Why Acne Skin Needs Calming Care
Many acne cleansers focus only on removing oil and fighting spots. However, harsh cleansers can damage the skin barrier, leading to more breakouts and irritation.
This cleanser takes a different approach by:
-
Clearing pores with gentle BHA exfoliation
-
Calming inflammation with Centella ingredients
-
Maintaining moisture during cleansing
-
Supporting skin barrier repair
-
Reducing redness while fighting acne
The result is clearer skin without the dryness and irritation that strong acne treatments often cause.
What This Cleanser Does
This foaming cleanser focuses on gentle daily acne care. It removes dirt, oil, and impurities while keeping skin comfortable and balanced.
Key benefits include:
-
Gently cleanses acne-prone skin
-
Helps reduce pimples and redness
-
Controls excess sebum production
-
Calms irritated and sensitive skin
-
Supports skin barrier health
-
Leaves skin soft and fresh
The creamy foam lifts away impurities while calming ingredients soothe stressed skin.
The CentellAC-Rx Complex Explained
This cleanser features COSRX's patented CentellAC-Rx complex, which is based on Centella Asiatica. It includes three powerful calming compounds:
Asiatic Acid
Supports skin repair and helps strengthen the barrier. It calms inflammation and promotes healing.
Madecassic Acid
Helps reduce redness and soothes irritated skin. It supports the skin's natural recovery process.
Asiaticoside
Known for its soothing properties, it helps calm acne-related inflammation and supports healthy skin.
Together, these ingredients offset the drying effects of acne treatment, keeping skin comfortable.

-
Exfoliates gently during cleansing
-
Rinses away quickly
-
Lower irritation risk
-
Suitable for daily use
-
Safe for sensitive acne skin
The Centella complex further reduces any potential irritation from the BHA.
