Review: Hada Labo Tamagohada AHA and BHA Cleanser / Face Wash (130g)

When I purchased the Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Lotion a while ago, it actually came attached with a small tube (50g) of cleanser from their AHA + BHA tamagohada range. Since many are still curious about the newly arrived Hada Labo products here, I've decided to do a review on their cleanser. Presenting you one of my favourite products of this month: Hada Labo's Tamagohado AHA + BHA Cleanser. Have you been searching a cleanser that exfoliates, prevents old skin buildup, yet still gentle for every-day use?

[ Directions/ How I Use It ]
From the label:
- Use twice daily. Squeeze sufficient amount onto your palm. Lather with water and massage onto face, using gentle circular motions. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

[ What It Does ]
- Gently exfoliates skin to remove impurities, dirt & oil
- Polishes away dullness and refines skin's texture for visibly clear, smooth and radiant skin
- Skin pH balanced. Low irritation.
- Free of fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol & colorant
(Special note: This should be used with a sunscreen product)

[ Review ]
If you learnt a bit of Japanese language,  then you know tamago refers to egg, and this cleanser can exfoliate cells to reveal smooth skin like beautifully peeled hard boiled egg. (^.*) Don't get what I mean? Watch the video below:

I have used other exfoliating/scrub cleanser and most are either too harsh (contains hard grains/ watnut shell bits) and too drying with a tightness feeling after washing. However, this one has a white creamy texture and there are no grains/ hard shell bits that may rip or scratch your skin. In fact, it feels like a normal cleanser! For any area that needs more exfoliating, concentrate on that area of the face more. Easy, right? (^^) You may use the Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Lotion after cleansing, like I do.

For a clean face, just use a bit of product and you can create a rich lather. After rinsing off with water, skin looks clearer and fairer. It is free of fragrances, mineral oil, alchohol & colorant. Yeah! suitable for my sensitive skin and it worked so well that I finished the 50g sample and bought a bigger tube Hada Labo Tamagohada cleanser of 130g. =)  Affordable yet effective. High Five (^^)/*

[ Would I Buy It Again ]
Rating: 9/10
Love this cleanser! My face looks clearer & fairer with daily use (I use this every evening), even though I didn't scrub at all. It doesn't cause breakouts and is not drying. However, because this cleanser removes old skin, remember to apply a sunscreen afterwards for sun protection for day use. This cleanser also has a foaming version (recently arrived), but I can't seem to find it anywhere yet. Perhaps I should try that after I finish this tube, eh?

(For those that have used this cleanser, did you like it?)

Lots of love, Eisse J
