ARENCIA Fresh Royal Rosehip Cleanser 120g

Features

●        120g solid bar with a dense, kneaded mochi-like texture

●        Glycerin sits first on the ingredient list, ahead of water

●        Rosa Canina fruit extract, the rosehip the product is named for

●        Aloe Barbadensis leaf extract and chamomile extract in the formula

●        Sweet almond seed powder and rice powder give a very mild polish

●        Amino-acid-derived cleansing agents rather than sulfates

●        Contains added fragrance

Concerns

●        Skin that feels tight and squeaky after cleansing

●        Rough-feeling texture across the nose and chin

●        Wanting a cleanser that doubles as a short cleansing pack

●        Reducing plastic packaging in the bathroom

Suitable For

●        Normal, dry, combination and sensitive-feeling skin

●        Daily morning and evening use

●        Anyone moving away from sulfate cleansers

●        Not the right pick if you only buy fragrance-free products

Made In

●        South Korea

●        Leaves skin feeling clean and fresh rather than tight, thanks to the glycerin-led base

●        Almond and rice powder give a gentle polish without the scratch of a scrub

●        Works as a daily wash or, left on for a minute or two, as a short cleansing pack

●        A solid bar means far less plastic than a bottled cleanser

●        120g lasts a long time compared with a tube at a similar price

●        Rinses fully with lukewarm water, so nothing is left sitting on the skin

1. Wet your face and hands with lukewarm water.

2. Rub the bar between wet hands to build a rich lather.

3. Massage the lather over the face in gentle circles, avoiding the eye area.

4. For a cleansing pack step, leave the lather on for one to two minutes before rinsing.

5. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow with your toner.

6. Use morning and evening, and store the bar somewhere it can dry between uses.

ARENCIA is a South Korean skincare brand known for solid, hand-kneaded cleansing bars with a distinctive squishy texture, produced through a long grinding and pressing process the brand calls its ASDT method. The approach is to keep formulas mild and plant-led, with rosehip, rice, and herbal versions across the line, and to use less packaging by working in solid formats. Its cleansers are made in Korea. Arencia Skincare is available in Canada at Cosmetics.
