K‑Secret Seoul 1988 Pine Cica 1% + Probiotics Cleansing Foam
Net Volume: 150 ml
Made in Korea
Ingredient | Function / Benefits |
---|---|
Pine Tree Extract (Pinus densiflora leaf extract, ~100 ppm) | Provides antioxidant properties; helps with calming redness and soothing skin. When paired with cica, it offers additional anti‑inflammatory benefits. |
CICA (Centella Asiatica Extract, also 100 ppm) | Known for its repair & healing potential, reducing irritation, strengthening weak or damaged skin barrier. Essential for sensitive or reactive skin. |
BHA (Salicylic Acid) | Lipid‑soluble acid that helps to penetrate into pores, dissolve dead skin cells and oil, treat blackheads and whiteheads, and smoother skin texture. Good for acne / sebum control. |
Probiotics Complex (e.g. Bifida Ferment Lysate, Lactobacillus Ferment, etc.) | Helps restore and balance the skin microbiome, improves barrier function, can reduce sensitivity and help skin defend itself. |
Humectants / Soothing / Botanicals (Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, etc.) | To retain moisture, soften the skin, and avoid the tight/dry feeling that many foaming cleansers produce. |
Foam Type: Produces a creamy, airy foam that lathers well enough to feel satisfying but remains gentle. Doesn’t strip away moisture.
pH‑Balance: It is formulated to be pH‑balanced so it cleans without disturbing natural skin acid mantle.
Scent: Mild botanical / herbal scent (from the pine, cica, and herbs). Not heavily perfumed. Good for people sensitive to heavy fragrance. (Though if you are extremely fragrance sensitive, always patch test.)
People with sensitive or reactive skin — the cica & probiotics help calm and repair.
Those with oily or combination skin, especially if prone to blackheads, clogged pores, excess sebum. The BHA and pine help with oil control without over‑drying.
Anyone wanting a daily cleanser (morning &/or night) that gives a deeper clean (especially at night) but is still gentle enough for everyday use.
Skin needing barrier support — e.g. after irritation, harsh weather, over‑exfoliation, etc.
Wet your face with lukewarm water.
Pump or squeeze a small amount (pea‑sized or according to your preference) into your hands, lather slightly.
Gently massage onto face in circular motion (especially where makeup, sunscreen, oil builds up: forehead, nose, chin). Spend ~30‑60 seconds.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Pat dry with a clean towel.
Follow with toners/essence/serum/moisturizer. (Using sunscreen in day routine is essential.)
You can use it twice daily (AM & PM) if your skin tolerates it; if skin is more sensitive, you might use only at night or alternate days.
If you are new to BHA or actives, start 2‑3 times per week to let your skin build tolerance.
Always patch test: apply a small amount behind the ear or jawline for 24 hours to check for any reaction.
Avoid contact with eyes; if it gets in, rinse thoroughly.
If skin feels tight, dry, or flaky, supplement with hydrating / barrier‑repair products (hyaluronic acid, ceramide creams).
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Combines modern skincare science (BHA, probiotics) with traditional / botanical soothing agents (pine & cica). This dual approach gives both efficacy & gentleness.
Larger size (150 ml) gives good value.
Designed with pH and barrier health in mind — not just harsh cleansing.
Good match for climates like Pakistan’s (hot, humid in many areas) where sweat, sebum, pollution accumulate more readily, so a cleanser that cleans deeply yet gently is especially useful.
Use double cleansing if you wear heavy makeup or sunscreen: first an oil / balm cleanser, then this foam.
Pair with gentle hydrating toners (e.g. ones with hyaluronic acid) and barrier‑repair moisturizers.
On nights when you use stronger actives (retinol, chemical exfoliants), it’s especially helpful to use a soothing cream afterward.
In hotter months, this can be your go‑to morning cleanser to remove overnight sweat/oil without over‑stripping. In cooler or drier months, ensure you compensate with richer moisturizers or sheet masks.
If you want a cleanser that heals and deeply cleans — to help with blackheads, redness, oily T‑zone, and also to keep your skin barrier strong — then K‑Secret Seoul 1988 Pine Cica 1% + Probiotics Cleansing Foam is a strong choice. It balances actives with botanicals, gives you the clean feel without the tightness, and is particularly good for Pakistani climates and skin concerns.
