It was time. As I shook the white Tony Moly bottle and heard the splish and splash of what little liquid content was left inside, I knew that I could delay it no longer. I had enjoyed an era of peace, and now it was time. At that moment I knew that my time had come to buy a new cleanser.

While buying cleansers for most people is simply a trip to the store and maybe half an hour to peruse the options, for me is a whole ordeal equip with extensive scientific research, fact checking, ingredient chemical analysis, and the sacrifice of a virgin. My skin doesn’t like anything and has made it clear to me, on a number of occasions, that is super pissed that I had the gall to chose a product I didn’t know it wouldn’t like. So I peruse the aisles optimistically, naively hoping that I will find a product that will not irritate my sensitive skin, get rid of redness, moisturize the dryness, AND rejuvenate my skin so I don’t look like a 50 year old smoker. It’s the little things…

What I was using previously was a Tony Moly product and it was a foaming cleanser. It worked decently well, but wasn’t super gentle on my skin. On a scale from one to ten it was an ‘eh’. I took my experience with this product to be more careful about choosing another product. I’d done my research on gentle, moisturizing cleansers and I came up with CosRX. I wasn’t surprised since it is a heavily recommended product for those with very dry skin. So I purchased it from Amazon and was ready to give it a try (after spending countless hours checking the ingredients and reviews of course). Here’s my experience about a month into using this product! Hope it helps!

About the Product

pH Scale

Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser promises a low pH (meaning a gentle, non-acidic) cleansing product that also saturates your skin in moisture. My research on this product actually showed that on the pH scale it falls to a low 4.5-5. 7 being the lowest and 0 being the highest. It’s important for the pH scale to be low for sensitive skin because the lower the pH the more neutral the product is, meaning it meshes with your skin’s natural biological chemistry without much added acidity which can cause irritation.

Consistency and Smell

It is a light gel consistency that does not lather as easily as regular body soap, but that’s a good thing. It is very thin and watery, but glides on smoothly. It smells a lot like tea tree oil. It’s a bit strong at first but it dissipates within a few minutes.

My Review

Love. Love. Love. Keep in mind, I have not been paid to review this product and I did not receive this as a sample, so you are getting the raw truth (as always) from me.

This product works wonderfully!! It has soothed my irritation. I am not longer breaking out from whatever it was that broke me out, it has eradicated all the dry patches and flakes on my skin, and it has made my skin so soft! I am beyond happy with this product! I use this both morning and night, so I have given it ample opportunity to hate me, but it doesn’t! It’s absolutely the most gentle and moisturizing cleanser I’ve ever used. I truly don’t know how I survived so long without it. 10/10 for keeping me from looking like a 50 year old smoker.
