K-SECRET SEOUL 1988 Cica Cleansing Oil: A Soothing First-Step Cleanse
Product Overview
The K-SECRET SEOUL 1988 Cica Cleansing Oil is a gentle yet effective first-step cleanser designed to thoroughly dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities while actively caring for the skin. Formulated with a blend of calming botanicals and nourishing oils, it transforms the essential step of cleansing into a soothing ritual that leaves skin perfectly clean, comfortable, and prepared for subsequent care.
Key Benefits
· Thorough Yet Gentle Cleansing: Effortlessly breaks down long-wear makeup and waterproof sunscreen without harsh rubbing or stripping the skin.
· Soothes and Strengthens: Features a proprietary Pine Cica Complex alongside Centella Asiatica to calm irritation and support the skin’s natural barrier during cleansing.
· Maintains Skin Balance: Infused with probiotics (Bifida Ferment) to help reinforce the skin’s microbiome and maintain optimal hydration levels.
· Nourishing Oil Blend: Enriched with a combination of five plant-derived oils that cleanse while imparting softness, leaving no greasy residue.
Core Ingredient Science
· 1% Pine Cica Complex & Centella Asiatica: This synergistic blend is the heart of the formula. Pine Cica, derived from pine bark, is known for its potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Combined with the legendary skin-repairing benefits of Centella Asiatica, it works to instantly soothe sensitivity, reduce redness, and strengthen the skin’s resilience against environmental stressors.
· Probiotic Bifida Ferment: This fermented ingredient helps to balance the skin’s ecosystem. It supports the skin’s natural defenses, enhances moisture retention, and promotes a healthier, more radiant complexion over time.
· 5-Plant Oil Fusion (Macadamia, Olive, Grape Seed, Sunflower Seed, Jojoba): Each oil is selected for its unique properties. This blend ensures effective dissolution of oil-based impurities while providing essential fatty acids and vitamins to nourish the skin, ensuring it feels soft and supple after rinsing.
How to Use:
The Perfect Double Cleanse, Step 1
1. Start with dry hands and a dry face. Dispense 2-3 pumps of the cleansing oil into your palms.
2. Gently massage it over your entire face for 45-60 seconds, allowing the oil to melt away makeup and impurities.
3. Add a small amount of lukewarm water to your face. The oil will emulsify into a milky, lightweight texture.
4. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Your skin should feel clean, soft, and without any residue.
5. Follow immediately with your preferred water-based cleanser (Step 2) to complete the double cleansing routine.
