Review of HYGGEE's pH Hyaluron Gel Cleanser
HYGGEE is a Korean brand that is “a minimum skin care program designed to promote skin renewal and create a balance between oil and moisture.” Their pH Hyaluron Gel Cleanser is designed and formulated for sensitive skin, but is still tough enough to remove excess oil and impurities without drying the skin. Key ingredients include: 1,000ppb of sodium hyaluronate (anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, hydrating, moisturizing, healing), 100ppb of hydroxypropyltrimonium hyaluronate (deeply hydrating, improves skins elasticity, enhances skin's barrier function, smoothing, helps retail moisture effectively), 10ppb of sodium acetylated hyaluronate (provides long lasting hydration, improves skins elasticity, penetrates more deeply than hyaluronic acid, ideal for dry environments), 10ppb of hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid (designed to penetrate the skin easier, stimulates collagen synthesis, moisturizing), 2.5ppb of hyaluronic acid (retains moisture, aids collagen synthesis, anti-aging), 1ppb of sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer (provides long-lasting moisture effects, increase skin’s elasticity, reduces skins roughness), 1ppb of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate (powerfully hydrating, provides long-lasting moisture, reduces wrinkles and fine lines, enhances skins elasticity), 0.2ppb of potassium hyaluronate (enhances appearance of dry and damaged skin, reduces flaking and restoring suppleness, helps plump up skin), and evening primrose oil (improves skin health, anti-inflammatory, reduces irritation and redness, moisturizing, anti-acne). This product retails for between $19-20 USD. You can get it here for $19.30 + shipping. You can use my code DMR1986 to save some money.

To quickly note, I received this for free from Picky and HYGGEE in exchange for my honest review.
The cleanser contains 200 ml (6.76 oz) and is fragrance-free.
The gel cleanser is clear and free of artificial colorants.
It lathers pretty well and it's very gentle.
It's not stripping or drying at all.
Recommended use is after foaming up with a small amount of water, gently cleansing using circular motions, and rinsing with lukewarm water. After using it, I enjoyed the cleanser. I do like gel-based cleansers, and this one did a great job of not stripping my skin or causing any dryness or irritation. It’s lovely that it’s fragrance-free. The packaging is very functional and has a pump with a lock mechanism for easier transportation. There are no negatives, but I wouldn’t suggest it on its own for makeup, especially if your makeup use is on the heavier side. I think it removes sunscreen well, and it works well as a morning cleanser. I'd recommend this to anyone with sensitive and dry skin.
What I like: as mentioned, it's fragrance-free and very sensitive skin-friendly. It has great ingredients minus any irritants, and it is very gentle. It also contains a generous amount, as it is twice the size of most cleansers. It's a great cleanser for sunscreen and morning skin care. What I don't like: it doesn't remove makeup well on its own.
Pros:
Gentle
Hydrating
Non-stripping
Fragrance-free
Sensitive skin friendly
Generous amount included
Functional packaging
Cons:
Not ideal for makeup removal
Would I buy this?
Yes
