    • In the case of Mugwort Powder Wash, it is formulated weakly acidic so it can be used gently, but its cleansing power may be somewhat insufficient to remove all makeup products.partly backed
    • Mugwort Powder Wash contains papain enzyme and is a weakly acidic cleansing product effective at removing unnecessary flakes and impurities, and it is a product you may use every day.overstated
    • Papain enzyme is contained about 3 times higher than in an ordinary powder wash, so you can feel a smooth skin texture with just one use, and you may also lather it on areas that need flake care, leave it on for 30 seconds and use it as a foam pack.no supporting source found
