beplain Mung Bean Pore Clay Mask
Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-22
What is this product?
A 120 ml rinse-off clay mask from the Korean brand beplain, built on six clay minerals and five separate mung bean materials. This record does not state a single ingredient list for it, because the brand's own product page and the statutory notice blocks on two commerce listings disagree: the brand lists 47 materials with no levels, the two listings list the same 47 plus tocopherol and add five parts-per-million figures and a total clay percentage. Both readings agree on everything else, and both show water, mung bean extract, kaolin and bentonite, corn starch, a broad humectant set so the mask does not crack, calamine and allantoin for calming, niacinamide, three physical exfoliating powders, a protease enzyme, four more clay minerals and six essential oils. No fragrance entry on any reading, no exfoliating acid, no drying alcohol, and the statutory field files no functional cosmetic claim. The brand publishes two human application tests with named institutions, dated windows and 21 subjects each, reporting an immediate sebum reading and a smaller roughness figure after a single use. Label instruction is three to five minutes on dry skin, massaged over the T-zone and pore areas, then rinsed. Suits oily or congested skin; anyone reactive to essential oils should read the list, since fragrance-free here means no added fragrance compound rather than no aromatic material.
What makes it different?
The clay count is real and checkable, and it holds on every ingredient reading collected: the brand says six complex clay powders and both statutory lists carry exactly six clay minerals, kaolin, bentonite, canadian colloidal clay, manicouagan clay, illite and montmorillonite, with nothing padded. Five separate mung bean materials cover extract, powder, seed, whole plant and sprout rather than one material repeated. Two counterweights sit on the same labels. Six essential oils sit alongside a fragrance-free line, so that claim is accurate about added fragrance compound and silent about the aromatic materials present. And the brand's own page and the commerce listings do not agree on the ingredient list itself, which is why no single list is stated here.
