BRMUD Relief Mud Pack to Foam Cleanser

What is this product?

A 110 mL dual-mode mud cleanser that works either as a foam wash or as a one-minute rinse-off mask. Its adsorbent phase is disclosed, which is unusual: sea silt is printed at 3 percent at position five, with charcoal powder at nineteen. Four surfactants carry the detergency and there is no oil, butter, wax or film former among the 25 entries, so the finish is clean rather than cushioned. The brand's three-part promise of pore care, cleansing and moisture holds for the first two and has no mechanism behind the third in a rinse-off format. No pH and no test data are published by the brand, and the brand prints two different product names and two different manufacturers on the same page.

What makes it different?

Two things. First, the adsorbent is disclosed with a number: 씨실트(3%) is printed inside the ingredient list itself, which lets a reader place the mineral load rather than guess it. Second, the same brand page carries two ingredient lists that do not match and two product names that do not match, so the identity and the formula both have to be read from more than one place before either is trusted.

Did the ad claims hold up?

We checked 5 lines this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. One of them looks likely, though none are proven outright.
