Mediheal Madecassoside Moisture Calming Cleanser

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

What is this product?

Mediheal's 마데카소사이드 클렌저 [수분진정] is a 120ml saponified foam cleanser with thirty-one ingredients, carrying no Korean functional-cosmetic filing. A hydrogenated palm acid and potassium hydroxide pair forms the soap base, with an amino-acid surfactant alongside it and a four-part humectant tail including three hyaluronic acid forms. The brand prints one concentration voluntarily on the Korean statutory block: madecassoside, the ingredient in the product's name, at 20 ppb at position 29 of 31, and it is the only centella-derived entry present. The brand's English storefront carries four quantified efficacy figures, two of which exceed 100 percent as reductions, and names no study for any of them. No pH is published on either surface despite a pH-balanced claim.

What makes it different?

Two things a reader can act on. The brand discloses the concentration of the ingredient the product is named after, 20 ppb, which is a level at which the name is branding rather than dosing, and it is the only centella entry in the list. And the same brand describes the same unit in two incompatible registers depending on language: a soap-based cleanser with no claimed function on the Korean statutory page, and a set of two-decimal efficacy percentages with no cited study on the English one.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

Key ingredient

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.

We could not place these in the list above: 연필향나무오일, 광곽향오일, 불가리스쑥오일, 로즈마리잎오일, 글리세릴스테아레이트, 호호바씨오일, 레시틴
