S.NATURE Aqua Rice Mildly Acidic Cleansing Foam

What is this product?

S.NATURE Aqua Rice Mildly Acidic Cleansing Foam is a mild 160ml second cleanse for sensitive skin: two amino acid surfactants with two amphoteric partners and citric acid, and no sulfate, no soap base, no fragrance and no drying alcohol among its 22 ingredients, which is what makes 약산성 a fair name. S.NATURE prints no pH number and no test data to prove it, though.

What makes it different?

An amino acid and amphoteric cleansing system with an acidifier and no saponification pair at all, sold under a rice line whose two rice inputs are disclosed at explicitly different doses, 4,180ppm of extract against 10ppb of powder. That is unusual openness for a mass-market foam, and it is also the clearest evidence that the rice story is positioning rather than payload.
