What is this product?

Buy this if a mild low-pH foam has been leaving sunscreen and sebum on the face, and skip it if the skin already feels tight after washing. SUISKIN Young Sprout Deep Cleansing Foam is a rinse-off Korean face wash sold in 80ml and 150ml, and it is one of the very few in its category that publishes a pH: the brand prints 약알칼리성 pH 9.5 to 10.5 in its own copy. The label backs that up, printing 하이드로제네이티드팜애씨드 immediately ahead of 포타슘하이드록사이드, which is a potassium-soap construction. The distinguishing ingredient is 카프릴로일살리실릭애씨드, an LHA that partitions into sebum, which is why the blackhead copy is more than decoration even though no level is disclosed and no test is published. Four sprout extracts supply the product name, 나이아신아마이드 and 아스코빅애씨드 sit in the tail, and 로즈마리잎오일 is the one aromatic entry. Best for oily, sebum-heavy and blackhead-prone skin. Dry, sensitive or barrier-impaired skin should choose a low-pH foam instead.

What makes it different?

Two things separate it from the rest of the cleansing-foam shelf. It publishes an actual pH range of 9.5 to 10.5 where competitors publish an adjective or nothing at all, and the range is high enough that the disclosure works against the brand's own marketing, which makes it credible. And it carries 카프릴로일살리실릭애씨드, a lipophilic LHA aimed at follicular keratin, in a category where the pore claim is usually made with clay, charcoal or nothing.

Did the ad claims hold up?

We checked 7 lines this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. None of them hold up on their own. They are partly right at best.
