ZEROID Intensive Facial Cream Cleanser

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-27

What is this product?

ZEROID Intensive Facial Cream Cleanser is a 180 ml pump cream to foam face wash from the Korean brand ZEROID, pitched at very dry, itchy and sensitive skin. Its 25 entry list leads with a mild isethionate and amphoteric surfactants in a cream base of glycerin, fatty alcohol and stearates, with panthenol and a soap salt further down, no fragrance entry and no exfoliating acid. Printed brand tests on this product show a 70 percent drop in an itch score over two weeks on 20 adults and a moisture gain against soap after one wash. A 73 percent redness headline does not match its own chart, which prints a 19.6 percent drop.

What makes it different?

A cream to foam wash for very dry and itchy skin whose itch result reproduces from its own printed chart, set against the brand's plain foaming cleansers; its redness headline does not.

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.

This brand publishes its ingredient list in Korean only. Names below are the matching INCI names from the Korean Cosmetic Association ingredient dictionary.

Worth a closer look

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