Is SoonJung pH 6.5 Whip Cleanser fragrance-free?

The current 14-ingredient formula contains no parfum, fragrance or essential oils, and ETUDE lists synthetic fragrance among the excluded additives. Because the formula is unscented rather than perfumed, its base ingredients can still have a faint natural smell. The stored directions also warn that direct sunlight or extreme temperatures may change that scent without meaning the product is spoiled.

Does it remove makeup and sunscreen?

This is best treated as a water-based face wash rather than a dedicated makeup remover. It can handle ordinary daily residue, but long-wear makeup and water-resistant sunscreen are more reliably removed with an oil cleanser or balm first. When double cleansing, place it after the oil cleanser as the second step. On bare-skin mornings, it can be used on its own.

How many pumps should I use?

ETUDE directs two to three pumps onto a wet face. Start with two; the bottle creates a full cushion of foam without hand-lathering, and a third pump is useful when cleansing the face and neck together. Massage gently rather than pressing harder for a deeper cleanse, then rinse completely with lukewarm water. More foam does not automatically mean better cleansing.

How is this different from the SoonJung pH 5.5 Foam Cleanser?

The pH 6.5 Whip Cleanser dispenses ready-made foam from a pump. The SoonJung pH 5.5 Foam Cleanser is a separate cream-to-foam product with a different formula, so the numbers do not make them interchangeable sizes of the same cleanser. Choose by texture and after-feel: the whip version minimizes hand-lathering, while the 5.5 cleanser must be worked into foam.

Can dry or sensitive skin use it?

ETUDE positions the cleanser for sensitive-feeling skin and uses a fragrance-free, mildly acidic formula. Many exact-product users describe it as mild, but some still report tight cheeks or a tacky after-feel. A foaming cleanser can still feel drying for some people. Begin once daily, rinse well and follow promptly with moisturizer; reduce use if tightness persists.

Are the 150ml and 250ml versions the same formula?

The 250ml bottle is the jumbo pump size. Its 14-ingredient list matches the current 150ml version, and the product's size guide presents 150ml, 250ml and a 150ml refill within the same family. The larger bottle changes the amount, not the current formula. As with any skincare product, check the package list again if ETUDE announces a future reformulation.

Can I use it morning and evening?

Yes, it can be used in either routine. In the morning, one or two pumps may be enough when there is little buildup to remove. In the evening, use it after a separate first cleanse when wearing long-wear makeup or water-resistant sunscreen. Skin that becomes tight with twice-daily washing can keep the cleanser to the evening and simply rinse in the morning.

PRODUCT DETAILS

ETUDE SoonJung pH 6.5 Whip Cleanser is a 250ml water-based face wash that dispenses as soft, ready-made foam. Because the pump creates the lather for you, it is easy to spread over damp skin without working the product between your palms.

The 14-ingredient formula uses Lauryl Glucoside and Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate as its cleansing pair. Glycerin, sorbitol and propanediol sit high on the list, while panthenol, madecassoside and green tea extract round out the formula with a comfort-focused skin-conditioning blend.

Choose it when you want a straightforward daily cleanser with a pH 6.5 formula, no added fragrance and no dense cream or scrub texture. The airy foam suits a simple morning cleanse or a second cleanse after an oil-based makeup remover. Water-resistant sunscreen and makeup may need that first step.

Pump two to three times, massage the foam gently over a wet face and rinse with lukewarm water. The finish is designed to feel mild, but very dry or reactive skin can still prefer once-daily use. Follow promptly with toner or moisturizer if skin tends to feel tight after rinsing.

Concerns & Benefits

Your Concerns

1
Sensitive Skin
Cleansing can leave reactive-feeling skin hot, prickly or uncomfortable.
2
Dehydration
Skin may feel tight and papery soon after rinsing, even before the next step.

How To Use

1Pump two to three times into clean hands and gently massage the ready-made foam over a wet face. Keep the pressure light, then rinse completely with lukewarm water and pat dry. Follow with the rest of your routine before skin feels tight.
2For long-wear makeup or water-resistant sunscreen, use an oil cleanser or balm first and make this the second cleanse. Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and extreme heat or cold; the fragrance-free base can develop a natural scent when stored poorly.

Frequently asked questions

What does pH 6.5 mean in a cleanser?

pH 6.5 means the formula is mildly acidic rather than alkaline. ETUDE uses that number as part of the product identity and positions the cleanser as a gentler option for sensitive-feeling skin. It does not mean the cleanser will suit every person or repair a damaged barrier on its own. Rinse thoroughly and judge it by how your skin feels afterward.
