ANUA Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam (150ml)

A few things make it well-suited for oily and breakout-prone skin:

• Salicylic acid and the Anti Sebum P complex work inside the pores to clear out excess oil, helping with blackheads, whiteheads, and congestion.
• Heartleaf and quercetinol (a plant-derived antioxidant) help calm redness and irritation around active spots.
• The water-based foam formula gives a thorough cleanse without leaving skin feeling tight or stripped, which matters when you're cleansing regularly.

• Heartleaf Extract and Powder: soothes redness and irritation, with antibacterial properties that suit acne-prone or sensitive skin.
• Quercetinol (Quercetin): an antioxidant drawn from Heartleaf that helps calm inflammation and supports the skin barrier.
• Salicylic Acid and Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (BHAs): gently exfoliate inside the pores to help clear blackheads, whiteheads, and excess oil.
• Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid Complex: draw moisture into the skin so it doesn't feel tight or dry after cleansing.
• Evening Primrose Flower Extract: calms irritation and supports barrier repair.
• Vitamin E (Tocopherol): antioxidant protection against everyday environmental stress.
• Gentle surfactants (Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate, Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate, Coco-Glucoside, Sodium Cocoamphoacetate): create the foam that lifts away impurities without stripping the skin.

Quercetinol is ANUA's own compound derived from Heartleaf (Houttuynia Cordata), a plant well known in K-beauty for its soothing properties. In this cleanser it works as an antioxidant that:

• Helps calm redness and irritation
• Soothes acne-prone or sensitive skin
• Supports a stronger skin barrier over time

Yes, it works for dry skin. The formula suits all skin types and contains hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid and beta-glucan to help maintain moisture. It's lightweight, so you can easily layer a richer moisturiser on top without any heaviness.

Generally yes. It's formulated to soothe redness and calm irritation, with heartleaf and quercetinol both known for their calming properties. That said, it does contain fragrance, so if your skin is very reactive or fragrance-sensitive, patch test before committing to full use.

Yes, it's still one of our most talked-about cleansers. It consistently gets highlighted for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin, particularly for anyone dealing with visible pores or blackheads.

The ingredient list doesn't include any obvious animal-derived ingredients, but we can't guarantee it's fully vegan. There may be processing aids or trace ingredients that aren't disclosed on the label. If this is important to you, we'd recommend reaching out to ANUA directly for confirmation.

Yes, it works well for all of those concerns.

• Suitable for teens and acne-prone skin
• Formulated for oily to combination skin types, including sensitive skin
• Helps lift blackheads and whiteheads and gently exfoliates, which can help with bumpy texture
• Works as a water-based cleanser, so use it as your main face wash or as the second step after an oil cleanser in a double-cleanse routine
