The COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser is a gentle Korean gel cleanser with a mildly acidic pH of 5.0 to 6.0, formulated with Betaine Salicylate (BHA) and tea tree oil to remove impurities, control sebum, and protect the skin barrier without stripping moisture. This 150ml K-beauty bestseller is designed for daily morning and evening use, making it a trusted staple for sensitive, oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types in the UAE.
Why This Cleanser Works
A cleanser with a pH close to your skin's natural acid mantle (around pH 5.5) helps maintain healthy skin and protects the barrier from trouble-causing irritants. Most conventional foaming cleansers sit between pH 9 and pH 12, which can leave skin feeling tight, dry, or reactive. The COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser uses mild surfactants paired with botanical extracts to lift sunscreen, sebum, and pollution build-up while keeping moisture intact, leaving skin clean, smooth, and comfortable.
Ideal For
This low pH cleanser is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive, oily, combination, and acne-prone complexions. It is hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, and free from parabens, sulfates, and artificial fragrances. The pH-balanced formula is gentle enough for daily use in the UAE's hot, humid climate, and works well as a second cleanser after sunscreen-heavy days. Always patch test before first use, and pair with a hydrating moisturiser to maintain your skin barrier.
