| Verdict | Beplain's hero cleanser and one of Olive Young's top-selling K-beauty cleansers. 33% mung bean (Vigna radiata) seed extract + amino-acid surfactants (Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate + Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate) for a low-pH gel-foam texture that doesn't strip the barrier. The mung bean lineage gives Beplain a distinctive ingredient story in a category dominated by centella/heartleaf brands. | This is the cleansing oil that converts cleansing-oil skeptics. Unlike thick, heavy oil cleansers that leave a film, Ma:nyo's Pure Cleansing Oil has the viscosity of water — it flows onto skin, dissolves makeup and sunscreen on contact, and emulsifies so completely that it rinses to nothing. The squalane base is non-comedogenic, making it one of the few oil cleansers genuinely suitable for acne-prone skin. It became a viral hit on Korean beauty YouTube for good reason. The light fragrance is the only mark against an otherwise excellent formula. |
