A classic old-school drugstore foam wash. Because it utilizes traditional fatty acids saponified with Potassium Hydroxide, it has a high alkaline pH that foams intensely and strips surface oil very aggressively. While the inclusion of pure Tea Tree Oil offers excellent natural anti-bacterial benefits for active acne, the harsh surfactant base and added synthetic fragrance can leave the skin barrier feeling tight and squeaky dry. Best suited strictly for exceptionally oily teenage skin profiles.
An incredibly gentle, sulfate-free gel cleanser. Unlike the Foam or Deep Cleansing versions in the Aiken line, this formula entirely bypasses alkaline soaps. It relies on extremely mild amino-acid surfactants (Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate) and a massive Glycerin base to melt away surface impurities without stripping the delicate acid mantle. It is the absolute optimal choice for broken or compromised barriers.
A highly traditional, heavy-duty saponified foam cleanser geared toward brightening. Relying on a matrix of Myristic, Stearic, and Lauric acids neutralized by Potassium Hydroxide, it creates a massive, dense lather that forcefully strips away stubborn afternoon oil. While highly effective at cutting through intense grease, this alkaline base temporarily raises the skins natural pH. It includes Ascorbyl Glucoside for brightening and Tea Tree for acne defense, making it suitable for thick, robust, hyper-oily profiles.
The absolute gold-standard hydrating wash staple across pharmacy aisles in Malaysia. Rohto Mentholatum masterfully constructs this creamy wash around an optimized **4-weight Hyaluronic Acid matrix** mapped to a perfect physiological pH of 5.5. Bypassing aggressive sulfates and soap salts entirely, it relies on premium amino acid cleansing networks (Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate) to lift impurities softly. It keeps the critical intercellular lipid bricks completely undisturbed during the rinse step. The physical texture is a dense, pearlescent white cushion cream that lathers into an incredibly rich, micro-fine micro-bubble cream wash, leaving a noticeable humectant conditioning protective veil behind.
A traditional, heavy-lathering saponified foam wash. Because it utilizes Myristic and Stearic fatty acids reacted with Potassium Hydroxide, it has a very high, alkaline pH. Despite marketing claims targeting soothing benefits, the aggressive alkaline soap base will strip the natural acid mantle, leading to a tight, squeaky feeling. The inclusion of Niacinamide and Salicylic Acid in a rinse-off alkaline format offers limited biological contact time, while the Peppermint oil creates a cooling but sensitizing wash experience.
A superb non-foaming, lotion-to-milk cleanser that entirely respects the skin barrier. Bypassing heavy alkaline foaming agents and harsh sulfates, it utilizes mild Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate and fatty alcohols to lift daily grime softly. The inclusion of Squalane and 5 different Ceramides ensures the skin is actively conditioned during the wash. It leaves zero squeaky feeling, making it the ultimate safe haven for eczema-prone or retinol-burned skin profiles.
A highly purifying, saponified cream-to-foam cleanser upgraded with a modern brightening complex. It utilizes a heavy matrix of Myristic, Stearic, and Lauric acids neutralized by Potassium Hydroxide to create a massive, shaving-cream style lather that obliterates heavy oils. It features Niacinamide, Salicylic Acid, and Ascorbyl Glucoside to brighten the complexion and clear congestion during the wash phase. While excellent for robust, hyper-oily skin, the alkaline pH will temporarily breach delicate acidic moisture mantles.
A highly unique, rich emulsion cleanser. It bypasses standard transparent gel formats by utilizing a massive load of botanical oils (Sunflower, Soybean, Sweet Almond) bound by Cetanol to create a lotion-like wash. Surprisingly, it uses Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) as the primary surfactant, which is typically harsh, but entirely offsets its stripping potential by buffering it in the heavy lipid and Ceramide 3 matrix. It successfully cleanses without tightening, though the inclusion of Lavender and Rosemary oils makes it a slight risk for highly allergic profiles.
A traditional, heavy-duty saponified foaming cleanser designed to tackle stubborn congestion. It relies on a matrix of Myristic, Stearic, and Lauric acids neutralized by Potassium Hydroxide to create a massive, dense lather. The addition of Gluconolactone (PHA) and Salicylic Acid (BHA) provides mild chemical exfoliation during the wash phase, successfully dissolving oxidized sebum plugs for combination to oily skin phenotypes.
A massive everyday acne clearing favorite across Malaysia, celebrated for its unique ability to deep-clean pores without triggering tight pulling. Skintific masterfully structures this formula at a skin-friendly physiological pH of 5.5, deploying ultra-mild amino acid surfactants (Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate) instead of harsh foaming sulfates. Packed with a clinical **2% Salicylic Acid (BHA)** payload, it easily penetrates past thick surface sebum sheets to liquefy hardened oil plugs and comedones locally. Because it is re-fortified with **5X Ceramides** and Centella, it maintains lipid barrier stability flawlessly while clearing acne pathways cleanly.
A meticulously formulated purifying wash that refuses to compromise the skin barrier. It features a robust 2 percent Salicylic Acid load to actively dissolve keratin plugs inside the pore. To offset the astringency of the BHA, it employs an extensive 5-Ceramide matrix alongside Squalane and Centella. It utilizes SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate) as a significantly milder alternative to harsh SLS, providing a satisfying foam without the severe lipid destruction of traditional acne soaps safely.
A highly unique, dark-tinted low-pH gel cleanser. It steps away from standard alkaline soaps by using Ammonium Laureth Sulfate (a milder, large-molecule alternative to SLS) combined with Coco-Glucoside for a gentle, non-stripping lather. The activated charcoal acts as a mild absorbent for surface pollutants, while the staggering complex of 10 different berry extracts provides a massive antioxidant bath to neutralize environmental free radicals during the wash phase. It leaves the skin exceptionally soft rather than squeaky clean.
