REVIEW: TN [TEEN'S NATURE] Intensive Moisturizing Foam Cleanser ~
I hardly do any reviews about cleansers because I just feel that cleansers are pretty much all the same, Although I do believe that cleansing your skin well is one of the most important steps when it comes to skin care, I have never really found a cleanser that has 'wowed' me enough to call it my HG cleanser ~

Recently I have made a purchase on Ibuybeauti for the Teen's Nature Intensive Moisturizing Foam Cleanser as well as two other items from Teen's Nature.
They're not an extremely popular brand like Etude House, The Face Shop, Skinfood and etc but I have discovered this brand through Get it Beauty on one episode when Miss A's Suzy was the endorser/face. I envy her skin and she is extremely gorgeous, her skin is just amazing, she is what I call a natural beauty, so when I realized she uses TN products I also wanted to try them out as well ~ Now Kim So Hyun (a child actress) is the endorser of this brand I believe ~ and she also has amazing skin >.< ~ Although, she is quite young she is an amazing actress ^^ ~ who here has seen the drama 'Missing You?' with Micky YooChun and Yoon Eun Hye as the main actor and actress? she was playing the younger version of Eun Hye's character ^^


Here's a Get It Beauty Self video of South Korean Child Actress 'Kim So Hyun' using this item:


They have many ranges within this brand, the pink line is for dry skin, the blue line is for oily/combination skin, the green line is for acne prone skin, the baby face line is also for dry and for whitening, they also have a brightening/whitening line and a male's skincare line, as well as some extra stuff for your skin like sunscreens, BB creams, moisture creams and face mists ~

 I know I have repeatedly said I have 'oily/combination' skin but I decided to chose the pink line (Intensive Moisturizing) because my skin at the time was going through a very dry and rough stage and I prefer using a richer cleanser at night as I use a acne concentrated face wash during the morning (the one from TN acne line, which I purchased back last year but never got a chance to try it out ~ however, I don't think I will be doing a review on those products or I might just do a whole blogpost talking of all the products in one because I threw away all the box packaging when I was doing a major makeover to my room earlier this year...)

I don't necessarily believe that a product can be life changing but cleaning your skin is the priority step to getting clear skin and no one should over look that, unless you are the type of person that is blessed with perfect skin to begin with and can get away with just using water to wash your face (to all of you people out there, this review is not necessary for you and I am purely 100% jealous of all of you) ~


Such an adorable packaging ~ ^^

all the description about the product to ingredients list to instructions and precautions are all in Hangul...


Again no English ~ all in Hangul ~

Now onto the actual product ~ the packaging is fairly simple yet still cute ~ of course this brand not being a highly well known international brand they do not have much English on the packaging apart from the company name and what the product is and that it includes 'fruit extracts', other lines from TN has different 'extracts' like the acne line has 'herb extracts' which targets your skins needs

 the foam comes out in a gel type and when water is added to it, as with any type of gel cleansers and as the name suggests, it creates a foamy consistency ~
I wouldn't say that the foam is 'thick' or 'dense' but it makes quite a lot of foam if that makes any sense? XD ~ & it does a fairly good job at cleansing the skin ~

 The foam actually feels very silky and smooth when applied onto the face so I can see how this is a moisturizing type of foam cleanser ~ it didn't dry my skin out like a lot of other foam cleansers tends to do ~ if you have dry skin or more so like in my case, dehydrated skin, you will feel that after you have cleansed your face your skin will start to feel tight but with this cleanser it doesn't leave that feeling ~ but of course you should follow up with a skin lotion/emulsion/cream for extra hydration to protect our skin ~ I will dedicate a whole blogpost as to why we have to keep our skin hydrated, no matter what skin type we have when I do a review on a skin cream ~




The cleanser has quite a strong scent ~ it's not 'perfumey' though but it's not 'fresh' either... it smells fruity, well the packaging did state that it had fruit extracts, it's still got a mild touch of freshness to it though ~ don't worry it's not so bad that it would irritate someone unless you are uber sensitive to fruity scents... that I don't think I could help you on



As a tester I decided to apply some make-up onto my hand ~


The cleanser is in a gel form when squeezed out ~ be careful though because a lot of the times (like in this picture) you can squeeze out too much product >.< ~



Then add some water and it turns into a lathery foam ~

Jajang ~ after washing off the foam ~ As you can see you can still see the marks of my eyeliner I applied but let me tell you without a eye make-up remover or cleansing oil/balm/cream that eyeliner doesn't budge.. :/ ~

I've never used this cleanser to purely clean off any direct make-up ~ I usually use eye make-up remover and cleansing oil or cream to remove my make-up and then cleanse once again with this foam cleanser because that is the 'suggested' way of properly cleansing your skin ~ if your a follower of Korean, Taiwanese or Chinese/Hong Kong beauty shows they all recommend this and when I stayed in Hong Kong a few weeks ago and went into Laneige and Skinfood both the consultants who were assisting me directed me to try the 'double cleanse method'. Even though before I went on this trip I was already doing this lol ~
However, for the sake of this review I will do a make-up cleanse/removal test with this product ^^ ~

Fragrance: 3.8/5
Texture: 4/5
Oil Control: 1/5
Hydration/Moisturizing: 5/5
Cleansing Ability: 2.8/5

 Overall Comments:
Because this is not a cleanser that is meant to be targeted for those with oily/combination skin, do not expect any oil/sebum control ability within this product ~ as it is a 'intensive moisturizing foam cleanser' this provides more hydration than sebum control, if you have oily skin you can try using the blue line which I believe is called the 'moist line' if I am correct? please do tell me if I am wrong though ^^ ~
I also have oily skin but I use this only at night time to balance out my skin as I find if I use a 'acne targeted' cleanser or a cleanser that is formulated for oily/combination skin for both day and night my skin tends to dry out a lot quicker, and that will only cause your skin to produce more oil ~ so I try and balance my skins moisture level by using a richer cleanser at night time ~

 Although, I would say that the cleansing ability when used with my eye make-up remover and cleansing oil is pretty good, but if I was to use this alone to just wash off my make-up this will not do that great of a job ~ even on some days when I wear fairly heavy eye make-up (as in my mascara) and my cleansing oil and eye make-up remover hadn't completely removed everything ~ this won't remove any of that either and if you get this in your eyes... man it STINGS like no tomorrow >.<" ~

Again like I have said before, I don't think a cleanser can be a 'life changing' product and this is no exception also I don't know how some people can actually have a 'HG' cleanser, because to me literally EVERY cleanser that is made for the same skin type works pretty much the same for me, unless it's those brands that just doesn't clean your skin whatsoever... but let's not talk about those for now ^^

Would I Repurchase: No ~

 Do you have a HG cleanser that you swear by?

You can buy this cleanser HERE ~ ^^

 Take Care ~ ♥
