Arencia Rice Cake Cleanser with LHA is a creamy cleanser with a stretchy texture inspired by rice cake, designed to cleanse the skin effectively while purifying pores from excess oil and impurities, removing accumulated surface skin cells, and improving the appearance of texture and pores. Its formula combines LHA, Salicylic Acid, and rice ingredients to provide gentle cleansing and exfoliation that helps maintain clearer and smoother-looking skin without relying on harsh scrubbing.

Its thick and stretchy texture transforms when mixed with water into a soft creamy foam that helps remove dirt and accumulated sebum from the surface of the pores, while ingredients such as glycerin, panthenol, allantoin, niacinamide, and sweet almond oil provide support for hydration and skin comfort during cleansing. The formula also contains rice bran water, rice extract, rice ferments, and heartleaf powder to support skin softness and a balanced-looking appearance, making it especially suitable for skin with congested pores, excess sebum, and uneven texture, with the possibility of use for different skin types according to their tolerance to exfoliating acids.

Usage Tips from Beauty Time:

• The Beauty Time team recommends lathering a small amount of cleanser well with water before applying it, to get a creamy foam that helps cleanse without the need for strong rubbing.
• Dry the skin by gently patting, then follow with the suitable toner or serum and moisturizer.
• For oily and combination skin, focus gentle massage on the nose, forehead, and chin, where oil buildup and visible pores usually increase.
• Although the product is designed for all skin types, Beauty Time recommends that sensitive skin or dry skin start by using it once daily or several times weekly, then adjust the frequency according to tolerance.
• Avoid leaving the cleanser on the skin for a long time or massaging it strongly; the presence of Salicylic Acid and LHA makes gentle and short cleansing sufficient in most routines.
• If you are using retinol, AHA, BHA, or strong exfoliants in the same routine, monitor the skin’s response and reduce cleanser frequency if dryness or excessive tightness appears.
• After cleansing, use a moisturizer that supports the skin barrier, especially if your skin is dry or you use other active ingredients.
• For skin prone to blackheads and congested pores, Beauty Time emphasizes maintaining a balanced routine instead of over-exfoliating, because too many exfoliants may cause dryness and irritation.
• When using exfoliating products within your skincare routine, make sure in the morning to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen and maintain sun protection.
• If the skin feels persistent burning, visible redness, or excessive peeling, stop use temporarily and focus on hydration until the skin regains comfort.
• To get the best balance between cleansing and comfort, Beauty Time recommends using lukewarm water instead of hot water, which may increase skin dryness.
