"This has been my absolute holy grail cleanser for the past three years. [...] It's a beautiful oil, great for facial massage, and it emulsifies into a beautiful milk when you add water and rinses away without a trace, so it's the nicest cleansing experience you'll ever have. The glutathione helps at the margins with hyperpigmentation, and the scent brings the spa into your home without a luxury price point."

TOP 10 KOREAN SKINCARE 2025 - Ultimate K-Skincare *Unsponsored*

"It's spa because it's luxurious, it smells divine, and it gives you a really nice bougie feel without actually having to break the bank. It's one of the most effective oil cleansers I've ever tried. When you look at the quality oils they're using, it is so amazing, and when you look at the price point they're charging, I don't know how they make this so affordable with such a high quality formulation. But I love it."

Greatest KOREAN SKINCARE BRAND 2026 - This Hands Down Changed My Skin

"Absolutely gorgeous. It's like a spa in a bottle. One of the best cleansers because it contains glutathione. So if you apply this to the skin, work it in for say 60 seconds, that glutathione is going to get into the skin and actually start working on your hyperpigmentation. This is a great one to really kickstart your hyperpigmentation routine in the right way. I absolutely love it."

KOREAN SKINCARE AWARDS 2025 - Very Best Korean Skincare

"This is an oil cleanser and honestly the best I have ever ever tried. It's super affordable, which is one of the main reasons I gravitate towards Korean skincare brands. But it also really delivers. It'll remove water resistant SPF, makeup, dirt, debris, all gone like that. It feels luxurious. It feels spa-like. And that touch of glutathione really will help to fade hyperpigmentation in the long run. So, it's kind of one of those products that's just going to work for everyone."

KOREAN SKINCARE AWARDS 2025 - K-Skincare Of The Year 2025

"This has been a consistent favorite of mine throughout all three years and it's still going strong. [...] I've not been without it for the past 3 years. It helps with hyperpigmentation. It's a cleanser, so it's not going to be as transformative as say a leave-on treatment like a serum, but it's a nice way of boosting your hyperpigmentation skincare results by incorporating glutathione in your cleansing step. It's beautifully uplifting and invigorating. It's like a spa in a bottle."

KOREAN SKINCARE YOU CAN ACTUALLY TRUST - Life After The ANUA Azelaic Acid Scam

"This is still my favorite favorite oil cleanser. It smells like you're at the spa, it doesn't break the bank, and if you want something that brings the element of the sensorial, the spa-like into your routine at an affordable price point, there is nothing better than this. [...] My top tip is apply it to the skin, work it in, it turns into this beautiful oil, work it into the skin and then leave it on for 60 seconds, the glutathione in here is great for fading hyperpigmentation."

"I bought the Numbuzin Glutathione C Facial Spa Cleanser Number Five because I saw somebody on Reddit rave about it. This is [...] my third time trying it and I am not feeling this. The first two times I used it I needed a second cleanser, and I felt like it left a film behind. [...] I am not a fan of the smell, [...] it is very herbal. I am also not a fan of them calling this a fragrance free product when they list fragrance ingredients like lavender oil right below that, it is baffling."
