ARENCIA Hyssop Sebum Control Rice Cake Cleanser 5.29 oz — AHA & Tea Tree for Oily/Combination Skin, Makeup-Removing Daily Wash

ARENCIA Hyssop Sebum Control Rice Cake Cleanser is a gentle daily face wash with a soft, rice cake–inspired texture that removes makeup, lifts excess oil, and helps refine pores without stripping moisture.

This cleanser blends a unique tactile experience with targeted ingredients to address oily and combination skin concerns. Its soft, slightly chewy formula mimics the density of a traditional rice cake to provide a mechanical yet delicate clean, while AHA and tea tree extract work alongside to assist in oil balancing and skin surface renewal. Packaged in a handy 5.29 oz (150 g) tube, it fits easily into a morning or evening routine and replaces multiple steps by acting as a makeup remover, pore cleanser, and daily face wash.

How does the rice cake texture improve cleansing?

The sponge-like, chewy texture helps dislodge makeup, sunscreen and surface impurities without harsh scrubbing. It creates light friction that feels soothing, letting the ingredients penetrate more evenly across the face.

• Soft, tactile formula lifts dirt and makeup gently
• Mechanical action reduces need for abrasive cloths or heavy scrubbing
• Even application helps active ingredients reach pores
• Designed to rinse clean without sticky residue

What role do AHA and tea tree play for oily or combination skin?

AHA promotes gentle surface exfoliation to help smooth texture and reduce buildup, while tea tree extract contributes a clarifying effect often preferred for oil-prone complexions. Together they support a clearer-looking skin surface without over-drying when used as directed.

• AHA assists with gentle skin surface renewal
• Tea tree extract helps manage excess sebum appearance
• Formulation balances cleansing power with hydration retention
• Suitable for routine use on oily and combination types

Will it remove makeup and clean pores in one step?

Yes — the formula is designed as a 3-in-1 product that functions as a makeup remover, pore cleanser and daily face wash. For heavier or waterproof makeup, a pre-cleanse oil or balm may be helpful, but the rice cake texture and active blend will remove most everyday products effectively.

• Removes light to moderate makeup and daily sunscreen
• Helps clear surface impurities from pores
• Leaves skin ready for toner or treatment serums
• Rinses off cleanly without tightness when used properly

How should I use it for best results?

Apply a small amount to damp skin, massage in gentle circular motions to allow the texture to work, then rinse thoroughly. Use once or twice daily depending on skin tolerance, and follow with your usual hydrating or treatment steps.

• Dispense a pea-to-nickel size onto wet hands
• Massage onto face for 30–60 seconds, focusing on T-zone
• Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry
• Follow with moisturizer and sunscreen in the morning
