Hi there!
I’m obsessed with Korean cleansers so much, that I have absolutely no desire to use any American or European products anymore. They are now available in such a huge variety: cleansing oils, foaming gels, sticks, etc. Today I’d like to talk about the latter type and namely about the extremely popular Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick.
Almost all Korean beauty gurus are raving about this stick, let alone us, average Joes.
General information:
Weight: 80 g
Shelf life: 1 year
Made in Korea.
Product description:
It is a mild cleansing stick which contains rose petals from nature. It enables you to massage on your skin softly.
Packaging:
The product comes in a quality cardboard package. It’s red and has golden lettering. Everything looks really decent and exclusive.
About the stick:
The cleanser itself comes in a firm milky-pink tube made of plastic. The packaging is travel-friendly. It’s also noteworthy that such a concept is quite rare and only the NEOGEN Real Fresh Green Tea Cleansing Stick is probably on par.
The cap opens without fuss and closes tight easily.
The stick twists up and back down.
Bluntly speaking, the cleanser is a white soap with real dried rose petals inside.
The product goes really far, so it can survive a year at least. Here is the amount left after 6 months of use.
Ingredients:
Glycerin, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Water, Stearic Acid, Lauric Acid, Lauryl Betaine, Potassium Hydroxide, Betaine, Rosa Centifolia Flower (0.5%), Perfume, Camellia Japonica Seed Oil, Tocopherol, Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil, Saccharomyces/Rosa Damascena Flower Extract Ferment Filtrate (0.01%), Ocimum Basilicum (Basil) Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil, Origanum Heracleoticum Flower Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil Expressed, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil
The manufacturer claims that the ingredients are almost all-natural. In general, there are only flower, citrus and vegetable oils. Also, it has the fermented damask rose extract.
How to use:
Twist up the cleanser by turning the bottom of the tube to reveal enough product.
Swipe over damp skin and then massage with your hands to lather.
Rinse with lukewarm to cool water.
Texture:
As I’ve already mentioned, it’s a soap. You should rinse your skin with water before use and apply this stick a few times. The rose petals are absolutely not noticeable on the skin.
The cleanser lathers very easily, but it doesn't give rich foam. However, it's a very gentle and nice foam that doesn’t dry out my skin. It cleanses my skin very delicately and thoroughly without making it squeaky clean, which breaks the protective layer of my skin. It doesn’t wash off on the first try, I have to rinse it with water a few times.
By the way, the product smells like roses. It’s not like a cheap and artificial fragrance, but a real rose scent that gives me much pleasure when applying.
When to use:
I recommend you use it as a final step in your skincare routine. I mean:
First of all, remove your makeup with a cleansing oil.
Use foaming cleanser, micellar water, etc.
When your skin is totally free from makeup, use this stick.
I don’t see any sense to waste this awesome product and use it for removing makeup. However, the manufacturer says you can do it safely.
My experience with the cleanser:
Hands down it’s the best cleanser I’ve ever used. The product is very convenient and nice to use. It doesn’t dry out my skin or cause any irritation.
The procedure turns into a real spa treatment due to the rose petals and amazing scent.
This stick will be good for girls with oily and normal to sensitive skin. As for dry skin, I can’t say anything about it.
Thanks for visiting my review!
Feel free to ask me any questions! I’ll be happy to answer them.
