The blend of madecassoside and licorice root helps soothe skin stressed by modern environments. Customers with reactive skin report it 'doesn't sting or cause redness' like other cleansers.

Creates A Smooth Base For Makeup

By addressing flakiness and dehydration, skin is prepped and even. Many say 'my foundation goes on so much better now' and doesn't cling to dry patches.

Saves Time In Your Routine

It's a 2-in-1 action: cleanses and delivers treatment-level hydration. Users love that they 'don't need to immediately slap on moisturizer' to avoid that tight feeling.

Feels Like A Luxurious Treatment

The rich, creamy lather transforms a basic step into a sensory experience. Described as 'a mini facial' that makes skincare feel like self-care, not a chore.

Works With Hard Water

Specially formulated to rinse cleanly without leaving a film, even in areas with mineral-heavy water that can exacerbate dryness.

Builds Long-Term Skin Resilience

With consistent use, the patented ceramide helps reinforce your skin's own barrier. Long-term users report their skin 'just feels healthier and less reactive' to daily stressors.

Agtheory was founded in Osaka by a team of cosmetic chemists who saw modern life—stress, pollution, hard water—constantly attacking skin's natural moisture. They asked: why must effective cleansing mean dryness? Their answer is Clear Wash Foam, engineered in a Japanese GMP-certified facility. The formula centers on a patented ceramide and a precise 1.0% dose of hyaluronic acid, chosen for its proven hydrating power over trendy alternatives. Every batch undergoes 23 stability and patch tests. It's not just a cleanser; it's a moisture-replenishing ritual. This commitment has made it a top-ranked hydrating cleanser in Japanese beauty forums for 3 consecutive years, praised for turning the daily wash from a chore into a treat for dry skin.

Agtheory Clear Wash Foam - Hydrating Japanese Cleanser for Dry Skin is formulated with a blend of key ingredients designed to cleanse gently while providing hydration and skin barrier support. Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate, a mild surfactant derived from coconut oil and amino acids, serves as the primary cleansing agent, effectively removing impurities without stripping the skin's natural oils, which is crucial for dry skin types. Glycerin, a humectant, attracts and retains moisture in the skin, helping to prevent dehydration and maintain a supple texture. Betaine, another humectant sourced from sugar beets, enhances hydration by drawing water into the skin cells and soothing irritation. Sodium Hyaluronate, a salt form of hyaluronic acid, penetrates deeply to provide intense, long-lasting moisture and improve skin elasticity. Ceramide NP, a lipid naturally found in the skin barrier, helps restore and strengthen the skin's protective layer, reducing moisture loss and improving resilience against environmental stressors. These ingredients work synergistically to offer benefits such as thorough yet gentle cleansing, enhanced hydration retention, improved skin barrier function, and a reduction in dryness and tightness, making this cleanser suitable for daily use on dry or sensitive skin.
