Description

Collagen for firmness and retinol for texture, in a bar you use at the sink rather than a cream you have to remember at eleven at night.

A retinol soap is a gentle way into retinol, because the contact time is short: it goes on and comes straight off. That makes it a sensible first step if a retinol cream has stung before.

What is in it

A collagen soap with retinol worked through it. It lathers well and rinses clean rather than leaving a film, which matters when something is going on top of it.

The size of it

One bar. At one wash a day it lasts a couple of months.

Good to know

Keep it on a draining dish rather than in a pool of water; any bar left sitting wet disappears at twice the rate. Rinse the dish out weekly.

One of three korean cleansing bar options we carry from the same house, each aimed at a different thing — this is the one for anyone whose korean skincare has stalled on texture.

Why it is on the shelf

A gentle way into retinol, because a bar is on your face for twenty seconds rather than overnight. Start here if a retinol cream has stung before.

Most people meet retinol in a cream, react, and conclude it is not for them. Meeting it in a wash is the gentler introduction because the exposure is seconds rather than hours — a korean cleansing bar is the lowest-stakes way to find out whether your skin will take the ingredient at all.

Kkongju Skin Collagen & Retinol Soap — A cleansing bar with collagen and retinol, aimed at tone, texture and fine lines.

Three ways to use it

  • Evening — three or four nights a week to start, never in the morning.
  • Face only — keep it away from the eye area entirely.
  • Paired — with a plain moisturiser, not with another active on the same night.

Before you buy it

A retinol soap is a gentler way into retinol because the contact time is short — it goes on and comes straight off — but it is still retinol. Build up slowly, moisturise every time, and wear sunscreen the next morning without exception. Do not use it on the same evening as an acid or a retinol cream. If your skin is peeling or already irritated, leave this korean cleansing bar alone until it has settled.
