Product Description:
The Pyunkang Yul Acne Facial Cleanser is specifically designed for acne-prone and sensitive skin, offering deep and efficient cleansing without damaging the skin barrier. It prevents excess sebum, removes impurities, and combats bacterial growth within the pores while delivering anti-inflammatory benefits. The cleanser also helps eliminate blackheads and whiteheads, protecting the skin from external irritants with its mild yet effective formula. Key ingredients such as salicylic acid (BHA) and tannin from white willow extract work to exfoliate dead skin cells, control sebum production, and leave the skin feeling refreshed and smooth.

Ingredients Details
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Common Name(s): Capb,cocoamidopropyl betaine,coconut betaine
CAS Number: 61789-40-0
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Boosts foam, enhances mildness, and conditions skin and hair when combined with primary surfactants.
Why It's Used: The standard foam booster and mildness enhancer in virtually all shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers โ provides synergistic mildness improvement with anionic surfactants.
How It Works: Amphoteric (zwitterionic) character provides positive charge interaction with hair keratin for antistatic conditioning. reduces irritation of co-formulated anionic surfactants via ionic complex formation. foam stabilization via bilayer reinforcement in foam lamellae.
Typically Found In: Shampoos,body washes,facial cleansers,baby products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ amphoteric surfactant
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 2%โ15%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ from coconut fatty acids and dimethylaminopropylamine
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Commercially produced for cosmetic use. verify vegan/halal status with supplier.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Good safety profile at recommended concentrations. ewg score: 1โ2.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Capb's mildness-enhancing synergy with sls has a molecular mechanism: capb's positive imidazoline head group forms an ion pair complex with sls's anionic sulfate group, reducing sls's free monomer concentration (the irritation-causing species) without significantly reducing micelle-forming capacity (the cleansing species).

Dimethyl Sulfone
Common Name(s): Msm,organic sulfur,anti-inflammatory sulfur
CAS Number: 67-71-0
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides anti-inflammatory organic sulfur for skin strengthening from msm.
Why It's Used: Bioavailable organic sulfur anti-inflammatory โ msm provides the sulfur required for keratin disulfide bonding and collagen sulfur amino acids alongside anti-inflammatory activity, making it a functional sulfur supplement for both structural skin proteins and inflammatory skin conditions.
How It Works: (ch3)2so2: highly bioavailable sulfur. anti-inflammatory: nf-kb inhibition + oxidative stress reduction. keratin: disulfide bond sulfur source. collagen: methionine + cysteine content. anti-acne: anti-inflammatory + antimicrobial. oral supplement: joint pain, anti-inflammatory. topical: skin brightening + anti-inflammatory.
Typically Found In: Anti-inflammatory skin care,strengthening products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ cosmetic active
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Good safety profile at recommended concentrations. ewg score: 1โ2.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Msm sulfur bioavailability: msm's dimethyl sulfone form provides sulfur without the digestive hydrogen sulfide issues of inorganic sulfates. topically, msm penetrates sc readily from low mw (94 da) + high oil-water partition compatibility, delivering sulfur to dermis for keratin/collagen synthesis cofactor function. this combination of sc penetration + sulfur bioavailability makes msm the most practical topical sulfur supplement.

Disodium Cocoamphodipropionate
Common Name(s): Amphoteric surfactant,mild broad ph stable,conditioning co-surfactant
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides amphoteric mild cleansing with broad ph compatibility.
Why It's Used: Amphoteric ph-flexible surfactant โ the ability to adopt cationic, zwitterionic, or anionic character depending on ph provides inherent compatibility with all other surfactant charge types and low irritation from reduced net charge density at cosmetic formulation ph.
How It Works: Fatty chain + amino acid derivative + amphoteric chemistry. ph-dependent character. mild. broad compatibility. low irritation. baby/sensitive suitable. conditioning.
Typically Found In: Mild cleansers,baby products,sensitive skin

Glycerin
Common Name(s): Glycerol,glycerine,1,2,3-propanetriol
CAS Number: 56-81-5
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Glycerin pulls water from the environment and deeper skin layers into the outer skin layer (epidermis), boosting moisture levels and keeping skin soft, smooth, and plump.
Why It's Used: It is used in virtually every moisturizer, serum, and cleanser because it is highly effective at hydrating skin, is well-tolerated by all skin types, and enhances the texture and spreadability of formulations.
How It Works: As a humectant, glycerin forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules, trapping them in the skin. it also reinforces the skin barrier by integrating into lipid structures between skin cells.
Typically Found In: Moisturizers,serums,cleansers,toners,sheet masks,sunscreens,body lotions,shampoos,conditioners
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Humectant
Secondary Functions: Skin barrier support,emollient,solvent
