Most pore-clearing foams leave sensitive skin feeling stripped and irritated — this one doesn't. Anua's Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam lifts congestion and dissolves excess sebum while heartleaf extract and quercetinol keep inflammation firmly in check.
A foam wash formulated to clear without aggravating, so sensitive and combination skin can actually enjoy a deep cleanse.
Plenty of pore cleansers do the job — by stripping everything in sight. Anua's formula goes deeper without the collateral damage.
Based on user testing with the Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam.
Wet your face, then work a small amount of the foam into a lather between your palms before massaging gently over your face for about sixty seconds — paying extra attention to the T-zone and any congested areas. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow with your toner or essence as usual.
Building confidence with clear answers to your concerns.
It's gentle enough for twice-daily use — morning and evening. If your skin is particularly sensitive or dry, once a day in the evening is a great starting point while your skin adjusts.
Yes — it's specifically formulated with sensitive skin in mind. The heartleaf extract has well-documented calming properties, and the formula avoids harsh sulphates that typically trigger irritation or redness.
No. Unlike stronger foam cleansers that leave skin feeling tight, this one is designed to cleanse without disrupting the skin barrier. Most users report a clean but comfortable feel immediately after rinsing.
Quercetinol is a quercetin-derivative that helps regulate sebum production and soothes inflammation around the pore lining. Over time, this leads to pores that look smaller and stay cleaner between washes.
Absolutely. The combination of pore-clearing action and anti-inflammatory heartleaf makes it a solid choice for acne-prone skin. It removes excess oil and congestion without the aggressive stripping that can sometimes worsen breakouts.
Most users notice their skin looking cleaner and less congested within the first week. A visible improvement in pore size and overall skin clarity tends to become more pronounced around the two-week mark with consistent use.
It works best as a second cleanse — after an oil-based cleanser or micellar water has removed sunscreen and makeup. It can be used as a standalone cleanse on days when you haven't worn SPF or heavy makeup.
Follow with a hydrating toner or essence to lock in moisture straight after cleansing. If you're targeting pores specifically, a BHA toner a few nights a week pairs particularly well with this foam before you apply your serum and moisturiser.
Real feedback from real customers.
My skin used to feel so tight after cleansing — this is the first foam wash that actually leaves it feeling balanced. My pores around my nose look noticeably less congested after about two weeks of using it morning and night.
I have combination skin that reacts to almost everything, and this has been a genuine game-changer. The lather is soft and cushiony rather than harsh, and my usual forehead redness is so much calmer. 🙌
Really lovely cleanser — it rinses off completely clean with no residue, and my skin feels fresh without that stripped sensation I used to get. I'd love a slightly larger tube for the price, but I'd still repurchase without hesitation.
I've been battling hormonal breakouts for ages and I noticed fewer new spots appearing within the first fortnight of using this. The scent is very subtle and clean — nothing overwhelming, which I appreciated.
This replaced a much more expensive cleanser in my routine and honestly does a better job. My skin looks brighter in the morning and the texture around my cheeks has smoothed out considerably since I started using it.
Soft, foamy, and it actually removes the day without me having to rub hard. My derm mentioned my skin's barrier looked healthier at my last check-up — I think switching to this cleanser had a lot to do with it.
A solid everyday cleanser that does exactly what it promises. My pores are less visible and my skin doesn't feel reactive after washing anymore. I just wish it foamed up a touch more easily, but the results speak for themselves.
I was sceptical about spending more on a cleanser but the difference is real — my T-zone stays less oily throughout the day and my blackheads have noticeably reduced. It's become a non-negotiable step in my routine.
