LANEIGE Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cleansing Foam: Hydrating Cleanser for Dry Skin

LANEIGE's Water Bank Blue line is the brand's hydration pillar, built around blue hyaluronic acid (LANEIGE's proprietary HA complex). The Cleansing Foam extends that hydration focus to the cleansing step, an area where most products strip rather than hydrate. For dry skin users who end cleansing with tight, stripped feeling, this is the alternative.

Hydrating cleansers occupy a middle ground between oil cleansers (no surfactant drying) and foam cleansers (thorough cleanse but drying). LANEIGE's version leans harder on hydration than most foam cleansers, making it suitable as a standalone cleanser for light makeup days or a second cleanse for heavy makeup days.

What It Does

Blue hyaluronic complex maintains hydration during cleansing. Gentle surfactants clean without stripping. The foam texture provides thorough cleansing feel without drying. Post-cleanse skin feels soft and hydrated rather than tight.

Mild fragrance. Not fragrance-free. Fragrance-sensitive users should test.

How long does 150g last?

2 to 3 months with twice-daily use.

Can I use for body too?
