I’m so tired of single-use plastic bottles that last longer than my last relationship. Torriden gets it — this refill pouch for their Balance Low pH Foam Cleanser cuts waste by 70%.
The real flex? It’s not just eco-friendly theater. The pouch uses 90% less plastic than a standard bottle, and the formula didn’t get watered down to fit the sustainability tagline. That’s rare.
It’s a low pH (5.5) foam cleanser in a refill pouch. $14 for 150ml — cheaper than most bar soaps that destroy your barrier. I tried it because “balance” usually means boring, but the pH claim made me curious.
7-Free Formula
No sulfates, no essential oils, no fragrance. Your sensitive skin won’t throw a tantrum.
Refill Mechanism
Snip the corner, pour into your old bottle. Takes 10 seconds, zero mess.
Low pH 5.5
Keeps your acid mantle intact while still foaming. Witchcraft? No — just good chemistry.
Korean mom-and-pop lab energy. No trendy extracts that do nothing. Instead: hydration from panthenol, soothing from allantoin, and that’s it — no 47-ingredient list to decode.
- Panthenol: Locks in moisture without greasiness
- Allantoin: Calms redness instantly — like a chill pill for your face
- Disodium EDTA: Keeps the formula stable so it doesn’t go funky
- Citric Acid: Adjusts pH without stripping
Gel texture that foams into clouds — not the suffocating kind, the airy kind. Rinses off in 3 seconds flat. No film, no squeak. First wash felt almost boring because nothing happened. That’s the point.
Week 3: my oily T-zone stopped producing enough oil to fry an egg. The surprise? It didn’t dry me out — my cheeks stayed plump. A low pH cleanser that actually hydrates. Press release would never say that.
Breakouts? Down 60% in 2 weeks. Redness? Toned down. Pores? Still there — stop lying to yourself. My skin just looks… calm. Not glass-skin perfect, but not angry.
This isn’t a revolution — it’s just a really good cleanser that doesn’t trash the planet. Buy it if you want your face and conscience clean.
