[haruharuwonder] Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel 100ml
Product Overview
A gentle, low-pH cleansing gel designed to remove everyday impurities while helping skin remain comfortable and hydrated after cleansing.
With a skin-friendly pH of approximately 5.5, the formula uses mild cleansing agents alongside glycerin, fermented black rice extract, beta-glucan and trehalose. Its soft gel texture creates a light lather that cleanses without relying on a traditional high-pH soap base.
This makes it particularly well suited to the Glass Ritual Hydration Collection as a gentle daily water-based cleanser.
Why We Chose It
Glass Ritual chose the Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel because dehydrated skin does not benefit from repeatedly being cleansed until it feels tight or squeaky.
Its mildly acidic formula combines cleansing with a strong humectant and conditioning profile. Glycerin is the second ingredient, while propanediol, pentylene glycol, beta-glucan and trehalose provide additional hydration support.
Fermented black rice, bamboo and ginseng ingredients provide further skin-conditioning support.
Most importantly, it gives the Hydration Collection a gentle water-based cleansing option for customers who want effective daily cleansing without an unnecessarily aggressive formula.

Who It's For
May be suitable for:

Even gentle cleansers should be adjusted according to individual skin needs. Very dry skin may not require a full cleanser every morning.
How to Use
Wet the face and hands with lukewarm water.
Dispense an appropriate amount into wet hands and gently work into a light lather.
Massage over the face for approximately 30 seconds without aggressive rubbing.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and gently pat the skin dry.
Use morning and/or evening according to your skin's cleansing needs.
When double cleansing in the evening, use after an appropriate cleansing oil or cleansing balm.
Ritual Position
Morning:
Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel → Toner → Essence/Serum → Moisturiser
Evening when double cleansing:
Oil/Balm Cleanser → Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel → Toner → Essence/Serum → Moisturiser
Glass Ritual Pairing
This cleanser pairs particularly well with a hydration-focused toner or essence immediately after cleansing.
For dehydrated skin, follow with humectant ingredients such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid or beta-glucan, then finish with a moisturiser appropriate for your skin type to help reduce moisture loss.
The goal is not to add as many hydrating layers as possible. Choose the layers your skin actually needs and observe how it responds.

Safety & Ingredient Information
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if persistent irritation develops.
Patch testing may be appropriate for particularly sensitive or reactive skin.

Glass Ritual Note: A cleanser does not need to make skin feel extremely tight to be effective. Within a hydration-focused ritual, cleansing should remove what needs to be removed while preserving a comfortable foundation for the hydrating products that follow.
