Description
The ROUND LAB 1025 Dokdo Cleansing Gel is a gentle, hydrating cleansing gel formulated to remove makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities while supporting the skin barrier and preventing post-wash tightness. The key feature is its use of deep sea water from the Ulleungdo Island region (rich in minerals) along with multiple types of hyaluronic acid to deliver hydration even during cleansing.
It uses plant-derived, mild surfactants instead of harsh detergents, making it suitable for sensitive or compromised skin.
Size: 150ML
Skin Type
All skin types, including normal, combination, dry, and sensitive skin.
Particularly good for skin with weakened barrier, flaky dry patches, or skin that over-cleansing tends to leave tight or stripped — because this cleanser hydrates whilst cleansing.
Also suitable for skin that uses sunscreen/makeup and needs an effective but gentle cleansing step.
Key Benefits
Gentle cleansing without stripping: Uses mild surfactants and a gel texture that cleanses while preserving moisture.
Deep hydration support: Contains eight types of hyaluronic acid (or multiple forms) to lock in moisture even as you cleanse.
Mineral-rich deep sea water: Drawn from deep below Ulleungdo island, provides minerals like magnesium, calcium and others that support skin vitality and barrier health.
Soothing & calming: Includes ingredients like panthenol, allantoin, beta-glucan which support skin recovery and comfort.
Low-pH formulation: Helps maintain the skin’s natural acid mantle so the barrier is not compromised after cleansing

Pregnancy and Nursing Safe
YES
This cleanser appears safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding — especially given your skin’s need for gentle, barrier-supportive cleansing.
How to use
Wet your face with lukewarm water.
Pump 1-2 pumps of the gel cleanser into your hand. (Some references say “1-2 pumps” for the first use)
Gently spread the cleanser over your face and massage for ~30 seconds, focusing on areas with makeup/sunscreen/residue, and on the T-zone or areas of texture. Because your skin has flaky patches, use gentle motions (avoid excessive scrubbing).
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until all product is removed.
Pat your skin dry gently with a soft towel.
Immediately follow with your toner/essence (optional) and then your barrier-repair moisturiser/cream — very important for your weakened barrier.
Frequency: Use morning and night (daily) as your main cleansing step. On nights when you feel your barrier is especially fragile (flaky or irritated), this gentle cleanser is a good choice (you may skip any stronger cleansing or exfoliation on those nights).
Tip for your skin condition: Since you have flaky dry patches: After cleansing, apply your richer cream or targeted barrier-repair product on those patches before your usual product to ensure you support them. And since you also have occasional cystic acne, ensure your cleansing is always thorough (to remove residue) yet gentle (to avoid disturbing the barrier).
