RIMAN Incellderm Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX

RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX

Cleanse, purify, and gently exfoliate your skin with the RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX, a powerful yet gentle cream cleanser that transforms into a light, snow-like foam to remove impurities while enzymes purify and gently exfoliate the skin. This unique formula leaves skin feeling clean, fresh, and hydrated — not stripped — making it suitable for sensitive skin types used daily or as an exfoliating double-cleanse step.

Formulated with papain enzyme, soapberry extract (Sapindus Trifoliatus), coconut-derived cleansing agents, 5 types of hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid, jojoba oil, and propolis, this enzyme cleanser delivers a comprehensive cleanse with nourishing skin care built in. Papain (a natural fruit enzyme) gently dissolves dead skin cells and impurities without mechanical friction or harsh stripping. Soapberry and coconut-derived surfactants provide effective, naturally derived cleansing. Five forms of hyaluronic acid — from standard sodium hyaluronate to crosspolymer and hydrolyzed forms — maintain hydration throughout the cleansing process. Polyglutamic acid and propolis add further moisturizing and nourishing care.

The RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX is a great choice for anyone looking for a K-beauty enzyme cleanser, gentle exfoliating face wash, or a daily cleanser that leaves skin soft, bright, and comfortably nourished. Cruelty-free, naturally derived, and German Derma Test certified — passed both the Sensitive (Derma) Skin Test and Eye Irritation Test.

Overview

The RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX is a daily or bi-weekly enzyme cleansing treatment created to help gently remove impurities and dead skin cells while supporting a soft, hydrated, clear-looking complexion. As a cream cleanser that foams into a snow-like texture on contact with water, it bridges the gap between everyday gentle cleansing and active exfoliation — without the irritation risk of physical scrubs or leave-on chemical exfoliants.

How to use

Apply a nickel-sized amount to clean, dry palms. Add a small amount of lukewarm water and rub until the cream melts into a rich, snow-like foam. Gently massage the foam over the entire face. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. For daily cleansing, use every morning and evening. For a more exfoliating double cleanse, use 2–3 times per week as the second step after an oil cleanser such as the RIMAN ICD Moisture Cleansing Oil.

Why we love it

Most cleansers either cleanse well or feel gentle — rarely both. The RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX achieves both by centering its formula around papain — a proteolytic enzyme derived from papaya that works by breaking down the protein bonds holding dead skin cells to the surface, dissolving them away without any physical friction or harsh chemical action. The result is exfoliation that is genuinely gentle: no scrubbing, no tingling, no disruption to the skin barrier — just noticeably softer, cleaner skin after rinsing. The snow-like foam is another standout experience: the cream formula whips into a dense, light lather on contact with water, making the massage step feel luxurious while the enzymes and coconut-derived surfactants do their work. And RIMAN doesn't stop at cleansing — five types of hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid, jojoba oil, and propolis are built into the formula to keep skin nourished throughout the process. Passed the German Derma Test, the Sensitive Skin Test, and the Eye Irritation Test — certifications that reflect RIMAN's commitment to formulas that are as safe as they are effective. At BestSkincareUSA.com, it's one of our most distinctive RIMAN Korean skincare picks for anyone who wants exfoliation and cleansing in one gentle daily step.

Key ingredients deeper dive

• Papain enzyme — proteolytic exfoliation without friction — Papain is a naturally derived protease enzyme from papaya that cleaves the peptide bonds holding dead, keratinized skin cells to the surface — dissolving them enzymatically rather than physically abrading them away. This makes papain exfoliation significantly gentler than mechanical scrubs and suitable for sensitive skin types that react to physical exfoliants. In the RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX, papain works within the cleansing step itself — no additional leave-on exfoliating step required — leaving skin visibly smoother and brighter after rinsing.
• Soapberry extract (Sapindus Trifoliatus) and coconut-derived cleansing agents — natural, effective, non-stripping surfactants — Soapberry (soapnut) is a traditional natural cleansing ingredient rich in saponins that create effective yet mild foam without the harshness of synthetic sulfate surfactants. Paired with coconut acid, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, and Coco-Betaine — all coconut-derived gentle surfactants — the cleansing base of the ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX is naturally sourced, free of sulfates, parabens, and fragrance, and designed to cleanse thoroughly without disrupting the skin barrier across all RIMAN Korean skincare routines.
• 5 types of hyaluronic acid — multi-depth hydration preservation during cleansing — The RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX contains five distinct molecular forms of hyaluronic acid: standard Sodium Hyaluronate (surface hydration), Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid (penetrates deeper), Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer (sustained release), Potassium Hyaluronate (gentle alternative salt form), and Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate (positively charged for stronger skin adhesion). Together they ensure that moisture is maintained at multiple skin depths throughout the cleansing process — explaining why skin feels hydrated rather than tight after use.
• Polyglutamic acid — moisture retention beyond hyaluronic acid — Polyglutamic acid (PGA) is a naturally fermented ingredient (derived from Bacillus subtilis, the same fermentation base as natto) shown to hold up to four times more moisture than hyaluronic acid. In the ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX, it helps create a moisture-holding film on the skin surface during cleansing that supports hydration retention even as surfactants remove impurities.
• Jojoba oil and propolis — nourishing barrier and skin-conditioning support — Jojoba oil (Simmondsia Chinensis) closely mimics the skin's natural sebum structure, providing emollient conditioning without clogging pores — adding a layer of softness and barrier support to complement the enzyme and surfactant cleansing. Propolis is a natural resin produced by bees with well-documented anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing properties that help soothe the skin and support barrier health after the cleansing process.

Who it's for

The RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX is designed for all skin types — and is specifically validated for sensitive skin through the Sensitive Skin Test and Eye Irritation Test. It's especially well-suited for skin that wants daily gentle exfoliation without a separate exfoliating product, for anyone who reacts to physical scrubs or finds leave-on AHAs too strong, for those building a complete RIMAN ICD routine who want an exfoliating second-cleanse option, and for skin that needs to look brighter and feel softer without the irritation risk of more aggressive exfoliation. The naturally derived, fragrance-free, sulfate-free formula also appeals to those who prioritize clean, minimal formulations in their Korean skincare routine.

Pro tips and pairings

For the most effective enzyme exfoliation from the RIMAN ICD Snow Enzyme Cleanser EX, take the foam massage step slowly — 60 seconds of gentle circular massage allows the papain enzyme time to break down dead skin cells before rinsing. The enzymes are activated by water and work progressively during the massage, so the longer you massage (without irritation), the more exfoliation occurs. Use as the water-based second step after a cleansing oil 2–3 times per week for a complete double-cleanse + exfoliate routine. On non-exfoliation days, use it daily as a standalone gentle cleanser.
