TimeMachine Water Clean

** Hydrate, Cleanse, and Support Your Skin Barrier—Without Stripping **

If your cleanser leaves your skin feeling tight, dry, or irritated, it may be disrupting your skin’s natural balance instead of supporting it.

Storyderm TimeMachine Water Clean is a gentle daily cleanser designed to remove makeup, sunscreen, excess oil, and impurities while keeping your skin soft, balanced, and calm. Its low pH formula works with your skin—not against it—making it especially suitable for dry, sensitive, or easily reactive skin.

This unique water cleanser can be used to wipe away daily buildup, then activated with water into a light foam for a complete cleanse. It combines the freshness of cleansing water with the effectiveness of a gentle foam—without the harshness of traditional foaming cleansers that often leave skin feeling stripped.

Formulated with mild cleansing agents and soothing botanical extracts, it helps lift away impurities while supporting hydration and reducing the look of dryness and irritation. Skin feels clean, calm, and refreshed—never tight or over-cleansed.

It effectively removes sunscreen, light makeup, and everyday residue, making it a reliable option for daily cleansing without compromising the skin barrier. For heavier or waterproof makeup, it works well as a second cleanse after an oil-based cleanser.
Whether you’re dealing with dehydration, sensitivity, or occasional breakouts, this formula provides a balanced cleanse that respects your skin’s natural function.

As a Korean low pH cleanser, it aligns with modern skincare principles focused on maintaining a healthy, resilient skin barrier—supporting long-term skin health, not just a temporary clean feeling.

This makes it especially useful for everyday cleansing when you want a gentle but effective wash without disrupting your skin barrier.

This is more than just a basic face wash—it’s a daily essential designed to keep your skin clean, comfortable, and supported over time.

Apply to a cotton pad and gently wipe to remove makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup. Add water to create a light foam, massage onto the skin, then rinse with lukewarm water. Use morning and night.

Dry, sensitive, dehydrated, and acne-prone skin—ideal for anyone looking for a gentle, non-stripping daily cleanser.

For heavy or waterproof makeup, use after an oil-based cleanser as your second cleanse.
