I ordered the Su:m37 Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick on Tuesday night, straight after the trends talk at Pegasus and it was here by Thursday. I got mine from Ebay and paid around £17 for it which I thought was expensive. But, I was expecting something much smaller, so now £17 seems quite reasonable. I have never come across a cleansing balm in stick form – it makes all kinds of sense to have it this way and now I think about it, shaving sticks aren’t anything new or strange and the format reminds me very much of that.
The Su:m37 Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick isn’t quite a balm really – it’s balmy in texture when you first apply it to damp skin, but as you work it in it foams up (again, like a shaving stick). Once you’ve rinsed it away, you get that super-clean skin feeling, so if you don’t like that almost squeaky clean, then it’s probably not for you. It’s a very efficient cleanser – it easily took away my make-up.
Su:m37 Miracle Rose Cleansing StickThe Su:m37 Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick has rose petal pieces in it – I’m not sure that really brings anything to the cleansing party, but it does give the formula a rose scent which is pretty and not overwhelming. It’s quite hard to find exact information on ingredients, other than fermented rose flower (watch fermentation ingredients become a trend, by the way) but has a ‘natural’ and ‘hypoallergenic’ claim on it.
I absolutely love this for its efficiency and format – a quick search on Ebay should ensure that you can get hold of one, but there are 7 left in stock at this Amazon retailer HERE.

Hello Jane,
Isn’t this essentially a soap?
I had a look at the ingredients and it is oils plus sodium hydroxide. The glycerin in there is a natural byproduct of the soap making process.
They seem to have listed the English version of ingredients in reverse order with the essential oils at the top of the list and sodium hydroxide at the bottom, whereas the Korean version has it the other way around.
Not that I have anything against soap but it’s interesting how they call it a balm instead.
That’s why I made the comparison to a shaving stick.. it ends up a foamy soap but when you put it on your skin it feels balmy.
I was looking forward to this post from following the Periscope story! This looks so interesting, I hope other brands jump on the bandwagon!

I would love to hear what you think of the new cleanser by Niod – Low Viscosity Cleansing Ester. I have been using it for about a week and though its taken a bit of getting used to, I am impressed with the results so far.
I love this, and use it as a second cleanse. This is also super convenient for travel as it is not a liquid. A must have for me, and doesn’t dry out my aging skin❤️
i guess the backorder was over. I first learned about this from skin and tonics but at that time there was as backorder and it was going on ebay for like $40 bucks. Glad that’s over. I’m from the US, do you know where I can buy this cheap because the link you gave doesn’t ship to US.
thanks
I’ve used this for ages, ever since the days of Memebox when they shipped here. Last time I re-purchased it was £12 so worth checking sellers on ebay. I used to go mad with Korean products but they do have a lot of things like mineral oil and some of the cleansers can be soapy and drying. I still use Benton’s snail bee line though, brilliant stuff.
