Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testDiscover the luxurious fusion of skincare and cleansing with Dr.Melaxin TX Ampoule Cleanser, a high-performance formula designed to purify, balance, and nourish your skin in one step. Infused with potent ampoule-grade ingredients, this transformative cleanser doesn’t just wash away impurities, it treats your skin with the same care as a serum. Formulated with soothing and hydrating components, the TX Ampoule Cleanser gently lifts away dirt, sunscreen, and makeup without stripping the skin of its natural moisture barrier. Ideal for all skin types, including sensitive and dry skin, it creates a rich, creamy lather that melts into the skin, leaving it feeling refreshed, soft, and visibly healthier.
TX Ampoule Cleanser is a lightweight foam cleanser from Dr.Melaxin. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 51 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. The oils in it point to a dewy, emollient finish rather than a matte one. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Panthenol and Ethylhexylglycerin, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Panthenol, Ethylhexylglycerin and Butylene Glycol.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Centella Asiatica Root Extract, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract and Centella Asiatica Extract.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control, cell renewal and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes first step. Use on damp skin and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a toner or essence while skin is still slightly damp.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
