Everything is written in chinese, but since I never paid attention in chinese class I just don't understand anything... at all. *such a failure*
SASA didn't have a lot of information so I had to do research! and research says....

Green/Mung Beans cleanser 300ml Refill pack
transferred in a empty container
Manufactured date and expiration date
At the time I bought this from sasa the one with the container was unavailable, so I bought a refill pack instead.
Product Description taken from SASA:
Kuan Yuan Lian Green Beans Cleanser is created with natural green beans, which are rich in Vitamin A, B and C. After cleansing, skin feels fresh without sensation of greasiness or tightness. The nutrients in green beans could therefore permeate into skin. Skin looks nourished, youthful and healthy.
I bought both from SASA earlier this year, and ever since this has been one of my favorite multi use cleanser.
As a cleanser:
Add drops of water into a proper amount of Green Beans Cleanse. Mix well until it turns to dense clay. Massage over skin for 1 minute so that it emulsifies. Then rinse off with lukewarm water. Afterwards, pat skin with cold
water to tighten pores.
As a Mask:
Follow the above method to cleanse face. Then blend the clay over face. Leave on for 5-10 minutes.
A teaspoon amount
Depending on the amount of water, it can be runny or mudlike.
I personaly prefer mudlike since I feel it is easier to spread around. Between the 2 types I don't really see any difference. They both smell like fresh green beans, very earthy.
Pros:
-> Smells very fresh and earthy
-> Works amazing at drying/healing pimples
-> Less breakout
-> Evens out skintone
-> Multi use
-> Skin looks healthy and bright right after
-> exfoliates skin
-> Affordability
Cons:
-> Can be drying for those with dry skin (I use this 2-4x a week)
-> Can cause skin sensitivity, redness (scrub gently)
-> Can be messy, and can spill if not careful
-> Availability (Not Local, but is available on SASA and BONJOURHK for those in Asia)
This is, like I mentioned earlier one of my favorite cleansers, I usually use this right after I remove my makeup (on too much makeup days) or as a mask on days when my skin is problematic.
