BEPLAIN Mung Bean Low-pH Foam: five checks for 80mL vs 160mL
Compare Korean BEPLAIN's two foam-cleansing sizes, their different unopened shelf-life labels and gentle use.
BEPLAIN is a Korean skincare brand whose Mung Bean pH-Balanced Cleansing Foam is listed on its Korean store in 80mL and 160mL sizes. The two official product disclosures differ beyond size: the 80mL entry says 30 months unopened from manufacture, while the 160mL entry says 36 months unopened; both list 12 months after opening. Always prioritize the actual purchased package. The official ingredient lists mention mung-bean powder at 9,000ppm and extract at 3,300ppm, but that does not prove zero irritation or treatment for skin conditions. A 2023 Korean Singles editorial video covers the BEPLAIN mung-bean line historically; it is not an independent test comparing the 2026 variants.

01
Check whether your label says 80mL or 160mL
BEPLAIN Korea has distinct official pages for the 80mL foam and its large 160mL version. Confirm the full name, size and bundle before using or purchasing. Stock and prices may change.

Read the shelf-life details for the exact size
The 80mL Korean disclosure says 30 months unopened after manufacture, and 12 months after opening. The 160mL disclosure says 36 months unopened and 12 months after opening. Read your own packaging's date marks rather than relying only on a webpage.

03
Make foam with water, not excess product
Wash hands first and wet the face. Following the brand's instructions, work a suitable amount with water into foam. Using more product does not necessarily improve cleansing.

Massage gently and rinse with lukewarm water
Move the foam gently over the skin, then rinse well with lukewarm water, as the Korean product directions describe. Avoid vigorous rubbing or contact with the eyes. Use moisturizer afterward if it suits your skin.

05
Watch for reactions and store the tube properly
Avoid broken skin and discontinue if itching, red patches or swelling occurs. The Korean labeling advises keeping the product away from children and direct sunlight. Low-pH or mung-bean labeling does not promise irritation-free use.

✦ Helpful tips
- The unopened shelf-life periods differ on the current Korean disclosure pages; actual package dates take priority.
- This rinse-off foam is different from mung-bean cleansing oil or balm, which have other instructions.
- The older Singles line-up video is illustrative, not a 2026 performance trial.
ⓘ Keep in mind
- Avoid the eyes and damaged skin; seek professional advice if irritation is serious or persists.
- Ingredients and usage labels can vary by market and release; do not assume universal tolerance.
