What it is

This face wash is made entirely from natural ingredients, including plant-derived soap ingredients and natural clay (hectorite*1). The moisturizing ingredient, Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide, creates a fine, creamy lather that gently envelops the skin. Plant oils that have been associated with women's beauty since ancient times, such as sesame oil*2, camellia oil*2, and sake lees extract*2, leave skin feeling moisturized after washing. Formulated with the unique beauty ingredient "KaESS," it also has skincare benefits. For moisturized and smooth skin. *1: Cleansing ingredients *2: Moisturizing ingredients [Key point 1] Made with only naturally derived ingredients *1 This facial cleanser uses no petroleum-based synthetic surfactants and cleanses with vegetable soap and natural clay (hectorite *2). The creamy soapy lather does not burden the skin, leaving it feeling gentle after washing while maintaining moisture. Recommended for dry and sensitive skin. *1: Only natural and naturally derived ingredients as defined by ISO16128-1 are used. *2: Cleansing aid ingredients [Key Point 2] Skincare Even During Washing: Luxuriously formulated with skincare ingredients to condition your skin. We believe that washing is also skincare, and we've generously formulated functional moisturizing ingredients like betaine, trehalose, and inositol, along with botanical oils like sesame oil and camellia oil to hydrate and protect your skin. We've also added moisturizing ingredients* derived from the sake and wasanbon manufacturing process. *Moisturizing ingredients made from the sake lees of Wakayama's renowned sake "Kinokuniya Bunzaemon" and rare sugar "wasanbon sugar," produced using traditional methods. [Key Point 3] Soothing Fragrance: Frankincense and camphor wood, which are expected to have a refreshing effect on the mind. Furthermore, a unique blend of fresh scents like pelargonium and mandarin orange creates a "scent of tranquility." A calming fragrance to relax your mind at the start and end of your day.
