What it is
A fusion of beauty ingredients derived from plants grown in Japanese soil and technology. From the skin care series "Oriental Plants" that leads to bouncy, fresh, firm skin, as if polished with water. A facial cleanser that moisturizes the skin while washing it. The fine, bouncy, elastic foam firmly absorbs dirt, sebum, and old keratin. In addition, Koh Gen Do's unique capsules containing domestically grown, pesticide-free plant extracts release the encapsulated ingredients according to the skin condition and pH of the area, moisturizing the face while washing. A well-balanced combination of plant-derived cleansing and moisturizing ingredients thoroughly removes dirt while leaving a mild wash without a tight feeling. After rinsing, your skin will be smooth, silky, and full of transparency.

It's cost-effective because you only need a small amount to create a nice lather. I like how it creates a fine lather without leaving my face feeling tight after washing.
It creates a firm, thick lather in no time. It leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed without drying it out. This is my favorite of the Oriental Plants series.
Hmmmm. It's a difficult product to evaluate. Koh Gen Do has a good brand image for me, and I've been using their cleansing water regularly, so I had high expectations when I tried this. It's flat. It doesn't have a nice scent, and there's no smell of ingredients. It doesn't make my skin feel tight, but it's not moisturizing either. It removes dirt well, but it doesn't have any special functions. However, it lathers well and doesn't go flat easily. It doesn't irritate my skin, and I feel like I can use it anytime. Considering the price, I don't think it's quite what I'd need, but I feel like I can use it with confidence when my skin is sensitive. It's difficult to evaluate, but I'm glad to know that it's a place I can always return to.
I like the cleansing cream in the Oriental Plants series, so I decided to buy this one. A small amount creates a rich, fluffy lather. This is its biggest advantage. It's also reasonably priced. The lather feels refreshing, and it rinses off so easily that it's almost too good to be true. It cleanses so thoroughly after just one wash, I was a little worried about its moisturizing power. Despite that, I didn't notice any noticeable effects, especially on dark spots. I think it's recommended for those with oily skin who want a refreshing cleanse. I have dry skin, so I'm not sure if this is related to my skin, but I've had a massive increase in acne while using this, so I'll stop buying it.
It creates a fine, bouncy lather quickly. It lathers well and leaves your skin feeling moisturized yet refreshed after washing. I have sensitive skin and have been using it for a week without any problems, so I think I'll buy it again.
