What it is
Nihonmori's new concept is the addition of lactic acid bacteria to sake (rice fermented liquid), providing intense moisture with a double fermentation of ingredients. It also contains 10 moisturizing ingredients, including Gynostemma pentaphyllum leaf extract, sugar maple sap, and soybean seed extract, as well as 9 specially formulated ingredients for enhanced penetration and hydration. . This all-in-one product allows you to use serum, emulsion, and cream in one after applying toner. . Its light texture spreads easily, making it suitable for use on the face and entire body. . The packaging has also been redesigned for a simple and smart look. . The logo symbolizes the nurturing of moisture through the layering of rich beauty ingredients, including rice and sake lees. . The sake (rice fermented liquid) is made with Nihonmori's Junmai sake. Made solely from rice, it has a low acidity and a high amino acid content, providing abundant moisture. Lactic acid bacteria also help balance the skin's flora, nurturing beneficial bacteria and leading to hydrated skin.

I use it as a hand serum, not as a skincare product. I absolutely cannot have any sticky residue when I'm working, but if I don't put something on my hands, they lose all their moisture and my fingertips become dry and plastic-like. I've tried a variety of hand creams, but I found that gel-type products are by far the best, so I bought this one too. After a while, it becomes smooth and filmy without feeling sticky. It spreads easily, so a small amount is enough. The container isn't a tube, so I'm concerned about hygiene, and I think I'll transfer it to an even smaller container and use it all up.
I love the lotion and bought the all-in-one. It's a great deal for the price, and it leaves my skin feeling incredibly moisturized and supple. It's great for dealing with dry skin caused by heating in the winter.
It's great that you can apply it directly after washing your face! It also has moisturizing properties.
It leaves my skin feeling plump and supple. In the summer, I would apply this after lotion and then mix my liquid foundation and BB cream for base makeup. My friends would compliment me on how beautiful my skin looked even though I was wearing light makeup. As the seasons changed, the absorption rate may have changed, but my base makeup started to wear less well, so I started using it on my face and body at night before going to bed instead of before applying makeup. It's an essential item that I always take with me when I travel.
