What it is
Combined with oil, it protects the skin and supports its basic function. A milky lotion for days when the skin is dry and rough, or sticky with sebum. It balances the oil and moisture on the skin surface. With our unique technology, natural clay acts as a substitute for the stratum corneum barrier, leaving the skin moist and smooth on the surface. The secret to this non-sticky moisturizing care is the stratum corneum mimicking layer. Bentonite. skin conditioning. swells with water and forms a very thin layer on the skin surface that mimics the layered state of the stratum corneum, which protects the skin and keeps it moisturized, that is, a stratum corneum mimicking layer, which adheres tightly to the skin. It naturally reflects light, giving the skin a natural, bright, and smooth finish. The stratum corneum mimicking layer becomes a thin, uniform veil that softly reflects light. It suppresses shine and excessive shine, and creates a matte, yet moist and smooth skin.

Here are my impressions after trying a few samples. The oil is good, but the lotion I paired with it might not be enough for someone in their 50s. I understand that the scent, feel, and ingredients are all great, but I wish they made one for mature skin!
I bought the VOCE supplement. It has a green scent (I'm not a fan of green scents), so I used it hesitantly, wondering if it would be okay... but it's a Kao product that goes well with it, so maybe it'll work...? The texture is like a milky lotion. It absorbs into the skin incredibly quickly. It's thick, but I was surprised how quickly it became smooth. I was worried about the scent, but it leans more towards lavender, which I like. It evaporates after about 10 minutes, so I don't mind it at all. I used it in the winter, but I wonder if adding cream or oil to it would be more moisturizing in the winter? I think it would be refreshing and comfortable in the summer.
I used a sample. It has a lotion-like texture and absorbs easily into the skin. It's not sticky. It's Athletia, so it has a nice scent.
The texture is thick and almost milky. My husband and I share this product, and it's so moisturizing that one bottle is enough for winter. It also has a nice scent, so I like it.
I bought this for my husband. It's not sticky and leaves skin feeling soft and supple, so it's stress-free for men too. I have dry skin, so oil alone isn't enough to moisturize it.
