High moisturizing properties have been proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines due to dryness (efficacy evaluation test completed). Itoguchi "Silk-Prepared Skincare" series: Silk Barrier Cream, the finishing cream in the "Silk-Prepared" series. Achieving a maximum blend of silk ingredients, sericin and fibroin*1, this cream infuses every corner of the stratum corneum with abundant silk ingredients*1, providing intense moisture that makes your skin feel like it's transformed into Midori Mayu. Furthermore, without the use of UV absorbers or UV scattering agents, Midori Mayu silk alone achieves SPF17/PA+++. It blocks both UVA and UVB rays, making it an integrated sunscreen for your daily skincare routine. Its lightweight texture blends seamlessly into the skin, yet remains highly moisturizing. You'll feel as if you're wrapped in Midori Mayu's shelter, feeling confident. It leaves the skin feeling moisturized yet smooth. It leaves skin radiant and firm, like silk itself. No cleanser is required, so you can sleep with it on. The gentle citrus scent is a unique blend of organic essential oils, including Atlas cedar bark oil, orange fruit oil, palmarosa oil, and bitter orange flower oil. POINT 01: It blocks UVA and UVB rays with a high concentration of silk ingredients*1 to the maximum limit*2. After applying the moisturizing lotion, this cream completes both moisturizing and UV protection. It wraps your skin in a thin silk veil, protecting it from UV rays. It also targets NMF (natural moisturizing factors) and intercellular lipids in stratum corneum, locking in moisture. Even those who don't like sunscreen or have sensitive skin can enjoy daily UV protection while moisturizing. *During seasons with strong UV rays or when spending long periods outdoors, apply a UV protection product after this product. POINT 02 Carefully selected Japanese and Chinese herbs*3 Mulberry bark (Morus alba root bark extract), mulberry fruit (Morus alba fruit extract), Job's tears seed extract, camellia oil, and Uonuma water moisturize and soothe the skin.

How to Work It Into Your Routine
At the end of your skincare routine, take 2-3 pumps (about the size of an almond) and apply it to your entire face. As soon as it is absorbed into your skin, it may turn whitish, as if covered in gauze. This is proof that the silk ingredients have enveloped your skin. When you press it into your skin with your hands, it becomes transparent, and your skin will feel smooth afterwards. *If you are spending a lot of time outdoors or in seasons with strong UV rays, apply a UV care product after this. *You can also use it in your nighttime skincare routine. No need to rinse it off.

Words From Our Community
Honest reviews from skincare lovers around the globe.
I don't like sticky creams, so I was looking for something light and then I saw this product featured in an article and bought it. It's very comfortable to use. This product solves my problem of not wanting to feel sticky when I sleep, and it's a cream I want to continue using! I thought it was a bit pricey for me, but when I look at its functionality, I think the price is worth it.
I used it as a magazine supplement. It's fine. The smell was peculiar.
It has a rich texture, but at the end it adheres tightly to the skin, providing protection. This makes it especially easy to use in the morning before applying makeup. It's also great for protecting against UV rays when taking your kids to school in the morning or when going outside after hot yoga, making it very convenient.
I was lost when it came to lotions, and after trying out a variety of them, I finally found one that I thought I might want to use again! Even with good reviews, there were many that were hard to see the effects of or too expensive, but this was a perfect match for me: natural UV protection that stands up to the morning sun, a texture that spreads easily and adheres to the skin despite feeling heavy, a plump feeling after application, and no effect on the next cream. However, texture and scent may be a matter of personal preference. I think that the fact that it's not easily available may be a problem for some people. For me, this is a product I'd like to use for a while!
I used the sample that came with the magazine twice. The lavender and citrus scent is as strong and distinct as the lotion. While this cream appears to be suitable for morning use, offering UV protection solely through the power of silk, it contains several potentially phototoxic essential oils, so I used it for my nighttime skincare routine. It has a very thick texture, and when I spread it, it left a white cast, so much so that I checked the ingredients to see if it contained titanium dioxide. However, the color blended well afterward, which was interesting. It seems to adhere well and lock in moisture, but I feel like it might not be enough for my dry, combination skin in the winter. My reasons for not purchasing the full product are the strong scent and, even though it's free of scattering and absorbing agents, some of the essential oils make me uneasy about using it during the day. I really like the concept of using green cocoons, so I hope they'll develop a fragrance-free line focused on the benefits of their ingredients.
