I don't have dry skin, and the skin on my body isn't as sensitive as my face, so this series is mild enough for me. When I want something fresh, I alternate between using it and regular soap. The scent is really subtle and natural, but I think it would be more enjoyable if it was a little stronger.
It leaves a refreshing feeling after washing, and although it does not contain any active ingredients, it seems to have a deodorant effect.
I have sensitive, atopic skin, so I've always used soap for my face and body. Its gentle cleansing and oily texture are perfectly balanced, and it's recommended by dermatologists. This one was released in March 2025, so it's new. I sometimes browse the Leaf and Botanics section but often end up not buying anything. However, I was drawn to the tea tree scent and bought this one. It's so calming, so refreshing! Tea tree is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, making it ideal for acne-prone skin, but it's perfect for the summer, when I sweat a lot. Even at this price, all the varieties claim to leave my skin feeling moisturized, and they really do leave my skin feeling dewy and hydrated after my skincare routine. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed. I'm happy that it's priced so well that it can be used on the whole body, but it's also great because it's not too overpowering when used as a face wash. While some facial soaps, especially those with higher prices, contain serum ingredients or leave skin feeling smoother and more refined after washing, I thought it was great that they offer such simple moisturizing benefits for just 500 yen. ?It feels just as good as a 2000 yen product. ?There was a time when I thought that unless you had a facial soap that cost around 3500 yen, the beauty ingredients wouldn't be fully realized! But this is more than enough. There are so many colors and varieties to choose from, it's fun. The scent is soothing, just like essential oils. I like the mugwort-like appearance ^^
I use it to wash my face. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized after washing. As for the scent, it's not my favorite, but I feel like my skin is brighter after washing, and I got used to the scent after using it a few times, so I'll call it good! The foam isn't thick, but it's decent. At this price, I might buy it again once I run out. There are other varieties available, so I'll try them out.
