What it is
Since its founding, IPSA has focused on the power of skin and conducted daily research. Our goal was to create skin that appears energized, moisturized, and translucent. ME is a highly functional lotion that brings out the natural beauty of each individual's skin. Its unique CP-ME and CP-H-ME ingredients deeply circulate moisture from within (*1), leading to firmer, more translucent, and softer skin. IPSA's core moisturizer, enveloping each skin in a comfortable texture tailored to the skin, fills each individual with beauty, almost as if satisfying the soul. [Recommended Skin Types] ME n 4 is recommended for skin that is fresh and smooth, yet also feels dry or slightly oily in areas. Non-comedogenic and allergy tested. *This does not guarantee that all skin types will not develop acne or allergies.

Ingredients
How to use
Use on skin after washing your face in the morning and evening. Hold the nozzle of the dispenser close to a cotton pad, pump three times, and gently apply the product to your entire face. Finally, wrap your palms around your entire face to blend it in. (How to set up the dispenser) Place the bottle on a flat surface, gently hold the bottom of the container, and remove the bottle cap. Slowly insert the dispenser into the bottle to prevent the contents from spilling, and close it tightly before use. From the second bottle onwards, unscrew the dispenser from the used bottle and remove it. As above, slowly insert the dispenser into the bottle, close it, and use.

The texture is slightly moist, so it's not difficult to spread, and it feels like it sits firmly on the skin. It's moist but not sticky, and I think it absorbs into the skin quickly. I recommend applying it to your hands rather than using a cotton pad.
I've been using No. 4 since before the renewal. It's recommended for dry skin with little oil. It has a thick, milky texture that moisturizes without feeling sticky. I think it absorbs faster than before the renewal and feels even better. Another great thing is that it's now alcohol-free. It can also be used as an all-in-one product, so it's convenient when you're short on time or too tired to bother with skincare. It's hypoallergenic, so you can use it safely even when your skin is in bad condition. I use a variety of other products, but this is one I want to keep on hand at all times.
I've been using this since the end of summer. I was having a lot of trouble with makeup sticking, acne, and rough skin when I discovered IPSA Me. I have combination skin that's on the oily side, but I'm using Me4 because it's an all-in-one product. I'd been using moisturizing serums and creams that left my skin feeling sticky, but suddenly they didn't suit me, and I wondered if this was enough. I was worried about dryness, but I haven't had any issues. It seemed to suit my skin, but whenever I use something else, I always get acne.
I used to use 8, but when I had my skin measured at the store, they said 7 was a good fit, so I switched to 7. Both are heavy, but 8 is more moisturizing and thicker, and 7 is a little lighter than 8. I thought 8 might be better in the dry winter months, but since I use cream, 7 seems fine.
