What it is
For skin troubled by oily and greasiness. This azelaic acid (*2) facial soap prevents recurring acne (*1). It thoroughly removes excess dead skin cells and sebum that cause acne (*3) while retaining essential moisture. Formulated with 5,000 ppm of "pure azelaic acid (*2)," which balances skin's moisture and oil. Azelaic acid (*2) is a natural ingredient found in yeasts such as wheat and rye. It balances skin's moisture and oil, preventing recurring skin problems. This soap uses pure, underivatized azelaic acid (*2). It also contains "tea tree oil (*4)," which prevents skin irritation caused by oiliness and keeps skin clean. It also contains a luxurious blend of human-type ceramides NP, AP, and EOP (*5), which protect moisture by retaining skin's moisture and support its barrier function, as well as retinol palmitate (*2) and niacinamide (*5), which keep skin healthy. Each product is handcrafted using the "frame kneading method," making it possible to incorporate a wide range of ingredients. The dense, fine, and elastic foam gently envelops the skin, washing away surface impurities. The foam rinses off cleanly, leaving no residue that can cause skin irritation. It can also be used on rough skin on the back and body (*6). Daily face washing helps create skin that is less prone to problems.

#ExcellentMedical Provided by Excellent Medical. This soap contains beauty ingredients and can be used on the whole body, not just the face. It's handcrafted by artisans using a time-consuming, frame-kneading method. The soap is a beautiful, transparent pink color. It's angular and quite large. Using a foaming net creates a rich, dense lather. The lather is smooth and feels good on the skin! It feels like it sticks to the skin. The lather breaks down nicely. It rinses off easily and refreshingly. I like how it leaves my skin feeling refreshed while still leaving it moisturized. The scent is natural and herbal. I thought it was a little unique, but it's only a faint scent so it doesn't bother me too much. This soap is easy to use for me, as I have combination skin. Adult acne can appear if you're not careful, so I'm glad that it has the feature of being able to prevent it by washing your face every day. *1 *1 Caused by washing your face
Daily face wash for flawless, trouble-free skin. My name is Taiyo and Tsuki, and I suffer from recurring acne and rough skin. Hello. When a single pimple appears, it really brings me down! (-_-;) So, I tried Plus Kirei Balance Soap AZ. It's a soap formulated with azelaic acid* (a skin-conditioning ingredient). It's supposed to help create flawless skin! I'm so happy that daily face wash can help prevent acne! It's a cute, transparent pink soap. It's so clear you can see your fingers through it! I lather it up with a facial cleansing net. It lathers well, creating a fine, fine lather. I wash by rolling the lather between my hands. It feels so smooth, like light whipped cream, and it leaves my skin feeling refreshed. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized and not sticky, which I like. I think it would be comfortable for both dry and oily skin.
