Gently massage onto your face in circular motions for 60 seconds, focusing on the T-zone. 4. Rinse thoroughly with water. 5. Pat dry with a clean towel.

Skin maintains a balanced, hydrated clarity even after cleansing.

Born in Kose's Japanese labs, this clay wash was created to solve a modern problem: how to deeply cleanse without stripping your skin's essential moisture. Our chemists saw that harsh cleansers, combined with daily pollution and stress, were leaving skin tight and dehydrated. They selected a unique blend of 3 Japanese clays and 5 botanical extracts, formulating it in a GMP-certified facility to ensure every tube meets Japan's strict pharmaceutical-grade standards. The result isn't just a cleanser; it's a targeted solution for congested, tired skin. It quickly became a top-ranked clay wash in Japan, trusted by users who wanted a deep clean that felt gentle, not punishing.

Kose Softymo Lachesca Facial Clay Wash Moist - Deep Pore Cleansing is formulated with a blend of key ingredients designed to effectively cleanse and nourish the skin. The product features kaolin clay, which acts as a primary cleansing agent to absorb excess oil and impurities from deep within pores, providing a thorough yet gentle exfoliation. It also contains glycerin and hyaluronic acid, both humectants that attract and retain moisture in the skin, helping to prevent dryness and maintain hydration levels during and after cleansing. Additionally, the inclusion of botanical extracts such as chamomile and aloe vera offers soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, calming the skin and reducing potential irritation. These ingredients work synergistically to deliver a deep pore cleansing experience that leaves the skin feeling refreshed, balanced, and moisturized, making it suitable for those seeking to address oily or combination skin types without compromising skin barrier integrity.
