1. **Dual-Layer, Oil & Water Formula** — A specifically balanced two-phase system where the oil layer effectively captures waterproof pigments and the water layer adds moisture. 2. **No Mineral Oil** — Formulated without mineral oil, using gentler alternatives. 3. **pH Balanced** — Developed to align with skin's natural pH to help maintain comfort. 4. **Fragrance-Free & Colorant-Free** — Contains no added fragrance or artificial coloring agents. 5. **Tested for Gentle Use** — Ophthalmologist-tested to be non-irritating for use around the eye area (individual results may vary). 6. **High-Purity Japanese Manufacturing** — Produced in GMP-certified facilities in Japan. 7. **Specific Viscosity** — Engineered to cling to a cotton pad without dripping, for controlled application. 8. **Quick-Dissolving Action** — Formula is designed to break down long-wear makeup within seconds of contact. 9. **Moisture-Binding Ingredients** — Includes formulations like PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate to help prevent moisture stripping. 10. **Efficient Rinsability** — Formulated to rinse away cleanly with water when used as directed, leaving no heavy residue.

1. Shake the bottle gently to mix the dual-layer formula. 2. Apply a generous amount (about 2-3 pumps) directly onto a dry cotton pad. 3. Press and hold the soaked pad gently against closed eyelids or lips for 10-15 seconds to allow the formula to dissolve makeup. 4. Wipe away gently—no rubbing needed. 5. Follow with your regular facial cleanser and skincare routine. Timeline Expectations: Week 1: Notice how waterproof mascara and lip tint dissolve completely with minimal effort. Week 2-3: Skin around eyes and lips feels less tight or dry after cleansing compared to other removers. Week 4+: Consistent, gentle removal becomes part of a routine that helps maintain the delicate skin's comfort and resilience.

In Japan, where meticulous skincare is a cultural cornerstone, Kose's research labs identified a modern problem: traditional cleansers struggled with today's long-wear, waterproof formulas, often requiring harsh rubbing that can stress delicate eye and lip skin. The Softymo Super Point Makeup Remover was engineered as a targeted solution. Its dual-action formula, developed in Kose's GMP-certified Japanese facilities, uses a blend of gentle oils and moisture-binding ingredients that specifically latch onto stubborn pigments without stripping natural moisture. This focused approach has made it a consistent top-seller in Japan's competitive beauty market, trusted for its effective yet respectful cleansing that aligns with a philosophy of skin care, not just makeup removal.

Kose Softymo Super Point Makeup Remover - Waterproof Eye & Lip Cleanser is formulated with a blend of ingredients designed to effectively dissolve and remove stubborn waterproof makeup while being gentle on the delicate eye and lip areas. Key ingredients include mineral oil, which acts as an emollient and solvent to break down long-wearing, water-resistant cosmetics without harsh rubbing. Isopropyl myristate is included as a lightweight emollient and spreading agent, enhancing the product's ability to glide smoothly and evenly across the skin. Polyglyceryl-10 dioleate serves as a non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier, helping to lift and disperse makeup particles for easy rinsing. Additionally, tocopherol (vitamin E) is incorporated as an antioxidant to protect the skin from free radical damage and provide mild conditioning benefits. This combination ensures thorough cleansing, minimizes irritation, and leaves the skin feeling soft and hydrated, making it suitable for daily use even on sensitive skin types.
