Born from Kose's 70+ years of Japanese skincare science, Sekkisei Blue was created for skin that feels stressed by modern life. The formula focuses on balancing skin that's lost its rhythm due to pollution, blue light, and daily pressures. We selected 5 Japanese botanical extracts—like Coix Seed and Angelica Root—known for their balancing properties, sourced from trusted growers. Every batch is made in Japan under strict GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards, ensuring pharmaceutical-grade quality. It's not just a product; it's a trusted part of daily routines, consistently ranking as a top-selling facial treatment oil in Japan for its reliable, gentle approach to skin that needs harmony.

Kose Sekkisei Blue Balancing Oil is a Japanese botanical facial treatment that combines traditional herbal extracts with modern skincare science. The key ingredients include coix seed extract, which is rich in amino acids and antioxidants to soothe and brighten the skin by reducing inflammation and uneven pigmentation. Angelica acutiloba root extract provides moisturizing and anti-aging benefits through its ability to enhance skin elasticity and barrier function. Licorice root extract offers calming and brightening properties by inhibiting melanin production and reducing redness. Citrus unshiu peel extract contributes antioxidant and astringent effects to refine pores and improve skin texture. Additionally, the formulation contains squalane, a plant-derived emollient that mimics the skin's natural oils to provide deep hydration without greasiness, while sunflower seed oil offers essential fatty acids to nourish and protect the skin barrier. These botanical ingredients work synergistically to balance oil production, hydrate, and promote a clear, radiant complexion, making it suitable for various skin types seeking harmony and luminosity.
