Skip the 5-step process. This is skincare, primer, foundation, and sunscreen in one pump. Perfect for 'no time' mornings.

Skin That Gets Better, Not Just Covered

The serum works all day. Reviewers note their 'skin feels better at night' and looks 'healthier bare-faced' over weeks of use.

No More 'Cakey' or 'Masky' Feeling

It's famously 'light as air' and 'not sticky.' You forget you're wearing it, but your perfect coverage doesn't forget you.

Born in Japan's Kose Laboratories, this BB foundation was created for a modern reality: skin that's constantly stressed by blue light, pollution, and a fast-paced lifestyle. Our chemists asked, 'Why should you choose between skincare and makeup?' The answer is this all-in-one formula, developed with a patented serum base that treats skin while it perfects. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility in Japan, adhering to the strictest pharmaceutical-grade standards. It's not just a foundation; it's a skin-optimizing shield, now a top-ranked base makeup product in Japan for its unique dual-action approach.

The Kose Esprique Speed Finish Serum BB Foundation SPF 50+ PA++++ is formulated with a sophisticated blend of ingredients designed to provide comprehensive skincare and makeup benefits. Key components include titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which serve as physical sunscreens to offer broad-spectrum UV protection with SPF 50+ and PA++++ ratings, shielding the skin from sun damage and premature aging. The foundation incorporates hyaluronic acid and ceramides to deeply hydrate and reinforce the skin's moisture barrier, promoting a plump, smooth complexion while preventing dryness. Silicone derivatives like dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane are included to create a lightweight, silky texture that glides effortlessly onto the skin, blurring imperfections and ensuring long-lasting wear without a heavy feel. Antioxidants such as vitamin E (tocopherol) help neutralize free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and supporting skin health. Additionally, the product contains skin-conditioning agents like squalane and botanical extracts, which soothe and nourish the skin, enhancing its overall radiance and providing a natural, flawless finish that combines coverage with skincare efficacy.
