Kose Predia was born from a simple Japanese philosophy: skincare should be as gentle and effective as the ocean's minerals. The Petite Mer line was specifically created for those who feel their skin is sensitive to modern life—stress, pollution, and harsh cleansers. The formula centers on a unique blend of 5 marine minerals sourced from the deep sea, known for their skin-calming properties. Every batch is produced in a Japanese facility with GMP certification, ensuring pharmaceutical-grade purity and consistency. It's not just a cleanser; it's a refill designed for the discerning user who values both results and sustainability, making it a top-ranked choice in Japan for sensitive skin care routines.

The Kose Predia Petite Mer Free & Mild Mineral Foaming Wash Refill - 180ml is formulated with a carefully selected blend of ingredients designed to cleanse gently while providing skincare benefits. Key components include water as the base solvent, glycerin for its humectant properties to attract and retain moisture, preventing dryness post-cleansing. Sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate serves as a mild, sulfate-free surfactant derived from coconut oil, creating a rich lather that effectively removes impurities without stripping the skin's natural oils. Betaine, often sourced from beets, acts as a gentle co-surfactant to enhance foam stability and provide a silky texture. Sodium chloride is included in minimal amounts to adjust viscosity. The formula incorporates butylene glycol as a solvent and humectant, aiding in ingredient penetration and hydration. Additionally, it contains disodium EDTA, a chelating agent that binds to metal ions, ensuring product stability and preventing discoloration. Preservatives like phenoxyethanol and ethylhexylglycerin are added in safe concentrations to inhibit microbial growth, extending shelf life. Fragrance is included for sensory appeal, though the product is marketed as mild and suitable for sensitive skin. This combination results in a cleanser that offers thorough yet non-irritating cleansing, maintains skin hydration, and supports a balanced complexion, making it ideal for daily use.
