Kanebo was founded in Tokyo in 1887, pioneering skincare for modern Japanese women. This specific formula was created to address the 'morning rush'—the stress of modern life that leaves skin vulnerable from the moment you wake up. Our researchers selected ingredients not just for hydration, but to create a resilient barrier against daily environmental stressors. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility in Japan, adhering to strict government-designated quality standards. It's a staple in morning routines across Japan, consistently ranking as a top-selling daytime moisturizer for its reliable, no-fuss performance.

The Kanebo Cream In Day SPF20 PA+++ Morning Face Moisturizer - 40g is formulated with a blend of key ingredients designed to provide comprehensive skincare benefits. It contains water and glycerin as primary hydrating agents, which work to attract and retain moisture in the skin, ensuring long-lasting hydration and a supple texture. The inclusion of butylene glycol enhances penetration and moisturization, while dimethicone acts as an emollient to smooth the skin's surface and create a protective barrier. Sun protection is achieved through chemical UV filters such as ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine, which absorb UVB and UVA rays respectively, offering SPF20 and PA+++ protection to prevent sun damage and premature aging. Antioxidants like tocopherol (vitamin E) help neutralize free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and supporting skin health. Additional components such as stearic acid and cetyl alcohol serve as emulsifiers and thickeners, ensuring a stable, creamy consistency that is easy to apply. This formulation aims to deliver a lightweight, non-greasy moisturizer that hydrates, protects, and prepares the skin for the day ahead, making it suitable for daily use in a morning skincare routine.
