Kose Softymo was founded in 1946 in Tokyo, Japan, with a simple philosophy: create effective skincare that respects the skin's natural balance. The Natu Savon Select Botanical Cleansing Foam was developed in response to modern environmental stressors that can disrupt the skin's moisture barrier. Kose's researchers selected a blend of 5 botanical oils—including olive, jojoba, and macadamia—for their proven ability to cleanse without stripping. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility in Japan, adhering to strict quality control standards that exceed international norms. This commitment to purity and efficacy has made it a top-ranked cleansing foam in Japan for over a decade, consistently earning the 'Cosme' award for its category based on real user reviews.

The Kose Softymo Natu Savon Select Botanical Cleansing Foam is formulated with a blend of botanical extracts and cleansing agents designed to effectively cleanse while maintaining skin's natural moisture balance. Key ingredients include water as the base solvent, glycerin as a humectant to attract and retain moisture, and sodium laureth sulfate as a primary surfactant that creates a rich lather to remove impurities, makeup, and excess oil without over-drying. Botanical extracts such as chamomile and aloe vera are included for their soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to calm and nourish the skin. Additional components like stearic acid and glyceryl stearate act as emulsifiers and emollients, enhancing the creaminess of the foam and providing a soft, smooth after-feel. The inclusion of fragrance and preservatives like phenoxyethanol ensures product stability and a pleasant sensory experience. This formulation aims to offer a gentle yet effective cleansing routine, promoting clean, hydrated, and refreshed skin suitable for daily use.
