Born from Kose's 70+ year dedication to Japanese skincare science, the Softymo Oil-Free Black Cleansing Sheets were created to solve a modern problem: deep pore congestion from daily pollution and makeup. Our Tokyo labs identified that traditional cleansers could leave residue, so we developed a unique, oil-free formula with activated charcoal and natural clay to act like a magnet for impurities without stripping skin. Every batch is produced in a Japanese GMP-certified facility, ensuring pharmaceutical-grade purity and consistency. This commitment to precision has made it a top-ranked cleansing sheet in Japan for 3 consecutive years, trusted by over 2 million users for its no-residue, deep-cleaning performance.

The Kose Softymo Oil-Free Black Cleansing Sheets - Deep Pore Detox features a carefully curated blend of ingredients designed to effectively cleanse and detoxify pores without leaving an oily residue. Key components include activated charcoal, which acts as a magnet to draw out impurities, excess sebum, and environmental pollutants from deep within pores, providing a thorough detoxifying effect. Salicylic acid is incorporated to exfoliate the skin, dissolve dead skin cells, and unclog pores, helping to prevent breakouts and reduce blackheads. Witch hazel extract serves as a natural astringent to tighten pores and soothe the skin, while tea tree oil offers antimicrobial properties to combat acne-causing bacteria. Aloe vera is included to hydrate and calm the skin, minimizing irritation and maintaining moisture balance. Additionally, glycerin functions as a humectant to attract and retain moisture, ensuring the skin feels refreshed and supple after use. This formulation is specifically crafted for those with oily or combination skin, offering a deep-cleansing experience that promotes clearer, smoother, and more refined skin texture without the heaviness of oil-based products.
