Kose was founded in 1946 in Tokyo, Japan, by a pharmacist who believed skincare should be simple, effective, and accessible. The Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil was created for modern life, where stress and pollution can clog pores and dull skin. The formula was developed in Kose's own labs, selecting ingredients like natural olive oil for their proven ability to dissolve makeup and sebum without harsh scrubbing. Every batch is produced in a Japanese factory certified by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, adhering to strict Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). It's not just a lab favorite; it's a consumer champion, consistently ranking as the #1 best-selling cleansing oil in its category in Japan for its reliable, gentle performance.

The Kose Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil Refill - Jumbo Size Deep Pore Cleanser is formulated with a blend of key ingredients designed for effective and gentle cleansing. It primarily contains mineral oil, which serves as the base oil to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and sebum without stripping the skin's natural moisture. Ethylhexyl palmitate is included as an emollient to enhance the oil's spreadability and provide a smooth texture during application. Polyglyceryl-10 diisostearate acts as an emulsifier, allowing the oil to rinse off cleanly with water, preventing residue and reducing the need for a second cleanser. Tocopherol (vitamin E) is added as an antioxidant to protect the skin from environmental stressors and support skin barrier health. Additionally, the formula incorporates fragrance for a pleasant sensory experience. This combination of ingredients ensures thorough yet non-irritating cleansing, making it suitable for daily use, particularly for those seeking to address deep pore concerns while maintaining skin hydration and comfort.
