i've heard about this brand for quite some time, but i never got the chance to browse about their products properly, so i have no idea on what to buy from them. anyway, when i visited japan last time, i decided to just buy their face wash for starter.
this is the description from their website: gentle care with moist foam made from vegetable amino acid-based cleansing ingredients. contains vegetable amino-acid based cleansing ingredients that are less irritating to the skin. gently removes sebum and dirt without putting a burden on your skin.
ingredients list: water, DPG, sodium lauroyl methylalanine, PEG-400, sodium lauroyl aspartate, lauryl hydroxysultaine, polyglycerin-10, sodium hyaluronate, ceramide NG, glycine, cocoyl glutamate sodium, glyceryl laurate, lauryl betaine, PEG-2M, lauric acid, citric acid.
the packaging: this one is drugstore brand so there's no box whatsoever that comes with it. they only seal the pump head with plastic sealing. there's description at the back of the bottle in japanese. the bottle is rounded just like hada labo foaming wash. the only difference is, this one is pink. light pink. the pump head is exactly like the hada labo one. this one is 200 ml.

the scent: i don't think this one is scented and luckily no foul scent either.

the product: this one is a foaming face wash, so once it's pumped out of the bottle, it forms bubbly foam. the foam is similar to hada labo, which has some body in it and doesn't easily disperse. i can use it with my foreo as well as my hand.

the result: after i wash it off, at first i feel my skin is slightly tightened and a bit dry. but after awhile, my skin starts to adjust and it feels normal as usual. in fact, lately i think it feels almost the same as hada labo. maybe only slightly less moisturizing? but one thing for sure, never open your eyes while you're using this or it will sting like hell.

anyway, for a first try, this one feels okay. i'm not picky with my face wash, so this one pass my standard as a foaming face wash. however, it doesn't feel that special so if you don't feel like it, you can skip it. i think it'll be suitable for all skin type, though perhaps dry skin won't quite like it. but as long as you rehydrate your skin right afterward, i think it'll be fine. price wise, this one is still affordable. availability wise, aside from japan, i don't see this brand anywhere else. however, i think you might be able to buy it from online shops. as for me, i think i'll try their other products as well. wish me luck.
