A gentle facial cleanser and makeup remover in one, designed for normal to sensitive skin, including post-treatment or compromised skin.

If you often experience dryness, irritation, or leftover makeup after cleansing, this soothing formula offers a better daily solution. The Balancing Cleansing Emulsion features a creamy gel texture that melts upon contact with the skin, lifting away excess oil, impurities, sunscreen, and makeup.

When water is added, the gel transforms into a milky emulsion, allowing it to rinse away easily without leaving residue. The formula is fragrance-free, colorant-free, and sulfate-free, making it suitable even for sensitive or post-procedure skin.

More than just cleansing, this product is designed to support the foundation of healthy skin with every wash.

Usage Instructions
  1. Apply a small amount (about the size of a 500-yen coin) to dry skin. Gently massage over the entire face, including the eye area. As it warms on contact with the skin, the gel texture melts to help lift excess oil, makeup, and impurities.
  2. Next, add a small amount of water and continue massaging to emulsify the gel into a milky texture. This step helps dissolve and remove impurities more effectively.
  3. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, ensuring no residue remains.

Pro Tip: Use as a Pre-Cleanse

This product can also be used as a pre-cleansing step, especially when wearing heavy makeup or sunscreen.

For deeper cleansing, apply this emulsion first, rinse, then follow with a water-based cleanser suited to your skin type, such as a Gentle Cleanser, Exfoliating Cleanser, or Hydrating Cleanser.

This double-cleansing approach helps ensure skin is fully purified while maintaining the skin barrier.

  • Gentle enough for weakened or sensitive skin, helping reduce the risk of redness and irritation.

  • Formulated fragrance-free, colorant-free, and sulfate-free for a simple, skin-friendly cleansing experience.
