Cleanser Review: Kose softymo Washing Foam Ceramide

 'Ello folksickles. Today's review will be for the Kose softymo Washing Foam Ceramide.

Availability: This retails anywhere from $6 - $17 for 150g and can be purchased at amazon.com, stylevana.com, yesstyle.com, tesolife.com, and yamibuy.com.

Would I buy this again?: Probably not.

What is this product designed to address?

According to yesstyle.com:

The dense, soft foam cleanly removes impurities in one go, leaving your skin moisturized.

Formulated with ceramides and amino acids that have excellent moisturizing properties.

Does it contain any special/beneficial ingredients?

Glycerin: Attracts moisture to the skin. 

Stearic Acid: Helps shield the skin's barrier from moisture loss.

Lauric Acid: Helps keep acne-causing bacteria from growing on the skin's surface.
Ceramide NG: Helps protect the skin barrier, increase hydration and skin suppleness.
Ceramide NP: Helps the skin retain moisture.

What is the texture like?

This has my beloved cushiony hydrating cleanser texture that creates a thick, fluffy, hydrating foam in contact with water. It's not as thick as I personally love but it's a nice basic cleanser. 

Just a note, kose softymo has a line of "cleansing" foams in the same line - those have a gel texture to them versus being a cream like the "washing" foams.

Is it scented?

This doesn't have a discernible scent.

 

My overall experience/comments on the product:

I said in my review of the Kose softymo Washing Foam Collagen that these cleansers remind me a bit of the SENKA Perfect Whip Collagen in Perfect Face Cleansing Foam. I personally prefer the SENKA Perfect Whip Collagen in Perfect Face Cleansing Foam because I find it slightly more hydrating. In comparison to the Kose softymo Washing Foam Collagen and Kose softymo Washing Foam Hyaluronic Acid, I would say that this is slightly more hydrating but there isn't a significant difference between the three of them. I would say that they are a texture that I like and, for some reason, on the US market, cleansers with this type of texture tend to have a much loftier price tag hence me purchasing Korean and Japanese ones that I can typically snag for under $10 - $15. That being said, I prefer something that produces a bit more of a thicker, more hydrating foam. While this is my favorite out of the ones I've tried, I think I'll be trying other cleansers when this runs out.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
