Would I buy this again?: Maybe.

What is this product designed to address?

According to japanwithlovestore.com:

Does it contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Coix Seed Extract: Has anti-inflammatory, skin-soothing properties.
Hyaluronic Acid: Helps the skin retain moisture.
Amino acids: Help strengthen the skin barrier and assist in wound healing.

What is the texture like?
I would describe the texture of this as a creamy thick gel that turns into a rich, fluffy foam in contact with water.

Is it scented?
This has a faint herbal, floral sort of "green" scent that smells very clean.  
 
My overall experience/comments on the product:
As you know, I'm always looking for a creamy, hydrating foaming cleanser and this fit the bill.  This leaves my face feeling soft, soothed, hydrated, and supple. It also does a pretty good job of removing face makeup when paired with a Foreo. Frankly I very rarely wash my face without the Foreo so I can't say how well it works without. I really appreciate that this has soothing ingredients in it. But that said, I prefer my cleansers be just a hair more hydrating so I don't know that I'd pick this up again but I am enjoying using it while I have it. 

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

June 2026 Arrivals

Ok folks! I'm back to replenishing on things that I'm running out of and buying mostly just necessities.

1.  Reihaku Hatomugi The facial foam : I'm running low on my current cleanser so I decided to give this one a try.

2. Organic Kitchen Reboot Revitalizing Face Mask: One of my current masks is running low and since I like to rotate through my collection I decided to go ahead and pick this one up again because I remember liking the way it made my skin feel. 

3. ORLY Nail Lacquer in Happy Camper: I might have mentioned that my regular nail polish collection has dwindled and I was hoping to rely on the mass of gel polishes my friend generously gifted to me. Unfortunately since I can't do gel without suffering nail damage I am slowly building my collection back up. As you all know, I love a good mint polish so when I saw this I couldn't pass it up. 

4. Sally Hansen miracle Gel Nail Polish in It's Sherbert Day: I feel like I haven't had a periwinkle nail polish in quite a while and remember loving having one so I decided to pick this up. It has a really pretty pearl in it too so I'm excited to try it out.
