Kikumasamune Japanese Sake Moisturizing Brightening Skin Care Lotion 500ml

Product Information

If you have the patience to deal with the pump, don’t mind the smell of sake before breakfast, and don’t react to any of the ingredients, this could actually be a really wonderful product for you. It is more effective to pack it firmly in cotton or tissue paper, packing about 5 minutes of dryness concerning face, etc. Rice ferment filtrate (sake) contains kojic acid which is responsible for skin-lightening and is also a great source of antioxidants.

In response to requests for a moist type, a new "high-moisturising" version with a higher moisturising power has been launched while maintaining the same base!But why would anyone even think of using an alcoholic beverage to form the basis of a skincare product then, I hear you ask? I don’t know if it’s an issue with snail filtrate or something else because I don’t usually have issues with most ingredients, except for some added fragrances. Knowing that sake is a great ingredient to slow down the aging process makes me want to incorporate it into my skincare routine. In addition this version of Kikumasamune series is formulated with components that help to promote skin brightening and lightening. It doesn’t feel heavy, but it does feel very moisturizing, and doesn’t absorb as fast as other very watery products I’ve used.

Kiku-Masamune High Moist Lotion is a Japanese sake-based hydrating toner that I’ve heard only good things about. This version of Kiku-Masamune's sake-based lotion contains a high concentration of kojic acid found in rice wine which hydrates, smoothens, soothes and brightens skin. If you're trying it for the first time, it's pretty big at 500ml, so if you don't react well, there's a lot left over. Again for a 500ml size, if you use it every day, a single bottle can last up to three months or more.

The brand’s unique skin and body care include bath products, sheet masks, face wash, cleansing balm, cream and lotion. In Japan, horse racing is big, hence the reason they have a high market for horse breeding which even cosmetic industries such as Kikumasamune partake in. While I sometimes enjoy using the pump to dispense the product, I generally prefer to decant a bit into a spray bottle.

So I’m a little torn between the 2 but I would say for sure that if you have oily skin or if it’s hot and humid when your deciding to stay AWAY from pink bottle one and go with the white. What a lot of people don’t realize is that a few of the brands that they use including Hada Labo, Biore, Nivea to mention a few are Japanese brands that are often mixed with Korean brands. Kiku-Masamune High Moist Lotion reminds me of a 30 Rock quote (if you don’t want 30 Rock quotes with your skincare, you’ve come to the wrong blog): Liz Lemon’s doctor asks her if she’s eating right, and Liz responds “No, but I am eating a lot. For best results, soak a cotton pad or tissue paper and apply to face and other dry areas for approximately 5 minutes. Kikumasamune High Moist Lotion contains Japanese sake, ceramide and placenta extract to highly moisturize, soothe and tone your skin.Junmai-shu is a genuine sake made from sake barrels made of Yoshinosugi cedar and bottled when it is at its most fragrant. So, if you are dealing with dull skin and you need to brighten your complexion naturally, you can incorporate this product into your routine. I only ever break out on my chin, and haven’t had any blemishes at all in at least a month or two, so this was a pretty striking reaction. quite sad it didnt work on you cuz im currently using the original one (yes, it is a huge bottle and will last you for a while).

Kiku-Masamune's Taru Sake is an authentic dry sake that is distinguished by the aroma of Yoshino cedar. Rice contains amino acid and essential mineral, consolidate the skin protection fence, bring a healthy skin from inside out. Asides from Sake, this product is fortified with Arbutin which is amazing for treating hyperpigmentation and fading dark spots. With the removal of excess air and water, products require less packaging and become more efficient to dispatch.This item will be shipped from Japan by international e-Packet or e-Packet Light (small items up to 2kg) . I want to try the one in the pink bottle next just to see if on the off chance I might like it better but I have a feeling I will be coming back to this one as well. The product is easily absorbed into areas where flakiness and dryness are a concern, preventing rough skin and leaving skin moist and smooth. The closest I’ve ever come to loving an actual first essence or toner is Hada Labo Gokujyun lotion, and I like that stuff okay.
