KOSE Clear Plus Moisture Cleansing Liquid


I have had this KOSE Clear Plus Moisture Cleansing Liquid sitting around in my bathroom drawer for quite a while. I have used Japanese drugstore branded skincare lines before but went to highend then back to local drugstore brands like Clean & Clear. I just recently finished my supply of Clean & Clear products so I decided to open up my cupboard and finish the things I had gotten the past year. I got this item as a new product at Sasa at a very cheap price so it was gone pretty quickly. It probably on surfaced on the site for about 2 weeks or so. I haven't seen any other online retailers selling this product either. The KOSE Clear Plus Moisture Cleansing Liquid comes in 2 different types, a much lighter version and the version I will be reviewing today which is a heavier one. Both cleansers are oil based and have properties to clean the face with or without makeup.


The KOSE Clear Plus Moisture Cleansing Liquid(heavier one) comes in a milky white liquid that does not sud up(oil base). It glides on your hand as you pump it out of the bottle. It honestly reminds me of a brand that I'm very familiar with: Cetaphil! It almost is comparable to it! It is very gentle, unscented and it also removes most of my makeup. It removes pretty much everything except for eyemakeup which I would highly recommend using another product for that area. I like this face wash but I don't like it because it doesn't have the usual sudsing action so it is pretty weird if you haven't used these types of cleansers before. As for moisturizing, it's alright. I haven't seen much of a difference in my skin to say it's doing a fab job at keeping my face moisturized. I would only recommend this one if you're looking for something along the lines of Cetaphil-style cleansers.
Pros: Smells good, great concept, soft skin in the morning, fairly cheap
Cons: Sticky, mess on pillows/covers, not much of difference

Ooo, I've been meaning to try this. Thanks for the review! I've been reading this site back when it was on LJ, but this is my first time commenting. Anyhow, I love this blog, and I'm glad you've resumed posting. Cheers!
