Key Features

• Oil-based makeup-removing cleanser ("cleansing oil") from Japanese brand Kose, under the Kose Cosmeport "Softymo" line
• Fragrance-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free, and colorant-free formula, per brand-line positioning
• Self-emulsifying formula designed to turn milky and rinse off cleanly with water
• Sold in this size in the South Asia region by regional retailers, consistent with the size used in this listing

Benefits

• Oil-based cleansers are commonly used to effectively dissolve waterproof makeup, sunscreen, and sebum without harsh rubbing
• The blend of plant oils and shea butter is intended to leave skin feeling conditioned rather than stripped after cleansing
• Self-emulsifying action allows the product to be rinsed off with water, transitioning from an oil to a milky texture

Who Can Use This Product

• Adults looking for an oil-based makeup remover/first cleanse step, including those who wear waterproof or heavy makeup and sunscreen
• Not recommended for anyone with a known sensitivity to mineral oil or any of the listed plant oils without first patch-testing
• Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals and anyone with a diagnosed skin condition should consult a doctor before use

How to Use

• Apply to dry skin with dry hands, massaging gently over the face to dissolve makeup and sunscreen
• Add a small amount of water and continue massaging until the oil turns milky (emulsifies)
• Rinse thoroughly with water
• Follow with a water-based facial cleanser as a second cleanse, then continue with the rest of your skincare routine

Storage & Safety

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Keep the cap/pump tightly closed after use

• Discontinue use and consult a doctor if irritation, redness, or a burning sensation occurs

• Sourcing note: MedEasy found a pack-size labeling inconsistency across sources for this product -- some retailers list 240ml (matching this listing and Murasaki Cosmetics) while others (including Kirei BD's own product URL) list 230ml, which may reflect an older vs. newer packaging size or a labeling variance rather than a different product. Separately, the ingredient list presented above is sourced primarily from incidecoder, but an independent database (skinsort) lists an additional/different set of ingredients for a product under the same name, including Ascorbyl Palmitate and additional plant oils not found in the incidecoder version -- this may reflect a formula update between versions or a regional variant, and MedEasy could not resolve which list applies to this exact 240ml unit, so both should be treated as possible rather than one being definitive.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Is the pack size 240ml or 230ml?

A: MedEasy lists this product as 240ml, matching several sourced listings. Some other retailer listings show 230ml, which may reflect a packaging update or labeling variance -- always confirm the size on your product packaging.

Q: How does this cleansing oil work?

A: It is applied to dry skin to dissolve makeup and sunscreen, then emulsified with water until it turns milky, and rinsed off.

Q: Is the full ingredient list confirmed?

A: The headline oil-cleansing ingredients (Mineral Oil, plant oils, Shea Butter, Vitamin E) are consistently sourced, but one independent database lists some additional ingredients not found on the primary sourced list, so the complete list could not be fully confirmed for this exact unit.

Q: Should I use a second cleanser after this?

A: Yes, oil cleansers are typically followed by a water-based facial cleanser as a "double cleanse" step for a thorough clean.

Q: Is this suitable for sensitive skin?

A: Patch-test first, as mineral oil or any of the plant oils could be irritating for some sensitive skin types.
