The Best Products to Try From Japanese Skincare Brand KOSÉ

Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil

In case you didn't know, double cleansing (a.k.a. massaging your face with a cleansing oil or balm before your actual facial wash) is a v important and highly underrated step in your skincare routine—whether or not you wear makeup. It serves to remove all the makeup, sunscreen, oil, and dirt your face might have accumulated throughout the day that your regular facial cleanser might not be able to wash away.

The Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil is perfect to use if your bed is calling you, but you can't not do your skincare routine. Like the name implies, it quickly removes all your makeup (even waterproof ones) and sunscreen without having to tug at your face. It's also safe to use even if you're wearing eyelash extensions.

Softymo Cleansing Foam Hyaluronic Acid

It's 2025—we shouldn't have to be dealing with cleansers that leave your face feeling and looking drier than a desert. Enter: the Softymo Cleansing Foam Hyaluronic Acid. It lathers up into a soft, bouncy foam and gets rid of makeup, sunscreen, and dirt without making your face taut. It's infused with two (!) types of hyaluronic acid, fermented soy milk, silk powder, and cocoyl glycine that all work together to cleanse, hydrate, and brighten your complexion.

Suncut UV Perfect Gel

Sunscreen is one of those things we know we have to be applying daily, but sometimes, it just feels too sticky to be applying when it's So! Freaking! Humid! outside. However, sunscreen is too important to skip, so we recommend going for lightweight formulas like gels to counteract the greasiness.

The Suncut UV Perfect Gel is the SPF that understands the assignment every single day. It's lightweight, fast-absorbing, and totally invisible on skin—no white cast, no sticky drama, no excuses. It gives you broad-spectrum SPF 50+ PA++++ protection, so you can step out knowing your skin's safe from sunburns, dark spots, and premature aging.

Suncut UV Protect Spray

The Suncut UV Protect Spray is basically sunscreen in lazy girl form, and we mean that in the most affectionate way possible. It's ultra-fine, super lightweight, and dries down in literal seconds with zero sticky residue. It has no white cast or weird scent—just SPF 50+ PA++++ protection in a can that you can spritz over your face, body, scalp, or feet. P.S. It's waterproof, sweat-proof, basically everything-proof!

CoenRich Night Renew Capsule in Cream

If your hands are feeling personally victimized by hand sanitizer or just washing your hands regularly, keep this in your tote, stat. This night hand cream is formulated with micro-serum capsules that give you lasting hydration, intense moisture, and just soft AF hands everytime. Bonus: It smells subtle and clean, absorbs like a dream, and doesn't leave your hands sticky!
