[Sekkisei Brightening Essence Lotion] [Double Efficacy: Whitening x Skin Roughness Prevention*] This medicated whitening lotion contains active ingredients derived from licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) to thoroughly prevent blemishes and soothe rough skin, leading to fresh, clear skin. *The active ingredient stearyl glycyrrhetinate SW was the first in Japan to receive approval for its "whitening" and "skin roughness/irritation" efficacy.
[Contains KOSÉ's unique whitening and skin-soothing active ingredients] Focusing on two stagnations within the skin that hinder transparency—"melanin stagnation" and "skin roughness stagnation"—the active ingredients derived from licorice prevent these two stagnations, suppressing melanin production while preventing skin roughness and preventing blemishes and freckles. It leads to skin that is as fresh and translucent as snow.
[Uses bio-mimicking emulsion capsules] To stably incorporate the active ingredients, which are oil-based solids that are difficult to dissolve in water like butter, into a refreshing lotion, we use KOSÉ's unique technology to create bio-mimicking emulsion capsules using high-pressure microphospholipid emulsification. Because of the small size of the capsules, it achieves the fresh texture and deep penetration into the stratum corneum that is unique to medicated Sekkisei.
[Fresh and refreshing feel] It blends in with a penetrating sensation* like snow melting on the skin. It is non-greasy and circulates moisture deep into the stratum corneum. "After-skin moisturizing effect," "long-lasting moisture effect," and "skin transparency" are enhanced. It maintains healthy skin and leads to fresh, radiant skin. *Up to the stratum corneum.
