Popular Japanese Facial Cleansing Products - What I Want to Buy in Japan

When I visit Japan, I always purchase some Shiseido Perfect Whip and Kose Softymo Cleansing Oil. As I mentioned in my previous entries, these are the best cleansing products I've ever used! However, I would like to try other Japanese facial cleansing products next time. I've sometimes found very popular Japanese products through Amazon Japan and @cosme, a huge makeup review site in Japan. I think I will go to see my families in Japan next year, hopefully, so I would like to purchase these excellent products there. Today, I'm going to share top 3 facial cleansing products I want to buy in Japan with you. :) These products can be also found on Amazon USA, but I won't buy these now because I think I can purchase these at a little more reasonable prices in Japan. Beside all, I still have some facial cleansing products, so I should use them up before going to Japan. :) Anyway, I'm going to share 3 most excellent Japanese beauty products with you. By the way, all products I've listed below can be purchased at drugstores in Japan.

1. Kanebo Suisai Beauty Clear Powder (Kanebo Suisai ビューティクリアーパウダー)
0.4g x 32 pieces - 2100 yen
0.4g x 15 pieces - 1050 yen

Kanebo Suisai Beauty Clear Powder is enzyme facial cleansing powder. This was selected the best facial cleansing award by @cosme. It contains two kinds of enzymes which dissolves blackheads and improves your skin condition.

2. Konjac Facial Cleansing Sponge Konjac no Chikara (蒟蒻のチカラ　こんにゃくブッセ洗顔マッサージパフ)　
680 yen

I've watched a Japanese TV show which showed that many Asian women come to Japan and buy a lot of konjac sponges, Makanai Cosume Konjac Sponge (756 yen), at Narita airport. Konjac, as known as konnyaku and yam cake, is made of konnyaku potato. I sometimes cook konjac for Japanese foods but didn't know about konjac facial sponge. Makanai Cosume Konjac Sponge cannot be purchased at drugstores, and they sell the sponges at some airports and department stores. Then, I found that Japanese women buy this konjac sponge, Konjac no Chikara, which means the power of Konjac, and it can be purchased any drugstores in Japan. This sponge has so many positive reviews on Amazon Japan as well. This sponge is super soft. It improves your skin texture by massaging your face with it.

3. Rosette Cleansing Pasta Muddy Sea Smooth (ロゼット洗顔パスタ海泥スムース)
120g - 600 yen
