AKA Balancing Soap – Gentle Facial Cleansing Bar, 80g [Alcohol-free]

Enjoy a rich, creamy cleanse with AKA Balancing Soap, a Japanese facial cleansing bar from Cow Brand Soap. Drawing on the maker’s long history of soapmaking, its formula focuses on the skin’s naturally occurring resident bacteria, cleansing while helping preserve the skin flora that contributes to healthy-looking skin.

The creamy lather gently removes everyday impurities, leaving your complexion feeling clean, smooth and comfortable. Ceramide NP, sodium hyaluronate, jojoba oil, squalane and milk fat provide conditioning care within the cleansing formula, making this bar a thoughtful addition to a simple daily skincare routine.

A fresh floral fragrance adds a pleasant finishing touch to your cleanse. Herbal and citrus top notes blend with soft floral and musk notes for a balanced, refreshing scent.

The formula contains no added ethanol, parabens, synthetic dyes, petroleum-based surfactants or UV absorbers. It has undergone allergy testing, patch testing with sensitive-skin volunteers and stinging testing, although individual reactions can still occur.

Use it as your facial cleansing step, followed by your usual toner and moisturizer.

How to use

Work the soap into a generous lather with lukewarm water, using your hands or a foaming net. Gently cleanse your face with the foam, then rinse thoroughly.

When wearing makeup, use a makeup remover first. After use, drain the bar well and store it somewhere that allows it to dry between washes.
