Reset & Rescue Skincare

Thursday October 2, 2025

Strong summer sunlight and air conditioning may leave your skin feeling a little tired.

Here we introduce reset & rescue care, perfect for this season to gently care for your skin.

With our concern-based skin chart, find the perfect partner for your current skin condition and aim for healthy, hydrated skin.

Skin trouble Chart

First, select three of your current most pressing skin concerns from the chart below.

Once you’ve chosen three, count which type, A or B, appears more often.

Based on this result, we will guide you to the skincare that suits your needs.

A skincare concern chart with two sections, A and B, each featuring illustrations and Japanese text for different skin issues.

A. Reset Skincare

If you feel roughness or irritation on your skin’s surface, start with cleansing care to reset your skin. By removing excess dead cells and supporting the skin’s barrier, you maximize the benefits of lotions and emulsions used afterward.
