Asia is well-known to be far ahead in their skin care products. I read that Japan is one of the many few countries out there who are really cautious about what they put in their beauty products. Their native consumers are quite aware of which ingredients are beneficial and which are not which makes it difficult for brands who put a lot of synthetics in their products to sell. Doing all this research led me to a brand called: Koh Gen Do (Gen pronounced like ghen, not jen). The first product I decided to purchase was their Oriental Plants lotion for dry skin.
"Recommended for normal, dry, and combination skin, this ultranourishing lotion contains 36 botanical extracts and conditioning agents to plump and refine skin before protecting with an emollient. Time-release ingredients help skin hold abundant moisture while calming agents soothe tired skin. Easy to use and versatile, it can be applied as a moisturizing liquid as well as used as a mask for fast, instant hydration and a smooth, beautiful complexion. " Sephora
Ingredients Review: Butylene Glycol isn't harmful, but do not use this product close to the eye area. Phenoxyethanol is an ingredient that is usually restricted in Japan, maybe the company put a very small dosage into the product where it isn't really a big deal. But overall I am very impressed with how they're not as many alarming ingredients put into this magic lotion compared to other brands which have 5-8.
