Product Description:
Horse oil has been a fixture in Japanese bathhouses and onsen towns for generations, and this is the everyday version of it. The Kumanoyushi Japanese body soap is a 600ml body wash built around horse oil, a traditional moisturizing ingredient whose composition sits close to the skin’s own natural oils. It cleanses while leaving skin feeling soft rather than squeaky.
The formula pairs horse oil with camellia oil, glycerin, and hyaluronic acid, and works up into a rich, dense lather that spreads easily over the body. It is a silicone-free formula, and it rinses clean without leaving a slippery film behind. Skin feels smooth and comfortable after towelling off, which is why the bottle is a familiar sight in Japanese bathrooms.
This body wash suits anyone with dry or tight-feeling skin who wants something more nourishing than a basic gel. Note that horse oil is an animal-derived ingredient, so this is not a vegan product, and the formula contains fragrance and parabens.
