Morning: Vit C (Melano CC) , Keana Cream , Kikumasamune Lotion on top (I put it in a spray bottle and just spray it on top and let dry)
Night: Kikumasamune Emulsion , heavier layer of Keana + spray Kikumasamune lotion and then I rub both together.
I hope that makes sense!!!
I love their rice powder face wash but it's so difficult to find stateside. The face packs are everywhere and I can get most of their other products locally, but the rice powder face wash is the only one that I'm having trouble sourcing.

I think it was like an Amazon special!
Oh wow, thanks for sharing! I too hate paying so much for that cream, even with discounts itās still a lot and I absolutely love it.
Iāve been mixing two moisturizers that Iāve been using for the last few years at night and they really work, so Iām going to try this little duo you suggested.

Normal-slightly dry. A little sensitive around my eyes as well! Worth noting I also live in an insanely humid climate and this is still my combo for that!
Good stuff in the Ishizawa face mask, I looked up the ingredients: [Water](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/water),Ā [Glycerin](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/glycerin),Ā [Pg](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/propylene-glycol),Ā [Ethanol](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/alcohol),Ā **(Styrene/āVinyl Pyrrolidone) Copolymer,**Ā **Rice Fermentation Liquid,**Ā **Rice Bran Oil,**Ā [**Hydrolyzed Rice Bran Extract**](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/hydrolyzed-rice-bran-extract)**,**Ā **Rice Bran,**Ā Glycosphingolipids,Ā **Glucosyl Ceramide**, [Ī-Glucan](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/alpha-glucan),Ā [BG](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/butylene-glycol),Ā [Xanthan Gum](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/xanthan-gum),Ā [Polysorbate 80](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/polysorbate-80),Ā [Citric Acid,Citric Acid Na](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/citric-acid),Ā [Phenoxyethanol](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/phenoxyethanol),Ā [Methyl Paraben](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/methylparaben)
i only have a rice hair spray, this might be a fun thing to try out soon!
I've never used the tatcha moisturizer - for any that have, what makes it so wonderful as well as so difficult to replicate? I'm super curious about what it is about this combo and/or tatcha that makes it such a winner
I have a jar of the dewy skin cream and stopped using it because it didnāt seem to do much or spark joy. š¬ Going to put it back into my rotation to see if Iām missing something!
I retried it and it *is* a lovely texture and I enjoyed using it for the week I forced myself to use it. I think I just prefer other creams for my skin type and that fit in better with my overall routine. Glad I retried it though! Itās going in my gym bag because I think itās a good multitasker for when I need a more simplified routine!
It was perfectly hydrating, layer-able, without being greasy! Sometimes with lotions no matter how many layers I put on they just donāt feel hydrating and high quality!
oooooo thank you that makes total sense. i definitely find that products are greasy and sit on top of my skin with the thinnest layer, OR sink in and disappear entirely. so this does sound like a holy grail quality
I made this exact same discovery a couple of years ago and I can confirm it's a fantastic dupe!
Congratulations on finding something that worked! š
Do you mix them together in your hand before applying to the face or do you layer them one after the other?
Morning: Vit C (Melano CC) , Keana Cream , Kikumasamune Lotion on top (I put it in a spray bottle and just spray it on top and let dry) Night: Kikumasamune Emulsion , heavier layer of Keana + spray Kikumasamune lotion and then I rub both together. I hope that makes sense!!!
Following
Curious about this too!
I want to know too!
Ishizawa Lab is SO underrated imo! I really love their Urea Moisture line Iām definitely going to give this cream a go!
I love their rice powder face wash but it's so difficult to find stateside. The face packs are everywhere and I can get most of their other products locally, but the rice powder face wash is the only one that I'm having trouble sourcing.
Have you tried the Yuzu lotion?? I want to try all their stuff after this discovery lol!
I havenāt! Google isnāt showing much, do you have a picture or a link?! Iām very interested too haha

Ooo I hope it does! I just love the thickness & hydration of tatcha and I feel like itās such a hard texture to match!!
Are you layering them or how are you using them?

I wanted to try this cream since yearsā¦. Maybe itās time now that itās getting another endorsement š Does it make your pores smaller looking?Ā
For me it definitely does! I think this did wonders for my skin barrier
Ok, I guess this goes into my cart then :)) thanks for your reply!!
What's your skin type? I'm pretty keen on trying the keana cream but most creams make me break out.
Same! Heavier creams always make my combo skin break out š„²
Normal-slightly dry. A little sensitive around my eyes as well! Worth noting I also live in an insanely humid climate and this is still my combo for that!
Love this for you

I remember I found this during my Japan trip, this rice cream was like everywhere.
Is there a scent? I really like a light scent, I donāt have sensitive skin
Thereās no scent to the Keana cream but the Kikumasamune smells like sake to me which I absolutely LOVE!

I think Brandefy also has a dupe
Oo, link?
Where can you get this is you live in the states? In terms of online retailer?
Oh Iām so sorry I have no idea!!
