Hi, I’m Irene. A familiar face on a Japanese skincare pack can help you find the brand, but it doesn’t tell you which product you’re holding. Let’s check this red tube together before deciding whether it belongs in your shopping basket.
Look for “重曹泡洗顔” on the 100 g tube
This guide covers Keana Nadeshiko Baking Soda Foam Face Wash, the regular 100 g tube marked 毛穴撫子 重曹泡洗顔. It is a cosmetic face wash, not a medicine. The important character to spot is 泡, meaning foam. This is not the rice mask, rice powder wash or baking-soda powder scrub.
The manufacturer’s listed price is ¥1,100 including Japanese tax, checked on 14 November 2026. Actual shop prices and stock may differ. Take the full Japanese name to the shelf: matching only the brand’s illustrated face is an easy way to pick up a different item.
Foaming cleanser does not mean a foam pump
This is a tube cleanser that you lather yourself, not a bottle dispensing ready-made foam. A foaming net is optional according to the manufacturer. That distinction matters if you are choosing something for a small hotel bathroom: consider whether you prefer making lather or dispensing it directly.
The formula includes sodium bicarbonate as a cleansing ingredient and moisturising ingredients including hyaluronic acid, collagen, honey and royal jelly. This is a finished cosmetic formula, not an instruction to wash your face with kitchen baking soda. Ingredient names alone also cannot tell you whether a cleanser will suit your skin.
Three steps, without turning cleansing into scrubbing
- Make lather. Take an appropriate amount into your hand and lather well. The official directions do not specify a centimetre length, so don’t treat an invented number as the recommended dose.
- Wash with the foam. Gently move the lather over your skin, following the manufacturer’s massage-like washing direction. The point of this step guide is to keep the sequence clear, not to encourage stronger pressure.
- Rinse thoroughly without rubbing. The manufacturer also suggests a final cool-water rinse. Do not interpret that wording as a promise of permanent pore shrinkage.
If it doesn’t suit your skin
General skincare guidance: don’t keep using a product that causes irritation. Stop and seek professional advice if symptoms persist. This short note is not a transcription of the complete package precautions; read the instructions and warnings on your actual tube before use.
If your current cleanser works well, recognising a familiar Japanese brand is not a reason by itself to replace it. Decide based on the format you want and your own skin’s response, rather than expecting a face wash to solve every visible pore concern.
Irene’s shelf-to-sink takeaway
Red tube + full product name + 100 g → lather yourself → rinse without rubbing. Save that sequence alongside a clear product photo. It helps you identify the right item and understand the work involved before you buy, without turning a shopping guide into a promise of results.
