“SKIN REFLECT” has long been an ADDICTION obsession.
It is the philosophy of creating skin that manipulates light.
The key to a finish that reflects light beautifully is perfecting the skin below your base makeup.
Through her extensive work behind the scenes with models from around the world, our creative director KANAKO reached the conclusion that smooth natural skin is what truly supports the creation of a beautiful finish.
Now, the products that KANAKO has long envisioned to achieve that perfection are finally here.
Presenting two types of conditioning skin care— a micro peeling toner and a polish powder infused with enzymes and clay.
Our focus is on the daily rebirth of skin.
Use your skincare routine to remove unwanted impurities and promote poreless skin bathed in light, ever free from buildup.
This is the first step to fostering “makeup-ready” skin that enhances the final finish.

AHAs (Malic Acid, Citric Acid)
Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) are ingredients that soften old keratin on the skin’s surface, making it easy to remove and reveal the smoothness below.
Malic and citric acid are known as fruit acids because they are found in fruits like apples and lemons.
BHA (Salicylic Acid)
This is a type of beta hydroxy acid (BHA), which has the ability to soften keratin.
Bacillus Ferment Filtrate
This extract is obtained by using Bacillus bacteria to ferment rice bran and soybean extracts. It contains amino acids created through the fermentation process. It promotes the production of envelope proteins, not only removing dead skin cells but also nourishing the skin and strengthening the skin barrier.
