COW BRAND Beauty Soap is a long-established Japanese brand. The red box has a light fragrance, not the kind that's overpowering or noticeably artificial. My skin also feels comfortable after washing, so it's one I personally like quite a bit.
Besides the red box, there's also a blue box to choose from. The main difference between the two is how moisturizing they are. The red box feels more moisturizing and is better suited for dry skin, while the blue box is also a good choice for normal skin. You can also choose based on the season: use the lighter, more refreshing blue box in summer, then switch to the more moisturizing red box in winter. Just choose according to your skin's condition.

Cow Brand Red Box is a classic Japanese milk soap. Its simple red packaging is easy to recognize, and it's also an everyday item many people bring home from Japan. The soap has a light milky scent and produces a fine, rich lather. After washing, your skin feels clean and refreshed.

Does this soap have a fermented smell? It’s a bit like the smell of someone who hasn’t showered in several days.
Then it has a rose fragrance on top of that. To make sure I didn’t get a defective one, I even bought a second bar.
It has a carved cow and “COW” on it, and I actually really like that detail. It kind of makes me want to hurry up and wash it down until it’s flat, haha.
I think it lathers pretty well, and it doesn’t leave my skin feeling too squeaky-clean or tight afterward. Too bad I’m not sure if I’m just too used to synthetic fragrances, but I’m not really used to this scent. It’s a long-established brand, though. -

This classic brand has been selling for so long for a reason. It's all-natural and still handmade. I always buy this soap at drugstores in Taiwan!

This is my favorite soap. It’s an old brand, so I feel really comfortable using it. I use it for both bathing and washing my face. Not only is it affordable, but it also feels great after using it. I’ve already recommended it to my friends and family! (*^_^*)
