The testing cycle is as such: 1) No pimple on skin > 2) Apply product > 3) Pimples spotted after a day > 4) Wait till skin recovers > Start testing again. I tend to spot pimples whenever this lotion was included in my beauty regimen. After testing this lotion repeatedly, I couldn’t rule out if this is safe for my pimple-prone skin. This is the reason why I took more than a year to review Kose Medicated Sekkisei Day Essence.

Review of Kose Medicated Sekkisei Day Essence Packaging: Elegant but Heavy It took me more than a year to complete my testing and review of Kose Medicated Sekkisei Day Essence, for reasons you will get to learn in a while.

However, the product I’ve chosen – a day lotion – may not be the best representation of the brand’s success.
