3 Reasons Why KANEBO’s Famous Daytime Cream is a Secret Weapon for Ikeoji

3 Reasons Why KANEBO's Famous Daytime Cream is a Secret Weapon for Ikeoji

There are some handsome men who are not just “good for their age,” but who exude the charm of sophisticated adults. Their mature atmosphere, concern for others, professional attitude, and the ability to enjoy life – all combine to create an austere radiance. I am a beauty geek who sincerely wishes to increase the number of such wonderful men. I leave the internal refinement to each individual, but I would like to take on the task of improving their external appearance. In this project, I will introduce items that I have carefully selected. I hope that through my articles, there will be as many attractive, good-looking males as possible. In this third installment, I will introduce a daytime cream that can also be used as a sunscreen.

A single application in the morning provides moisturizing, sunscreen, and skin correction.Actually, daytime cream is the best solution for morning skin care!

As we age, our skin tends to become dull and the effects of UV rays from our youth begin to appear in our 30s and 40s. Many people understand the importance of skincare, but find it difficult to take a serious approach. In particular, mornings are a busy time of day, and people tend to shy away from the increased number of skincare procedures. It is difficult to make sure that an introductory serum, lotion, essence, milky lotion/cream, and sunscreen …… are all done well every day. For this reason, many men say, “I just end up using all-in-one items. However, all-in-one items for men often do not provide sufficient protection against dryness, especially in winter, and may leave them feeling inadequate. We also hear that some men want to keep their skin looking clean during the day, but do not know what specific items to use.

To address this issue, I recommend KANEBO’s ” Cream in Day, ” which combines a milky lotion, cream, sunscreen, and skin-correcting base all in one product. This item is already very popular among women, having ranked first in the face cream category in the @cosme ranking. Many repeat buyers are buying this item because of its many functions and high moisturizing power, which is great for this season. The author also started using it last winter and is using it again this winter. I am writing this article because I think it is too much of a waste that women have a monopoly on this goodness. While women use Cream-in-Day as a makeup base, I would like to suggest men to use this cream as a milky lotion (cream) and sunscreen. Below are the reasons and recommendations.

KANEBO Cream-in-a-Day's recommendation point 1All processes after lotion can be completed with this one product

The morning skincare routine that the author recommends for men is face wash -> lotion -> milky lotion (cream) -> sunscreen. KANEBO’s Cream-in-a-Day allows you to complete the milky lotion (cream) → sunscreen process in a single step. If you are currently completing your skincare routine with just a face wash and toner, you can dramatically improve the quality of your skincare routine with just one additional item. If you are using an all-in-one gel for men after washing your face, just change that item to Cream-in-a-Day and you will get a highly moisturizing + sunscreen effect. What is great about Cream-in-a-Day is that it even corrects the skin. The cream is light pink in color, and it helps to tone the skin’s blood tone. When spread over the skin, it is almost colorless and transparent, so it does not hide redness or blemishes, but it does reduce the appearance of pores. It is not a BB cream or CC cream, so there is almost no need to worry that others will notice that you are correcting your skin. In a sense, it is the ultimate stealth makeup.

KANEBO Cream-in-Day's Recommended Point 2It also provides UV protection, the great enemy of blemishes and wrinkles!

Blemishes emphasize the appearance of aging and can sometimes be a factor that affects one’s self-esteem. Therefore, blemish control is an extremely important aspect of skin care that affects one’s appearance. As mentioned in the article ” He Who Wins the Battle Against Blemishes Wins the World of Good-Looking Men [ A Complete Manual of Four Blemish Control and Prevention Measures ],” skin care and a regular lifestyle are essential in the fight against blemishes. However, just as important, if not more so, are measures against ultraviolet rays. UV rays not only cause blemishes, but also disrupt the skin’s turnover and accelerate the aging process, such as wrinkles and sagging skin. Therefore, it is recommended to use sunscreen regardless of the season, but the reality is that very few men use sunscreen in winter. Some of the reasons given are that ” sunscreen is time-consuming ” and ” I don’t want my skin to be sticky.

Cream-in-Day is SPF20/PA+++ and is ideal for winter UV protection; using SPF50 sunscreen in winter is too much and may cause skin burden, so SPF15~30 is best for winter. It is also ideal for men who feel that skin care is too much work.

KANEBO Cream-in-a-Day's Recommended Point 3

Many men may find it troublesome to have to use a makeup remover (cleansing item) at night when using sunscreen or a skin-correcting base. Even if they can reduce their morning skincare routine, if they have to spend more time at night, they may feel that the burden is still the same and that they have to “pay less than zero.” In particular, cleansing items can be a burden to the skin, and this tends to be a hurdle for men who seek convenience in continuing their skincare regimen. In this respect, the major appeal of Cream-in-Day is that it does not require cleansing and can be easily washed off with a regular facial cleanser or soap. While the formula is gentle on the skin, it also provides UV protection and moisturizing effects, making it possible to simplify nighttime care while protecting the skin during the day. This item is ideal for people with busy schedules, as it not only shortens morning time, but also does not require more effort at night. This ease of use will be a major factor in making skincare more accessible and easier to continue.

The full-size product costs 8,800 yen (including tax) for 40g, which is not inexpensive, but the amount used per day is actually quite small, so the cost performance is surprisingly good. A half-size is also available, so please give it a try.
