Kose Infinity Pure Advance: Essence Lotion II, Serum II

Infinity Pure Advance インフィニティ ピュア アドバンス is an anti-ageing series designed for skin in 20s and early 30s. It enlists the services of botanical ingredients (Rosa Multiflora Fruit, Shell Ginger Leaf Extract, Okra) to boost skin hydration and erase pores. I was really surprised when I failed to find information regarding this range on @cosme. Further research lead me to the assumption that it is not sold in Japan... but why when it is so so so good?

Pure Advance consists of 9 items, and I am going to review 2 of them in this entry.

Essence Lotion エッセンスローション II has a luxurious, jellified consistency and is designed to rejuvenate, hydrate and plump skin.


Milky textured Serum セラム II restores the natural oil-water balance for a poreless appearance.


It is very clever of Kosé to take these concerns (fine lines and visible pores) into consideration and address them in an age-based line with a befitting price point. I have been using both Essence Lotion II and Serum II for two weeks now and am very taken by my new regimen. These products are very nourishing and leave my skin bouncy and toned.

On the downside, the formulation contains ingredients that make my upper lip area tingle... people with sensitive skin may want to exercise caution and perform a patch test before jumping in with both feet.

Essence Lotion II (160 ml) and Serum II (120 ml) are sold at Kosé counters nationwide where you will find them for RM 169 each.

I never heard of this brand until I read this. I would love to try this one once it is available here in the Philippines.

Ohhh I want to try this! I'm such a sucker for anything anti-aging. I also have high-pain tolerance but yes, need to do patch test first. I hope this will be available in my country too :)

I'm 20 and I'm wondering that are Kose Infinity Pure Advance products suitable for my skin? My skin has already appeared visible pores but is this too soon to use serum?

Hey Nhimxiu! It's never too early to start off preventive care. Perhaps you can ask for a sample first before splurging on the full size?
