E-SPECIAL by Dr. ERI Cleansing Gel V No Double Cleansing 500ml Made in Japan

E-SPECIAL by Dr. ERI is a Japanese doctor's cosmetics skincare brand developed by Dr. Eri Katagiri, Supervising Director of Eri Clinic Omotesando in Tokyo. The brand's approach places particular emphasis on hydration and avoiding over-cleansing, helping cleanse the skin without unnecessarily stripping away moisture.

Cleansing Gel V Big Bottle 500ml

E-SPECIAL Cleansing Gel V is one of the brand's signature cleansing products. This 500mL Big Bottle contains approximately four times the volume of the standard 120mL size, making it particularly practical for regular users and for those who prefer to use a generous amount of gel to minimise friction during cleansing.

More than simply a makeup remover, Cleansing Gel V is designed around the concept of cleansing with the feel of a beauty serum. The formula combines concentrated sodium hyaluronate, soluble collagen, edelweiss extract, dill extract and other skincare ingredients. Its smooth gel blends quickly with makeup, excess sebum and pore impurities, then emulsifies with water to rinse away sweat, dust and other impurities. Makeup removal and facial cleansing are completed in one step, with no double cleansing required.

Key Features

  Approximately four times the volume of the standard 120mL bottle, ideal for regular users and for applying a generous amount of gel to help minimise rubbing during cleansing.
• Serum-like cleansing formula:
  Formulated with concentrated sodium hyaluronate, soluble collagen, edelweiss extract, dill extract and other skincare ingredients, with an emphasis on maintaining moisture while cleansing.

  The gel lifts makeup, excess sebum and pore impurities, while emulsifying with water helps rinse away sweat and dust. No second facial cleanser is required.
• Helps avoid over-cleansing:
  Dr. ERI's cleansing approach focuses on removing impurities without unnecessary repeated cleansing or excessive rubbing that can strip moisture from the skin.

Use with dry hands on a dry face. Dispense an appropriate amount into your palm and gently warm the gel between your hands. Apply to several areas of the face, including the cheeks, forehead and chin, then spread gently from the centre outwards.

Avoid rubbing. Use your palms to gently press and blend the cleanser over the skin, allowing it to dissolve makeup and impurities. Around the nose, gently massage with the pads of your fingers. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water at approximately 36–37°C. No second facial cleanser is required.

Notes

Use on a dry face with dry hands. Particularly resistant waterproof eye makeup may require a dedicated eye makeup remover; avoid excessive rubbing around the eye area. Because the formula contains hyaluronic acid and oils, it may thicken or solidify at low temperatures. If this occurs, follow the brand's recommendation to gently warm the container in warm water or shake it thoroughly before use.
