Matsunoyama Onsen is one of Japan’s top three yakuto—hot springs that are believed to have therapeutic effects. It is said to have been formed about 12 million years ago when fossilized seawater bubbled up. Matsunoyama Onsen Mist is made only from the hot spring source and water. Naturally moisturizing ingredients such as metasilicic acid lend a glow and moisture to the skin, and also have the effect of removing dirt and old keratin. Today, as traditional natural Asian and Middle Eastern cosmetics are again being recognized, this product shows the true value of a Japanese hot spring.

From Producer Yoshiaki Takazawa
"Although this onsen (hot spring) village has a long history, since it is still a relative secret due to its location deep in the mountains, with only a few people aware of its existence!

"The hot spring water is amazing in that it is composed of 15 times the ingredients necessary to meet the criteria for being recognized as an onsen. It is these ingredients that have been used to make this safe moisturizer free of chemicals or additives. This unique Japanese cosmetic makes one feel the power of a world-class medicinal spring water."
