Shiseido perfect whip facial cleansing foam and perfect oil

This was my first foray into Japanese cleansing routine: a wet face, an oil wash, followed by a foam cleanser and a water rinse.

This is supposed to be the "Cetaphil" of Japan - not too harsh and not too expensive. These products lived up to their billing, cleaning my skin without any irritation or dryness. The oil cleansing step was useful for removing any stubborn makeup. I really enjoyed the foaming of the face wash!

Both are easily found in any drugstore and are under 500 yen if I recall correctly (the oil might be more).
