Quasi-drug persimmon tannin body soap that cleanses and deodorises with natural botanical actives.
About this product
Japan's botanical deodorising body wash rooted in centuries of traditional plant wisdom — Kumano Yushi's Shikioriori Medicated Persimmon Tannin Foam Body Soap uses kakishibu (persimmon tannin) — a traditional Japanese botanical long valued for its astringent, deodorising, and skin-toning properties — as its quasi-drug active ingredient. Persimmon tannin's natural polyphenol compounds are believed to suppress odour-causing bacteria on the skin while contributing an astringent effect that tightens pores and controls excess sebum. As a government-approved quasi-drug formula, this body soap delivers a hygiene function beyond what ordinary body wash claims. The foam format provides full, even coverage with minimal effort.
How to use
- Wet body thoroughly in the shower.
- Press the pump 2–3 times to dispense foam directly onto skin or into a sponge.
- Work the foam over the entire body, concentrating on areas prone to odour — underarms, back, feet.
- Leave the foam on skin for 30 seconds for maximum deodorising contact time.
- Rinse completely with warm water.

FAQ
What is kakishibu and why is it used?
Kakishibu is fermented persimmon juice rich in tannins — used in Japanese folk tradition for its deodorising and astringent benefits.
Will it dry out my skin?
The astringent tannin effect is balanced by glycerin and conditioning surfactants; not excessively drying for most skin.
Is it suitable for odour control?
Yes — the quasi-drug active is specifically approved for a deodorising function.
Can people with sensitive skin use it?
Patch-test recommended as tannins can be astringent for very sensitive skin.
Is it fragrance-free?
The Shikioriori line uses a mild botanical scent; confirm on label.
🇵🇭 For Philippines customers
In the Philippines, where a tropical climate, active commuting, and physically demanding work — from market vendors to construction workers to tricycle drivers — combine to create persistent body odour challenges, a body soap with government-certified deodorising efficacy goes far beyond what a scented drugstore wash can claim.
Kumano Yushi's Shikioriori Medicated Persimmon Tannin Foam Body Soap uses kakishibu (persimmon tannin) — a Japanese botanical with centuries of use as a natural deodoriser and astringent — as its quasi-drug active; the polyphenol compounds in persimmon tannin work at the source of odour rather than masking it with fragrance, making it effective through long outdoor shifts in 30°C+ heat.
