¥◇If the sponge becomes dirty, it will be difficult to apply foundation, so please keep it clean at all times. ◇When the sponge becomes dirty, apply about 1 mL (slightly larger than a 10-yen coin size) of the separately sold “Shiseido Sponge Cleaner N” to the dirty area without getting your hands or the sponge wet, and use your fingertip to wipe the sponge clean. Gently rub in to blend well with dirt, then rinse off with cold or lukewarm water. Alternatively, lightly press with a neutral detergent diluted in lukewarm water. After rinsing thoroughly so that no detergent remains, drain the water and dry well in the shade before using. ◇ If the feeling of use or finish deteriorates, please purchase a new sponge.
