Pore Care x Moisture Care Simultaneously. A New Concept: "Non-Drying Clay Pack" - "Double Clear Mask" with High-Concentration Carbonation* x Domestic Clay** Released in Limited Quantities

CO2 Plus Inc. (Headquarters: Hiroshima Prefecture), led by carbonated beauty expert Hiromi Takahashi, who has been researching carbonated beauty for over 25 years, will release a limited-edition "Double Clear Mask," a "foaming/mousse-like clay pack" that combines high-concentration (1,000ppm or more) carbonation* and domestic clay**.

This product introduces a new approach: a "non-drying clay pack" that overturns the conventional wisdom that "clay packs = drying."

It is a special care item for adult pore care that achieves both pore dirt care and a moisturized finish.

CO2 Plus Inc. (Headquarters: Hiroshima Prefecture, Representative Director: Hiromi Takahashi, Carbonated Beauty Expert), a pioneer in carbonated beauty that has been researching the cosmetic effects of carbon dioxide gas since 1996, will release a new sensation foaming pack, "fromCO2 Double Clear Mask," which encapsulates high-concentration carbon dioxide gas* of 1,000ppm or more in domestic clay** using proprietary technology, in limited quantities starting April 20, 2026 (Monday).

This product was born from a new skincare idea: a "non-drying carbonated clay pack" that simultaneously solves the traditional clay pack's problem of "tendency to dry" and the carbonated pack's hurdle of "the effort of mixing."

It is a new special care product combining carbonated foam and clay, which simultaneously provides pore dirt adsorption care and a moisturized finish.

<New Concept: "Foaming Clay Pack" for New Pore Care> "fromCO2 Double Clear Mask" features dense carbonated clay foam with high-concentration (1,000ppm or more) carbon dioxide gas* dissolved in domestic clay**.

The carbonated* foam gently adheres to the skin, adsorbing pore dirt and old dead skin cells.

Furthermore, because the formula dispenses dense foam with a single push, there is no need for the "mixing effort" often associated with carbonated packs.

It was developed as a time-efficient pore care product that can be easily incorporated into busy daily routines.

<Background of Development> Simultaneously resolving the "drying" of clay packs and the "effort" of carbonated packs.

Clay packs, popular for pore care, absorb sebum and dirt, but many users reported concerns such as "skin feels tight when dry" and "skin feels dry if left on for too long."

High-concentration carbonated packs, which have attracted attention in the beauty industry, faced the hurdle of "mixing powder and gel" and "troublesome preparation," making them difficult to continue.

The "Double Clear Mask" was developed to solve these problems simultaneously.

The design allows a perfectly formed carbonated clay foam to be dispensed with a single push from the container, eliminating the need for mixing and making it easy for anyone to incorporate high-concentration carbonated packs into their routine.

The rich, dense foam gently adheres to the skin, enveloping it for about 15 minutes while adsorbing pore dirt and old dead skin cells. After rinsing, it leaves the skin feeling refreshed and moisturized, without tightness.

It is a new pore care item that provides an aesthetic salon-like care experience at home.

<"Non-Drying" Clay Pack for Adult Skin Concerns> Conventional clay packs often presented the challenge of feeling tight due to dryness.

The "Double Clear Mask" achieves a non-drying formulation design.

The dense carbonated clay foam adheres to the skin while maintaining moisture,

leading to a moist finish that doesn't feel tight even after rinsing.

It addresses common adult skin concerns such as: ・Pore problems ・Dullness due to old dead skin cells ・Roughness

and helps achieve a smooth, radiant skin appearance.

<New Proposal: Partial Use> Fastest approach to T-zone concerns

Traditional mix-type carbonated packs were primarily for "full-face use," but this product, dispensed as a foam, allows for pinpoint care only on "areas of concern" such as the nose and T-zone. By using it only on areas where pores and sebum are a concern, more efficient care can be achieved. Incorporating it as a special care once a week for about 15 minutes leads to moisturized and translucent*** skin with each wash.

(***State where dirt has been removed by cleansing)

<Domestic Clay** x High-Concentration Carbonation* Double Approach for Clear Pores> This product adopts a unique formula combining domestic clay** (adsorbent) and high-concentration carbonation* (1,000ppm or more).

The carbonated* foam gently envelops the skin, while the clay** adsorbs pore dirt, leading to a refreshing wash-off.

At the same time, we focused on maintaining skin moisture, pursuing a balance between pore care and a moisturized feel.

*Propellant/Softening and smoothing ingredient

Fusion of "Carbonation x Clay" Born from 30 Years of Carbonated Beauty Research The development of this product was led by Hiromi Takahashi, a carbonated beauty expert and representative of CO2 Plus Inc., who has been researching the cosmetic application of carbon dioxide gas since 1996.

Even before the term "carbonated beauty" became common, she focused on the potential of carbonation and has been involved in the research and development of carbonated cosmetics.

In 2012, she published a book on carbonated beauty and has been working to popularize carbonated beauty for many years through lectures and writing activities as a leading authority.

Among the knowledge cultivated over 30 years in the cosmetics industry, the approach she arrived at for "a method to achieve both exfoliation and pore care simultaneously" was the combination of carbonation and clay.

The carbonated* foam gently envelops the skin, while the clay** adsorbs pore dirt, realizing a new clay pack that is less likely to dry out the skin.

<Limited Quantity Release: A Special Carbonated Clay Pack Available Only Now> This product uses a carbonated clay foam that combines high-concentration carbonation* (1,000ppm or more) and domestic clay**.

The carbonated foam gently envelops the skin, while the clay adsorbs pore dirt and old dead skin cells, leading to a smooth skin appearance. The formula dispenses dense foam with a single push, making it easy to use without the hassle of mixing.

Furthermore, the non-drying formulation design aims for a user experience that minimizes the tightness typical of clay packs. It has been developed as a time-efficient pore care product that can be easily incorporated by busy modern people.
