Who Is This For?
Suitable for adults of all ages who like a traditional bar soap. The creamy Akabako (Red Box) is positioned for those wanting a richer feel; the Aobako (Blue Box) variant is positioned as the lighter version. Patch-test if your skin is very reactive to milk-fat ingredients.

FAQ
- Q: How is this different from the Aobako (Blue Box)?

- Q: Is it suitable for the face?
- Many people in Japan use Akabako on the face. If you have very sensitive or acne-prone skin, patch-test on the jawline first.

- Yes — the formula uses milk fat. It is not vegan.
- Q: Is it halal?
- We don't have halal certification documentation for this product. The formula uses milk fat, which is not categorically prohibited; customers requiring strict halal compliance should make their own decision.
