KOSÉ Make Keep Powder EX COOL — Cooling Setting Powder for Japan's Humid Summer
KOSÉ Make Keep Powder EX COOL is a Summer 2026 limited-launch from KOSÉ's Make Keep line. It is a translucent setting powder with a built-in cooling sensation — designed to fix makeup, absorb excess oil, and give a quick refresh in humid weather. The 5g compact is travel-sized and pairs with any liquid foundation or BB cream.
The cooling effect comes from the mineral powder blend itself — no menthol or alcohol, no irritation for sensitive skin. Apply over makeup with the included puff and feel the temperature drop on contact.
Key Benefits
- Cooling sensation — temperature drops on contact thanks to the mineral powder blend.
- Long-lasting matte finish — locks down liquid foundation for up to 8 hours.
- Sebum control — absorbs excess oil throughout the day without looking cakey.
- Translucent finish — works over any foundation shade.
- Compact 5g size — fits in any bag, ideal for touch-ups.
How to Use
- Apply after liquid foundation, concealer and (optionally) cream blush.
- Press the puff lightly across face, focusing on T-zone and chin.
- For touch-ups during the day, tap puff onto shiny areas — no need to remove existing makeup.
Best For
Anyone wearing makeup in hot, humid weather. Particularly suited to combination and oily skin, summer commuters, and travellers heading to tropical climates.

Cautions
- For external use only. Avoid inhalation when applying — tap excess powder off the puff before use.

FAQ
Q: Is the cooling effect from menthol?
A: No. It comes from the mineral powder blend itself — no menthol, no alcohol. Safe for sensitive skin.
Q: Will it cake or settle into lines?
A: It is finely milled and translucent. Apply by patting, not rubbing, for the smoothest finish.
Q: Can I use it over sunscreen alone (no foundation)?
A: Yes — it works as a skin-finishing powder even without foundation.
Q: How long does the cooling sensation last?
A: A few seconds to a minute per application — it's instant on contact, not lasting cooling.
Q: Is this the authentic Japanese version?
A: Yes. We ship the Japan domestic SKU directly from Kobe with full tracking.
