KIYOME and TANE Differences
The difference between KIYOME and TANE arises from the developers' differing visions for the products.
Please allow us to explain the differences between KIYOME and TANE from the following three perspectives:
① Developer's vision
② Differences in ingredients between KIYOME and TANE
③ The fragrance of KIYOME and TANE
① Developer's Vision
The development concepts for KIYOME and TANE are completely different.
TANE, which was developed first, was created with the developer's child's skin in mind.
When washing a child's sensitive skin, everything unrelated to cleansing was thoroughly removed, and TANE was born as "a soap for gently washing the skin".
KIYOME, developed next, is a product that the CEO of Chant created for herself in her 40s, for anti-aging care, with the desire to "wash with soap that makes my skin happy."
Based on skin-friendly TANE, it is generously packed with ingredients that the developer personally felt were "good!" after her own research and testing.
・TANE is a product born from "subtractive development," removing all unnecessary elements.
・KIYOME is a product developed through "additive development," incorporating elements that delight the skin into TANE.
② Differences in ingredients between KIYOME and TANE
In line with their development concepts, TANE contains ingredients for gentle cleansing, while KIYOME contains more ingredients that delight the skin.
Ingredients used only in TANE
An ingredient unique to TANE that is not found in KIYOME is camellia seed powder (cleansing ingredient).
The camellia seed powder used in TANE is a nutrient-rich powder also used in organic vegetable farming.
The camellia seed powder remaining after pressing camellia oil contains saponins and various trace elements.
The gritty texture you feel when using TANE comes from the camellia seed powder.
Ingredients used only in KIYOME
KIYOME has carefully selected oils added to provide moisture and firmness to the skin.
Furthermore, to refresh a tired mind, we also created a forest bathing fragrance with essential oils.
The following four ingredients are unique to KIYOME and are not used in TANE:
Argan oil / Sunflower oil / Rice fermentation extract / Essential oils
Details about each ingredient included in KIYOME are explained in the article below.
Common and uncommon ingredients in KIYOME and TANE
Here are the ingredients commonly found in KIYOME and TANE, and those not found in either.
| Common Ingredients | Ingredients Not Commonly Found |
| ・Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate ・Aged Sake Lees Extract ・Rice Bran Oil ・Camellia Oil ・Kaolin |
・Alkaline soap components |
Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is the cleansing ingredient in both KIYOME and TANE.
Unlike alkaline cleansing ingredients, it gently cleanses with a mildly acidic foam, similar to the skin's pH.
② The Fragrance of KIYOME and TANE
As a result of thoroughly removing unnecessary ingredients, TANE became fragrance-free. It is a product that even those sensitive to fragrances can use comfortably.
On the other hand, KIYOME has a calming scent added with the desire to refresh the body and soothe the mind.
Natural essential oils are blended exclusively for KIYOME, creating an original "Purification Scent" that evokes the expansive aroma of a forest and blooming flowers.

KIYOME and TANE have different amounts of aged sake lees extract
KIYOME contains 10 times the amount of aged sake lees extract as TANE.
The abundant aged sake lees extract enhances moisturizing effects, providing moisture and firmness to the skin.
Effects of Aged Sake Lees Extract (Moisturizer)
Aged sake lees extract, produced using methods that have continued since the Edo period, is generated through 1,000 hours of low-temperature aging.
The ingredients it contains are natural components such as amino acids, kojic acid, organic acids, and α-EG.
The natural ingredients in aged sake lees extract provide moisture and firmness to the skin through their moisturizing effects.
If you're torn between KIYOME and TANE
We recommend using KIYOME and TANE as follows:
TANE is a soap that contains only the necessary ingredients for gentle cleansing of the skin.
For sensitive skin prone to troubles, gently cleanse with TANE.
KIYOME contains more ingredients that enhance moisturizing effects compared to TANE.
For dry, aging skin, aim for moist, firm skin with KIYOME's moisturizing effects.
Reasons why KIYOME is more expensive than TANE
There are two reasons why KIYOME is more expensive than TANE:
・Uses Argan oil (moisturizer)
・Uses 10 times the amount of aged sake lees extract (moisturizer) compared to TANE
The price of argan oil (moisturizer) is 50 times that of cooking oil.
The argan tree, from which argan oil is extracted, is a rare tree that grows only in Morocco, a country in Northwest Africa.
Its demand has increased in recent years due to its perceived beauty benefits, leading to high prices.
Aged sake lees extract (moisturizer) is an extract made by Watari Honten, a long-established sake brewery in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture, using traditional methods passed down since the Edo period.
The extract obtained through approximately 1,000 hours of low-temperature aging contains natural ingredients that differ from those found in extracts mass-produced by machines.
KIYOME is more expensive than TANE because it generously incorporates moisturizing ingredients such as argan oil and aged sake lees extract.
