Noevir Noevir 99

NOEVIR is a Japanese beauty company with a long history in cosmetic skincare. The brand's product lines are often numbered, with 99 being one of its best-known line identifiers. The 99 range is positioned as a complete basic routine - from cleanse through to moisturizer - suitable for daily use. It emphasizes gentle, balanced formulas suited to all skin types. The 99 Plus sub-line expands the original 99 products with enhanced or reformulated versions. On Skinsli, the collection includes both the base 99 Moisturizer and the 99 Plus variants, making it possible to compare the original and enhanced formulas.

The 99 Plus Gentle Cleansing Foam (100g) is a foam facial cleanser positioned as the second step in a double-cleanse routine, or the sole cleanser for those who skip oil cleansing. The "Gentle" designation indicates a mild formula suited to sensitive or balanced skin rather than a deep-clean or clarifying formula. In Japanese skincare, gentle foam cleansers are often preferred to preserve the skin's moisture balance. At 100g, it is a standard daily-use cleanser size for 2-3 months of use. The duplicate listing (99 Plus Cleaning Foam Gentle 100g) is the same product under a slightly different title.

The 99 Plus Cleansing Lotion (160ml) is a lotion-format makeup remover or first-cleanse product. Cleansing lotions in Japanese skincare are typically water-based or emulsion formulas that remove light makeup, sunscreen, and daytime residue more gently than oil cleansers. The 160ml size is generous for a cleansing lotion and provides 2-4 months of daily use. It is used on dry or damp skin before the cleansing foam, then either wiped off with a cotton pad or rinsed. For minimal makeup days, a cleansing lotion alone can be sufficient as the sole cleanse step.

The 99 Plus Refreshing Balancing Lotion (160ml) is the toner step in the 99 routine. In Japanese skincare, "lotion" in the toning context refers to a first-step after cleansing - the equivalent of a toner or essence in other naming conventions. "Balancing" indicates the formula supports the skin's pH and oil-water balance after cleansing. "Refreshing" suggests a lighter, water-forward texture. This product is applied after cleansing and before moisturizer. At 160ml, it is sized for regular daily use. The 5-pack option (Pack of 5 x 160ml) is the most economical format for those who use the balancing lotion consistently - it reduces per-unit cost and eliminates reorder frequency for months.

The 99 Plus Refreshing Balancing Lotion is available in a 5-pack in addition to the single 160ml bottle. Five units provide a 10-month supply at one bottle per 2 months (or roughly 5-8 months for daily users). This format suits shoppers who have already established the balancing lotion as a routine staple and want to reduce the cost and frequency of repurchasing. Buying in volume also removes the risk of running out between reorders.

Both the 99 Refreshing Moisturizer (100ml) and 99 Plus Refreshing Moisturizer (110ml) are available in the collection. The Plus variant is 10ml larger and likely contains an enhanced formula compared to the original. "Refreshing" in both names suggests a lighter, gel or water-based cream texture rather than a rich or heavy moisturizer. This makes both options appropriate for normal, combination, or oily skin that wants adequate moisture without a heavy feel. For dry skin needing richer moisture, a heavier cream supplementing one of these moisturizers may be needed.

A full routine using the 99 Plus line: PM - apply 99 Plus Cleansing Lotion to remove makeup and daily residue, then follow with 99 Plus Gentle Cleansing Foam. AM - 99 Plus Gentle Cleansing Foam alone is sufficient. After cleansing (AM and PM): apply 99 Plus Refreshing Balancing Lotion as the toning step. Finish with the 99 Refreshing Moisturizer or 99 Plus Refreshing Moisturizer. This four-product routine covers every basic daily step from the 99 line without adding products from other brands.

NOEVIR is a Japanese brand, and Japanese skincare (J-beauty) takes a somewhat different approach to Korean skincare (K-beauty). J-beauty routines tend toward fewer, higher-quality steps with subtler fragrance and a focus on long-term skin preservation. The 99 line reflects this: a cleanser, a balancing lotion, and a moisturizer cover the essential steps without layering multiple essences, serums, and sleeping packs. For shoppers familiar with Korean skincare who want a simpler, Japanese-style routine, the 99 line offers a streamlined three-to-four-step option within a single brand.
