Our products respect the cycles of nature and tradition.

UME EXTRACT, JAPANESE APRICOT
Prunus mume leaf extract
Properties
Ume extract improves skin tone and elasticity and reduces the signs of aging.
A story of beauty
In Japan, the observation of flowers was an aristocratic tradition and celebrated the arrival of spring, of rebirth. The flower of Ume was a symbol, expressed in pictorial art and poetry. We buy Ume from the Wakayama region which, since the Edo period (17th-19th century), is the number one producer in Japan. During the flowering season its majestic landscape is described as 'millions of trees captured in a single glance with a floral scent that lasts for ten miles.
UJI LEAF EXTRACT, JAPANESE GREEN TEA

Uji extract has antioxidant and anti erythema qualities.
Let's start with the fifth element of taste
Uji tea from Kyoto is the most prestigious in Japan. In May, its leaves produce the highest concentration of sweetness and umami flavors, the fifth element of taste, so its buds are expertly covered by reeds (Ooshita Saibai) to protect them.
JAPANESE MATATABI KIWY LEAF EXTRACT

Traveling again
The kiwy in Japan was a fruit linked to travelers who ate it to revitalize and strengthen themselves. In early summer, its leaves turn white to attract pollinating insects.

Rosa multiflora fruit extract
Properties
Rose multiflora extract reduces the appearance of pores.
Irresistible red
