Focus on Arashiro, Selected for the Grand Tour "Giro d'Italia"
Yukiya Arashiro, appointed as the image ambassador for "FOUCAUD PARIS," is affiliated with the French team Bbox Bouygues Telecom. Last July, he became the first Japanese rider in 13 years to compete in the Tour de France, successfully completing the race and achieving a commendable 5th place in Stage 2. He is a promising young rider currently participating in the "Giro d'Italia," a three-week Grand Tour across the Italian peninsula, where significant contributions are expected from him within the team.
FOUCAUD PARIS, for whom Arashiro serves as image ambassador, centers its body care series around the theme "Banish tiredness" – enabling users to feel their best every day. The lineup features items, primarily body tonics, designed to help maintain optimal physical and mental condition with a positive outlook, to be used daily after bathing or showering. FOUCAUD PARIS, made with pure essential oils as its main ingredient, is gentle on the body and its ease of use as an aromatherapy experience is a key to its popularity. It is ideal for the following individuals:
Those fatigued by the stresses of a hectic daily life and crowded commutes.
Individuals who engage in sports and wish to refresh muscle fatigue.
Those seeking refreshment through aromatherapy body care.
People experiencing leg swelling or heaviness due to prolonged standing or work.
Sportsman Oil
Natural ingredients relieve muscle tension before and after sports, and protect the skin from chafing during physical activity. (Apply an appropriate amount and massage into muscles.)
Friction de FOUCAUD (125mL)
Spray Type
The very first FOUCAUD PARIS product, developed in 1946. With a recipe unchanged for over 60 years, it remains a favorite among many French people. This handy spray type is ideal for daily body care, as well as after sports or showering.
Friction de FOUCAUD (250mL)
After your daily shower or bath, dispense an appropriate amount into your palm and massage from the wrist up to the elbow, using a squeezing motion. For legs, while seated, apply an appropriate amount and massage from the ankle up the calf to the knee with slightly firmer pressure.
Founder Madame Merle, combining her knowledge of aromatherapy and phytotherapy with the expertise of a pharmacist, first developed "Friction de FOUCAUD," a body tonic positioned between medicine and cosmetics. This formulation has remained unchanged for over 60 years and is widely cherished, particularly in Europe and France.
STM Leg Gel
For those who experience fatigue and swelling in their legs due to prolonged sitting or standing work. (Apply to the entire calf and massage gently from top to bottom.)
Invigorating Shower Gel
Provides an energetic and refreshing sensation, leaving the skin feeling moisturized and supple. (Dispense an appropriate amount onto a sponge or washcloth, lather, and wash from the feet upwards.)
RWV Massage Oil
A revitalizing massage oil made with 100% pure plant oils. (Apply an appropriate amount and massage to promote blood circulation and lymphatic flow.)
The herbal aroma of the essential oils induces relaxation, while the massage enhances blood circulation, alleviating swelling and muscle fatigue, and supporting the excretion of lactic acid, a cause of tiredness. Its convenience for use anytime, anywhere – during daily baths, before or after sports, or for relaxing massage sessions – is another key appeal.
