Absolutely no petroleum-derived synthetic ingredients. All emulsifiers, preservatives, etc., are plant-derived.
The KAGURE skincare series is formulated with abundant plant extracts, meticulously researched and selected to actively benefit modern women's skin. It nurtures skin burdened by damage, guiding it towards radiance.
This 'KAGURE holistic beauty' skincare series was supervised by Kazuko Komatsu, a professional hair and makeup artist who, after developing chemical hypersensitivity (a condition where one reacts to minute amounts of chemicals after exposure to chronic or high levels, resulting in a wide range of symptoms), delved into natural cosmetics and continues to work at the forefront of the industry.
Absolutely no petroleum-derived synthetic ingredients are used; emulsifiers, preservatives, and the like are all plant-derived. The line blends ingredients familiar to Japanese people for centuries, such as luffa water, getto water, and rice bran oil—all cultivated without pesticides using organic fertilizers—with ingredients highly regarded in recent years for their potent anti-aging effects.
Among the five products in the newly released skincare series, the 'BEAUTY OIL' care oil is particularly noteworthy. Users warm a single capsule of oil between their hands and gently massage it onto the face and décolleté, experiencing a tangible sense of replenishing moisture in both skin and spirit.
