From life comes beauty: Shiseido
In celebration of its sesquicentennial anniversary, Shiseido has launched three limited editions, representing the brand’s past, present and future respectively.
Limited-Edition 150 Year Anniversary Eudermine Revitalizing Essence, 100ml | $78
The Eudermine Revitalizing Essence would be the best representation of its heritage. First launched in 1897, it creates a water veil to give skin deep, long-lasting hydration, enhancing skin’s inner defences regardless of environment. The 150th anniversary limited edition is a reproduction of the first Eudermine glass bottle in 1897, with the original arabesque design.
Limited-Edition 150 Year Anniversary Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate, 75ml | $185
Representing the present is the innovative Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate III, a culmination of 150 years of Japanese skincare innovation. Now in its third generation, it delivers twice the skin‘s defence with ImuGenerationRED Technology, powered by The LifebloodTM. It has proven anti-pollution effect, and as vital flowing nutrients are fed to the skin, visibly reducing signs of aging is visibly reduced, hydration amplified and radiance boosted in just three days.
Limited-Edition 150 Year Anniversary Ultimune Future Power Shot, 15ml | $95
And bringing the future to us through a brand new product, the Ultimune Future Power Shot features Shiseido’s proprietary ImuGeneration150 Technology—it is infused with Ultimune’s potent ingredients in a 15-times concentration. One drop of serum contains roughly 500 trillion molecules (WD) of a firming ingredient, serum creates a tight, firm yet smooth veil over skin. The concentrated, thick texture feels light and smooth when applied to skin, and it is designed to resist stress from a possibly harsher environment in the future. Apply twice a week or whenever your skin needs an extra boost.
The 150th limited edition packaging designs symbolizing Shiseido’s DNA of art & science, are creations by its in-house design team. Based on the philosophies of Japan’s mottainai and Shiseido’s 万物資生 (Praise the virtues of the Earth, which nurtures new life and brings forth significant values.), the packaging is sustainable for the earth’s environment to help us achieve a more beautiful future.
Infinite Radiance, written in the stars: Clé de Peau Beauté
Clé de Peau Beauté celebrates 40 years of radiance with the Radiant Sky Collection. A collaboration with famed Parisian jeweller, Mr. Elie Top, who transmuted the radiance of the stars into exquisite packaging for Clé de Peau Beauté’s most luminous products. They speak of the four constellations dominating each season’s sky. spring is Persephone and the maiden of spring; summer is Cygnus the swan. Autumn is represented by the mystical Pegasus, and winter harks back to the tale of Artemis, goddess of the hunt and the moon.
