New Items from 3 Best-Selling Skincare Brands

Beauty Cosmetics & Medicine

Senka, Suisai and Sekkisei are three of the most popular skincare brands in Japan. At a relatively affordable price point, and easy to locate in local pharmacies, they are quite familiar names throughout the nation. In 2016, the big three companies have been releasing hot new products and we'll showcase a few of those here.

Senka's Perfect Whip is a very popular facial cleanser here in Japan. However, after clearing your face of impurities, you'll need to apply moisturizers to soothe your freshly cleaned skin. One product is Senka's Perfect Essence Silky Moisture, a lotion containing natural silk essence that makes your skin feel silky smooth while the thick texture provides rich hydration.

A new product released in Spring 2016, this multi-functional gel improves skin concerns (such as moisture, skin texture, roughness, radiance and firmness) and is a good follow-up after using Sekkisei's lotion. Though this is a new product, it has already become very popular and is available (like many of these other products) at major drugstores throughout the country.
