The Japan Beauty Week (#JapanBeautyweek) is back for the fourth time. Organised by the Japan Cosmetic Industry Association (JCIA), supported by the Japanese Embassy, the event took place at the residence of the Japanese Ambassador, H.E. Dr. Makio Miyagawa.
Japan is undoubtedly the leader when it comes to the beauty and personal care scene, with the highest per capital spending and sales figures on these products.
“It is a well-known fact that the Japanese beauty industry has a long tradition of respect for nature and the arts to master the secret of technological innovations. This is why Japanese products are widely acknowledged as the most advanced,” said Mr. Tetsuya Kambe from JCIA.
Several leading Japanese cosmetic brands displayed their latest products and provided beauty consultations at the event, including Kanebo Cosmetics Malaysia Sdn Bhd, Kao (M) Sdn Bhd, KOSE (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, Nippon Menard (M) Sdn Bhd, Shiseido Malaysia Sdn Bhd and Sunstar Singapore Pte Ltd.
There was also a special appearance by Ms. Akari Makamuta, a 25-year-old famed Japanese TV personality.
