Ruhaku
Welcome to the world of RUHAKU, the pioneer of Japanese organic cosmetics that brings the essence of the island of longevity, Okinawa, to Italy. RUHAKU was born from the encounter between the ancient wisdom of Ryukyu and the ideal of bihaku, clear and elastic skin, to offer you a holistic beauty experience that reflects the authentic J-Beauty.
It is the first Japanese brand of Ecocert Greenlife certified organic cosmetics to arrive in Italy, quickly conquering organic skincare enthusiasts. It brings with it the effectiveness of local natural and organic ingredients, used for centuries in Japanese wellness rituals.
Origins and Philosophy
The name RUHAKU combines "Ryukyu" (the ancient name for Okinawa) and "Bihaku" (which means "clear and elastic skin" in Japanese), reflecting the brand's goal of providing even, soft, healthy and toned skin. Founded by Masahiro Sugita, who discovered the benefits of the Gettou plant during a trip to Okinawa, the brand was born out of a desire to create skincare products that would provide relief to his wife Yoko's stressed skin.
Key Ingredients
The RUHAKU line uses the extraordinary antioxidant properties of Gettou leaves (Alpinia Speciosa), an exclusive Okinawa plant with a polyphenol content thirty times higher than that of red wine. Gettou leaves are also known for their antiseptic, antibacterial and aromatic calming effects. Other precious ingredients include sea grapes, argan oil, sesame oil and rose hips, which together help improve the elasticity and firmness of the skin.
