The Shiseido History
Originating in Tokyo, the forward-thinking brand launched the country’s first ever western-style pharmacy back in 1872. Founded by chief pharmacist, Arinobu Fukuhara, whose motivation for the brand came from his displeasure with the medicine available on the market at the time. At just 23-years-old his ethos was “to take everything and anything good in this world and use it to create new things.”

Invented by Shiseido: Fukuhara Sanitary Toothpaste
Forever at the forefront of the cosmetic industry, in 1988, the brand created and launched Japan’s first ever toothpaste. Before the invention, toothpaste in the country came in a powder form, which damaged teeth due to its rough grains, whereas Shiseido’s invention had a smooth texture that was scientifically proven to dissolve tartar and bad breath! And the brand has remained at the forefront of the cosmetic industry ever since.

The Shiseido Philosophy

Shisiedo, Bio-Performance LiftDynamic Serum
Shiseido believe that beauty is more than skin deep. The brand’s website advocates that “beauty is not an image, it’s a feeling and when it is shared, we imagine a world that is, quite simply put, better.” This sensual philosophy is a message which is echoed throughout all of the brands products, as they aim to target the skin’s cells as well as shielding it from ageing, environmental aggressors and emotional stress. Providing an ‘all round’ package which aims to please each individual sense.
