The Power of Placenta in Japanese Skincare
It might surprise some, but placenta has been used in traditional Japanese medicine for centuries and is believed to have numerous benefits for the skin. It’s only those ingredients that are rooted in tradition yet still feel ahead of their time—something only J-beauty seems to pull off so effortlessly.
Placenta extract is naturally rich in amino acids, peptides, vitamins, and growth factors—all the nutrients our skin craves to repair, renew and glow from within. It is known for its ability to hydrate and nourish the skin, leading to a more radiant and youthful complexion. Placenta also helps to improve skin’s elasticity and firmness, making it an excellent ingredient for age management skincare products. In addition to its hydrating and age management properties, placenta is also believed to have brightening effects. It can help even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
In true Japanese fashion, these formulations are expertly refined—often odorless, lightweight, and beautifully minimal. No heavy texture, no frills. Just clean, effective skincare.
