Japanese Sake Brewing Skin Care Essence - 5.07 oz

Immerse your skin in the centuries-old wisdom of Japanese fermentation with the Kiku-Masamune Japanese Sake Brewing Skin Care Essence. Crafted by a legendary brewery founded in 1659, this luxurious serum features high-quality Junmai Ginjo sake, which is naturally rich in Kojic Acid and a robust profile of rice-derived nutrients. Unlike standard hydrating serums, this "Sake Essence" is a nutrient-dense powerhouse designed to rescue dull, tired skin by flooding it with twelve distinct types of amino acids that mirror the skin's natural moisturizing factors. Its lightweight, watery texture belies its intensive strength, absorbing almost instantly to leave behind a supple, "mochi-like" finish without a trace of stickiness.

The formula is a masterclass in brightening and barrier repair, combining a high 5% concentration of Niacinamide with three types of Ceramides (EOP, NP, AP) and three stabilized Vitamin C derivatives. This potent blend works to reinforce your skin’s structural integrity while aggressively targeting hyperpigmentation and rough texture. Added arbutin and placenta extract further enhance the whitening effect, helping to fade stubborn dark spots and restore a translucent, "glass-skin" glow. Every drop provides a concentrated "burst" of moisture that penetrates deep into the stratum corneum, making it an ideal choice for those battling signs of aging or chronic dehydration.

True to the Kiku-Masamune heritage, this essence maintains a weakly acidic pH to respect the scalp and skin's natural delicate balance. It is formulated without mineral oils or artificial colorants, ensuring that the star of the show remains the pure, fermented rice liquid that has made this brand a cult favorite in J-Beauty circles. While primarily a face serum, its generous size and easy-pump bottle encourage use on the neck, décolletage, and any area craving a firming, brightening reset. Each application delivers a subtle, refreshing scent of sweet sake that dissipates quickly, leaving your complexion feeling hydrated, plump, and undeniably revitalized.

Heritage Fermentation Power: Infused with real Junmai Ginjo sake, this essence provides a high concentration of amino acids and kojic acid to deeply hydrate and brighten skin from within. The fermentation process breaks down molecules for superior absorption, ensuring active nutrients reach deeper skin layers effectively.

High-Potency Brightening Complex: A robust 5% Niacinamide concentration is paired with three Vitamin C derivatives and Arbutin to visibly even out skin tone and reduce the look of dullness. This multi-layered approach targets melanin production to reveal a more radiant, translucent complexion over time.

Triple Ceramide Barrier Support: Formulated with Ceramides EOP, NP, and AP, it works to fortify the skin's moisture barrier and protect against environmental stressors. These essential lipids lock in hydration, helping to smooth rough textures and improve overall skin elasticity.

Intensive Amino Acid Boost: Contains 12 rice-derived amino acids including Arginine, Glutamic Acid, and Serine that mimic the skin’s natural moisturizing factors for long-lasting suppleness. This dense nutrient profile ensures the skin stays plump and bouncy throughout the day without feeling heavy.

Clean & Gentle Formulation: The weakly acidic formula is free from mineral oil and artificial colorants, making it suitable for all skin types including sensitive and acne-prone. Its non-greasy, non-sticky finish provides a refreshing sensory experience that layers perfectly under makeup or heavier creams.
