Shiseido Cosmetics
is what we have when two cultures interact, cultures that are to contradicting
and different in values. As an ideal tandem, the Japanese philosophy and innovative
technologies from the West Europe built the
extraordinary unique product for the sake of beauty and health of women. Only
new approaches are applied by this company, though all is verified and
effective. From year to year the cosmetics by this company get down-to-earth
all over the world.
Shiseido
Company was founded in 1872 in Japan
by Fukuhara Arinobu, the pharmaceutist of the Japanese Imperial Navy,
with the
soonest merge of the network of drugstores. He introduced the new
product to
the market, that is the innovative foundation cream «Eudermine». Long
before the
Japanese women used off-white ceruse based on lead which resulted in
intoxicated and aged skin. In 1888 Fukuhara Arinobu launched the first
Japanesetoothpaste when such products were imported for longer time or
just the did without it. And when «Eudermine» was introduced in 1897,
the
Company showed the signs of swift and victorious development. In 1916
the first
specialized cosmetic store was opened whereas before the cosmetic
products were
traded exclusively through the net of drugstores and in 1918 the first
Shiseido
perfume was offered.
The Company
was named using the phrase from the Japanese work to translate as «praise the
merits of the earth that cherishes new life to bring noteworthy values». Since
the Japanese script has too many meanings to rely on the intonation the phrases
are pronounced, the name Shiseido is soften understood as the house of
happiness and wishes of happiness.

Shiseido can boast with every single item to be innovative, like the new super
technology Advanced Luminous Technology based upon the feature of the human
skin to reflect or absorb the light beam. The Company launches the first

materials and innovative ideas from the West Europe.

Company where the professional micro-biologists, chemists and pharmaceutists
contribute to create the unique product for the sake of women. The new innovative
gloss Hydro-Powder Eye Shadow was invented which is so perfect to apply on lips,
eye lids and the skin to endure the temperature to 35° Celcium and hyper-moisture. The Perfecting
