Sake for Beauty

Sake is a delicious 2000-year-old craft, but it’s not only for drinking!

Did you know that Sake has been used for centuries for beauty care in Japan?

Sake is incredibly hydrating and nourishing, beaming with amino acids and peptides, known for its naturally beautifying properties.

The fermentation magic of rice turning into Sake, and a special enzyme called Koji, are the secret where the magic is. Learn more below.

100% Natural Ingredients Only

  • Premium Sake

    Sake is incredibly hydrating and nourishing, beaming with amino acids, antioxidants, peptides, and many more goodies, known for its naturally beautifying properties. Just to name a few, ferulic acid contained in Sake is known to naturally strengthen skin elasticity. All those antioxidants in Sake protects you from environmental aggressors of air pollution and sun exposure. The fermentation magic of rice turning into Sake, and a special enzyme called Koji (‘Kojic Acid’), are the secret of Sake’s fabulous brightening effects. Just so much goodness, overall!

  • Kokum Butter

    Secret moisturizing Superstar! You may not have heard of this edible superstar yet, as it is relatively more expensive than other similar plant-derived butters, and not as used as Shea Butter or alternatives. It’s an oil harvested from the seeds of a fruit-bearing tree called the kokum tree. Garcinia indica is its scientific name. It is known for its smooth skin absorption without clogging pores, and its soothing properties for acne and inflamed skin. (Photo source: Healthline)

  • Candelilla Wax

    A nourishing Vegan alternative to the commonly used beeswax! Candelilla Wax is hypoallergenic, Vitamin A-rich for healthy cell regeneration, great for soothing frown wrinkles. Incredibly moisturizing for dry skin, yet, it is non-comedogenic, which means, it won’t clog pores. Candelilla Wax also acts as a protective barrier between your skin and the harsh environment.

    Candelilla Wax comes from a lovely shrub called Candelilla, native to Mexico and the US. Its scientific name is Euphorbia Cerifera Cera. (Photo Source: Kew Gardens)

  • Lavender Oil

    Ou la la! The aroma of lavender lifts the spirit! Beaming with antioxidants, Lavender oil helps you protect from the free radicals that are partly responsible for unnecessary frown wrinkles. Lavender oil is also known for its antibacterial and soothing skin powers, showing it could speed up skin repairs after cuts, wounds, and scarring. Great for healthy hair growth too!

  • Coconut Oil

    Another moisturizing rockstar, known for its super powers to kick out ‘bad’ bacteria, thanks to its antimicrobial powers from the naturally present lauric and capric acids. Known to heal dry and cracked skin. Oh, so moisturizing, nourishing, soothing!

  • Vitamin E Oil

    Nature’s preservative! Antioxidant, soothing, moisturizing. Known to heal wounds, sooth skin, and help prevent unnecessary wrinkles. Also great for dark circles under the eyes!

    Did you know that there are 2 types of Vitamin E Oils? One is naturally derived, and the other is synthetic. We obviously use the natural one! (You’ll know when you see the label if it reads ‘D Alpha Tocopherol’)

Our mission is to nourish you with the fermentation magic of Sake, while supporting the precious 2000-year-old craft.

Lovely to meet you! I'm a United Nations Official turned Entrepreneur, on a mission to share the beauty of Japanese Sake, in support of our precious 2000-year-old craft.

Did you know that this beautiful craft is in a decline in Japan right now? It's hard to imagine now, but I never liked Sake before. But 'discovering' the beauty of Sake by coincidence changed the course of my life...!  I went from United Nations to Sake. I know it’s a rather unusual career change!

As I learned about the current realities of Sake in my ancestral town of Nagano (a major historical Sake production area) that our precious craft is in a serious decline, I wanted to do something. Hence, my mission above!

Sake is an incredibly delicious craft, but it’s not only for drinking! There’s so much more to Sake. Sake is such a nourishing and beautifying ingredient too, as my late grandmother in Nagano used to tell us.

I’ve been making my own natural selfcare product since 2014 for myself and for my family. I realized sharing my Sake Balm would be another fabulous way to share Sake Love with the world!

That’s me upcycling homebrewed Sake lees as face mask!
