Delivering high levels of technology and safety to our customers

“LPLP” is a long-selling hair care brand initially launched in 2011. The key ingredient in LPLP, “Fucoidan,” is extracted from the rare “Gagome Kelp,” harvested only in the coastal waters near Hakodate, Hokkaido. Renowned for its exceptional hair-nurturing and moisturizing properties, this ingredient is incorporated into all LPLP products in the form of the proprietary “LPLP W-Fucoidan.” This double-moisturizing approach, developed collaboratively by Shionogi Healthcare and Starge, features both high-molecular and low-molecular Fucoidan to promote healthy, vibrant hair.
“NINESENSE” evolved in 2022 from the cutting-edge botanical-based skincare line “PHYTOLIFT”, which has been addressing various skin concerns since its launch in 2012. With the concept of “Cutting-Edge Botanicals x Performance,” NINESENSE incorporates three advanced 3D beauty ingredients and three major plant extracts to provide robust, effective skincare that is gentle yet potent. This innovative skincare line delivers unprecedented radiance and resilience for luminous, youthful-looking skin.

Beautiful hair is only possible with a healthy scalp. It is essential to care for your scalp as you care for your skin. LPLP was born from such a skin care concept. This hair care series takes a practical approach to condition the aging scalp and nurturing beautiful hair from the roots up.

For those who seek gentle yet effective skincare, “PHYTOLIFT” has long delivered results by addressing their needs and concerns. In 2022, it evolved further into “NINESENSE,” incorporating nine unique “senses of plants.” Inspired by the refined sensory mechanisms that botanical secrets have developed to adapt to their environments, NINESENSE helps fortify the skin to resist external stressors and unveils your true beauty.
