Brand story

From Tokyo, for women who keep pursuing beauty

Japan Life Pharmaceutical (日本ライフ製薬, JLP for short) is a Japanese skincare company based in Nishi-Shinjuku, Tokyo. It describes itself as a brand for women who never stop pursuing beauty.

JLP wants to help each person get closer to the skin they have in mind while keeping irritation to a minimum. Three beliefs guide the way:

01
Cutting-edge technology
The latest technology is the starting point of every formula.
02
High-concentration formulas
Skincare ingredients are used at high concentrations.
03
Understanding skin first
Every product is designed from an understanding of the skin.

For JLP, skincare should be simple. Instead of complicated routines, everything starts with three easy steps, so that the skin's natural beauty can come back from within, without age or damage getting the upper hand.

Product lines

Three lines, three ways to care for skin

Basic · ベーシック

Awakening the skin's own strength

Basic is built on biology and dermatology research, to rebalance skin disturbed by lifestyle, age and stress. The routine takes three steps: a cleanser, a lotion, then a serum chosen for your skin concerns.

Worth knowing: NcPA (cyclic lysophosphatidic acid Na), a skin-conditioning ingredient characteristic of JLP.

Manier · マニール

A “method” for beautiful skin

Manier means “method” in German. This line is for skin that is starting to show signs of ageing. It is built on Nano Select AG technology and paired with natural essential-oil aromas that soothe both skin and mood.

Worth knowing: Nano Select AG: nano-sized Hybrid Rose flower extract and moisturizing ingredients.

Spiracorretta · スピラコレッタ

Making light an ally

Spiracorretta does not just try to avoid UV and blue light. It sees light as a source of strength. The line draws on Spirulina Maxima, the cyanobacterium that was the first on Earth to use light to live.

Worth knowing: Spiraco: Spirulina Maxima extract.

Where the ingredient comes from

From a volcanic lake on Lanzarote

The spirulina in Spiraco is collected by JLP from a volcanic lake on Lanzarote, one of the Canary Islands. It belongs to a group of blue-green microalgae that lived billions of years ago, when sunlight on Earth was far harsher.

That ability to live with light is what inspired the Spiracorretta line.
