This relaunch emphasized Shiseido&rsquo;s commitment to premium, high-quality ingredients and luxurious formulations.
In 2017, the line expanded further with the concept "Treasure the life in your skin," offering a comprehensive range that nurtures daily beauty. This collection reflected Shiseido's unique Japanese sensibility and continued to integrate exclusive anti-aging technology to enhance the skin&rsquo;s natural vitality.
The latest evolution in 2024 introduces Future Solution LX as Shiseido&rsquo;s first "conscious luxury" skincare line, incorporating traditional Japanese cultural elements while appealing to all five sense, including the addition of the LonGenevity Complex&trade; and the ENMEI herb.
