Cool Yourself This Summer With SHISEIDO’s Ultimune Mist

25.May.2020 | FASHION

SHISEIDO is launching a new limited edition collection of its Ultimune™ Defense Refresh Mist worldwide on July 1, 2020.

SHISEIDO Ultimune™ Defense Refresh Mist – ¥7,200 (Before Tax)

The product takes inspiration from the Japanese custom of uchimizu in which people sprinkle water onto the pavements, in their gardens, and elsewhere to cool down the immediate area. The micro mist helps to keep you feeling cool and refreshed to combat the stickiness of the heat as well as the dryness caused by UV rays. It also helps protect the skin. The product is bottled in a small bottle for easy carrying around so you can whip it out at any time for some quick skincare action.


The bottle features a limited edition design which reads ‘Ginza,’ the place in Tokyo where SHISEIDO started. Essence and a cushioned compact case are also being released with the same limited edition design.

    “Shiseido makes so many of the products I use in my daily life, so when I was invited to collaborate on this new campaign, I didn’t even have to think about it. Partnering with such a great company means a lot to me. I deeply believe in the individual power of every human being, and I think that anyone has the power to change the world. “POWER IS YOU” represents the power each of us has to alter the world for the better, which is something that resonates with me personally. I want young people especially to know that it is possible to change things. I hope they do, and I hope that this campaign helps to inspire more people to feel the same.”      Conceptual Videeo
      The song used for the campaign is Utada Hikaru’s Find Love. The singer also appears in the video as an ambassador.

Courage is beautiful.”    Finally, Ursula Corbero, who gained international fame for her role in the Netflix series Paper House, appears as the final ambassador.
