Benefits of Shiseido WASO Skincare

Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

The belief behind the WASO line is that all things beautiful come from nature. Whenever I use any products from this line, the saying “you are what you eat” always comes to my mind. After all, skincare is food for your skin. Nourishment and essential top layer care. WASO is inspired by the holistic and natural Japanese food traditions of Washoku. Washoku means “Japanese eating”.

PIN THIS!

Washoku consists of rice, miso soup and side dishes like fish, pickled vegetables and vegetables cooked in broth. Are you hungry yet? The most common is seafood, which is either grilled or raw (sushi/sashimi).

Most of you know my deep love for Japan. Their cuisine, beauty products, and way of life, we’ve traveled to Japan three times and honestly, I can’t wait to go back for a fourth visit. I had the pleasure of meeting the marketing people behind Shiseido many times in my years of working in the beauty industry and I have to say they’re some of the most passionate people I’ve met. They genuinely love the products and know so much brand history.

WASO BEAUTY SMART WATER – WASO HYDRATING RICH CREAM

This beauty water is inspired by Amazake. Amazake is a traditional sweet, low alcohol Japanese drink made from fermented rice. This all in one cleansing water will Cleanse, Hydrate and Prime skin in just one step. The fermented complex makes for a textured water that gently polishes skin. Helps with removing dirt, any excess sebum, dead skin cell build up and any light make up you might be wearing.

The gentle 3-in-1 cleansing water retails for $40 at Shoppers Drug Mart.

WASO GIGA-HYDRATING RICH CREAM

waso giga hydrating rich cream

This super-rich cream was inspired by fermented soybeans that help to lock in moisture for 48-hours and even help prevent acne and breakouts! This cream has carrot cells, soybean extract and I love that it has a matte finish. There is some amazing science behind this product. If you use it over time it can actually lead to the strengthening of your skin’s barrier so that your skin creates a natural ability to retain moisture. Retails: $50

waso eye opening essence

A small drop of this goes a long way. Love the cool feeling of this eye gel that awakens dark circles. The skin brightening complex is a combination of vitamin C, E, carrot cells, ginger, and the colour correcting pearl gives you an instant boost of radiance perfect for an awakened day look. Retails: $32.00
