SHISEIDO SPECIAL

What’s the difference between a complexion that looks youthful and one that doesn’t? Skin immunity. This is what keeps your skin protected from bacteria, pollution and UV rays, so that you can have a smooth, supple and radiant complexion as opposed to one prone to acne, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and inflammation.
Unfortunately, as we age, our skin’s immunity weakens.
The perfect solution: Shiseido’s Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate. This one-of-a-kind product promises to amp up the skin’s resilience so that it can become strong and beautiful once again.
THE POWER OF A PLANT
The product contains extracts of ginkgo biloba leaf. A symbol of vitality, the ginkgo biloba tree thrives in harsh conditions, with some specimens reportedly living for more than 1,000 years. In the Concentrate, the extracts serve as an antioxidant that protects skin against internal and external aggressors so that it appears healthy and youthful.
SOOTHES SKIN
The product also has a potent cocktail of anti-inflammatory and antibacterial ingredients like wild thyme and perilla extract to calm irritation and redness, so your skin won’t look patchy or angry so easily.
PLUMPS UP SKIN
Hydrating ingredients like Bulgarian rose water lock in moisture to soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. According to Shiseido, it takes 250 handpicked roses to produce just 1kg of the precious rose water. With continued use of the Concentrate, skin looks softer, smoother and more hydrated.
MOOD-BOOSTING SCENT
A mix of relaxing bergamot and stimulating ginger, pink pepper and cardamom, the product’s green floral scent is designed to soothe you when you’re frazzled, and perk you up when you’re lethargic. When you have a calmer mind, your skin will be less “stressed” and look its best.
DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE EYES
The eye area is the most delicate part of your face, and it’s susceptible to weakened immunity when exposed to harsh elements. Shiseido Ultimune Eye Power Infusing Eye Concentrate is the perfect companion to the face concentrate and is formulated especially for the delicate eye area. It helps to smooth wrinkles and fine lines and also brightens up dark circles so you look well rested.
