LUX Launches 'Super Rich Shine' with an Engaging TikTok Challenge
Unilever Japan's total beauty care brand, LUX, is celebrating the
10th anniversary of its "Super Rich Shine Series" by unveiling a major reformulation and a unique TikTok initiative called #LUXPronunciationChallenge, starting from
September 8, 2025. This creative endeavor invites participants to tackle the pronunciation of “L” and “R”, commonly perceived as difficult sounds. Users can showcase their skills by correctly pronouncing “LUX Super Rich Shine,” making it a fun audio game challenge.
To kick things off, an instructional video featuring the renowned voice actor
Yuki Kaji has been released. His charming voice narrates the challenge while demonstrating the pronunciation techniques. Kaji shares the stage with popular influencers like
Kemio,
Naenano, and
StudyIn Native English Conversation, each bringing their flair to this entertaining challenge.
The Exciting Reformulation
The re-launch is significant; nearly a decade after its initial introduction, LUX’s entire product line—shampoo, conditioner, and treatment—will receive new formulations promising to transform hair into silky, radiant “silk-like” strands. With this, the brand emphasizes not only its commitment to beauty but also its awareness of evolving consumer needs in hair care.
The #LUXPronunciationChallenge provides a way for the community to engage and have fun while exploring pronunciation skills. Participants will have the chance to win new products from the Super Rich Shine range by submitting their challenge videos on the TikTok platform.
