Lux and Kuromi Join Forces for a Dazzling Collaboration
In an exciting announcement, Unilever Japan's hair care brand LUX has teamed up with Sanrio's popular character Kuromi to create a superb limited-edition product line titled "Let's Shine Together with Kuromi." Set to launch on June 29, 2026, this collaboration features 11 exclusive items, including the newly introduced sulfate-free LUX Super Rich Crystal Moisture & Repair Shampoo and a variety of treatments and conditioners, all dressed in stunning Kuromi packaging.
Celebrating Individual Brilliance
LUX has long been seen as a brand that understands and caters to the unique shine possessed by each woman. The 2026 campaign, under the tagline "Shine Invincibly," reflects their commitment to helping women embrace their individuality without worrying about others' perceptions. The concept encourages women to be their true selves, enjoying their identities through their hair. This aligns seamlessly with Kuromi's mantra encouraging everyone to strive for their ideal selves, as part of her ongoing "#WorldKuromiTransformation" initiative launched in 2021.
Both LUX and Kuromi aim to inspire others to believe in themselves and radiate positivity. This collaboration not only merges their dreams but also aims to create a unique experience for consumers, encouraging them to embrace their inner strength and celebrate their individuality through every wash.
