The Birth of a New Skincare Revolution!!!
On April 1, 2026, POLA Inc., headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, will launch their new body serum, the "From Loss To Beauty Clear Body Smoothie." This product is part of the brand’s unique philosophy: transforming unused resources into beauty. By utilizing the underappreciated resources of the "Michinoku Himeyuri" lily, which is sadly endangered, this innovative serum aims to set a new standard in the beauty industry.
The Power of the Michinoku Himeyuri
The Michinoku Himeyuri lily, recognized as the village flower of Sakakawa village in Yamagata Prefecture, is critically endangered. To ensure the survival of this beautiful flower, local high school students from Shinjo Kamuro Industrial High School are cultivating these bulbs. During this cultivation process, some leaves, known as 'young leaves', are discarded as waste. Noticing the potential in these discarded leaves, POLA decided to focus on turning them into a valuable resource for skincare.
By collaborating with the local educational authorities and Yamagata University for research and development, POLA has extracted the essence of these young leaves to create the proprietary Michinoku Himeyuri extract. Combined with twelve other active beauty ingredients, this serum aims to deliver visible results for skin dullness, roughness, and dryness, especially concerning during the warmer months when skin is often exposed.
Key Features of the Serum
1. Nurturing Ingredients
The Clear Body Smoothie is infused with POLA's original hydrating ingredient, Michinoku Himeyuri extract, along with twelve carefully selected beauty components. This unique blend works together to revitalize and moisturize the skin effectively.
2. Quick Absorption Formulation
Designed for comfort in the summer heat, the serum boasts a non-sticky, fast-absorbing formula that seamlessly melts into the skin. Users will appreciate the refreshing experience it offers without an oily residue after application.
3. Smooth and Refreshing Texture
