Tomoz and Rohto Pharmaceuticals Join Forces for UV Care Station

In a groundbreaking collaboration, Tomoz Co., Ltd., a prominent drugstore chain based in Bunkyo, Tokyo, is teaming up with Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., headquartered in Osaka, to roll out the UV Care Station. This innovative concept is aimed at encouraging consumers to integrate sunscreen application into their daily skincare routines. The official launch date is set for April 24, 2026, and the station will debut at select Tomoz locations.

What is the UV Care Station?

The UV Care Station is designed to create an engaging shopping experience focused on UV care products. Here’s what customers can expect:

1. Product Testing on the Spot
Consumers will have the opportunity to try out various UV care products right at the station. They can compare textures, finishes, and fragrances, making it easier to choose products that best suit their skin type and lifestyle.

2. UV Camera-Equipped Mirrors
Another unique feature of the UV Care Station will be mirrors equipped with a UV camera. This technology will allow individuals to check for uneven application of sunscreen. By visualizing how well a sunscreen is applied, customers can learn about the correct amount and application techniques, highlighting the importance of reapplying sunscreen throughout the day.

Background for the UV Care Station Initiative

Despite the growing awareness surrounding the importance of UV protection, many consumers still express uncertainty when it comes to choosing the right products. Common concerns include not knowing which product to select, being unsure if they are using enough sunscreen, and finding it challenging to reapply sunscreen over makeup. These issues highlight the fact that an effective UV care routine has yet to take hold among the general public.

Tomoz aims to emphasize in-store experiences as a drugstore that provides value in both healthcare and beauty care. On the other hand, Rohto Pharmaceuticals has been advocating for the integration of sunscreen into daily skincare routines. By combining both companies' strengths, the UV Care Station will create an environment where consumers can truly try, confirm, and confidently choose their UV care products.

Moving ahead, Tomoz is committed to supporting every customer in leading a healthy and comfortable life.
