Cosmetics Inspired by Japan's Iconic Flower, "Sakura"
Sakura is a symbolic spring flower in Japan, representing "hope," "the warmth of spring that ends the cold winter," and "the beginning of a new life." It is deeply loved by the Japanese people.The pale pink flowers are elegant and beautiful, but their fleeting nature, as they start to fall within about a week of full bloom, also evokes a sense of ephemerality.People celebrate the arrival of spring by enjoying meals while viewing sakura in parks and other locations, an activity known as "hanami" (flower viewing).Perhaps you have also visited Japan to admire the beautiful sakura?
In Japan, various new products themed around sakura (cherry blossoms) are released every year. This time, we are focusing on cosmetic brand products.Among them, there are sakura-designed limited-edition cosmetics that can only be purchased in Japan. Not only are they vibrant in color and delightful in fragrance, but their beautiful sakura designs also captivate many people.Purchasing them in Japan allows you to not only get these limited-edition items early but sometimes at a more affordable price.
