10 Popular Japanese Beauty Brands You Can Shop In Singapore

THREE

THREE is another Japanese beauty brand that's worth your attention. Available in TANGS and Takashimaya, this brand promises a science-backed approach to skincare rooted in many Japanese traditional practices. P.S. We're totally obsessed with the minimalist packaging!

Lunasol

You don't need to visit Japan's many beauty aisles to take home this brand's gorgeous makeup selection. Mostly known for its array of eyeshadow palettes and face products, Lunasol definitely inspires excitement in creating any type of beauty look through products that boast pigment, blendability, and longevity. Shop its products in all major beauty counters in Singapore and see for yourself.

Jill Stuart

If you love Japan's kawaii (cute) culture, Jill Stuart will definitely fix you up. It gives you a dose of daintiness 10 times over with its stunning packaging and J-beauty-focused take on makeup — that's natural and youthful. Shop the brand through Sephora Singapore. But first, check out our review of several products from the brand here.

KENZOKI

Kenzoki skincare line is the beauty arm of the fashion brand KENZO. It has an exquisite line of products that mixes Eastern and Western ingredients and technology to create the most innovative releases. Plus, that pristine-looking packaging? Swoon! Pick your favourites at Sephora Singapore. 

ANESSA

Japanese sunscreens are on a different level simply because Japan takes sun protection seriously (as we all should). What better way to follow this practice than by incorporating a known Japanese suncare brand into our routines just like Anessa? This J-beauty brand is known for its sensitive skin-compatible formula and high-quality feel and performance. Find Anessa in any Watsons outlet islandwide or through Watsons' official website. 

SK-II

We can't talk about J-beauty without mentioning the cult-favourite brand SK-II. Despite its luxurious price point, this Japanese brand is loved in Singapore simply because it delivers in performance and efficacy. Located in five stores within +65, SK-II products including the bestselling Facial Treatment Essence can easily be a part of your routine, no immigration checks required.  

Kose Cosmeport

Kose Cosmeport is one J-beauty brand that dominates most Japanese drugstores and beauty outlets thanks to its wide range of product lines, fit for different budgets. In Singapore, this brand's skincare and bodycare products are available at Watsons. 

FANCL

FANCL is another Japanese beauty brand available in Singapore that you should not skip out on. Many travellers used to go to Japan to take home the brand's bestselling Mild Cleansing Oil and Facial Cleansing Powder but luckily for Singaporeans, six FANCL branches exist in the country.
