History

Hada Labo was launched in 2004, and sought to emphasize a more "simplistic" skin care approach by removing "unnecessary additives, colorant, fragrance and mineral oil".[3]

In 2005, the brand changed their packaging from glass to plastic bottles and began offering their products in refill pouch variations.[2] In 2015, Hada Labo Tokyo became the first Japanese cosmetics brand to launch at U.S. mass retailers. Six products from the brands lineup are to be distributed across the Northeastern and Florida markets in 235 Harmon locations.[7] In November 2019, Hada Labo revised all the packaging from their Gokujyun and Shirojyun lines to be made from plant-derived materials.[2]

Hada Labo is composed of three main lines:[8]

  • Gokujyun (極潤), focused on "intense" hydration
  • Shirojyun (白潤), with added brightening properties
  • Gokujyun Alpha (極潤α), with added anti-aging benefits

Their lotion products are a popular variant, a type of toner-adjacent skin conditioner unique to Japanese beauty.[9][10]
