New Year New Skin New You

A Happy New Year!

Review your skincare routine and get healthier skin in the new year.


Step 1 Cleansing -Do you cleanse your skin properly, and every night?
1-1 Removing Makeup
For the skin suffering from severe dryness during winter, try RMK Cleansing Balm that effectively removes waterproof makeup with natural oil compounds that richly moisturise the skin at the same time. Recommended in magazines, blogs etc. such as Look Magazine.

Foundation doesn’t go on your skin smoothly? Concerned about dull looking skin? Cleansing Milk gently exfoliates old dead skin cells to smooth up the surface and soften the skin as well as removing makeup. Refreshing honey & lemon scent unwinds your mind and soul.

1-2 Facial Wash
After removing makeup, don’t forget to wash away any impurities and residues. Our facial cleansers turn into rich lather that gently cleanses the skin with botanical extracts. Choose Foamed Soap for dry skin that needs suppleness or Cream Soap for smoothing the skin surface and deeply cleansing the pores.

Step 2 Moisturiser
What is the first thing to give your thirsty skin after cleansing? Plenty of moisture. RMK Skintuner, light textured moisturiser instantly and deeply hydrates your skin.
Choose from 3 different types; Skintuner EX, Brightening and Smoother (click here for the whole range). For winter we recommend Skintuner EX. It specialises in supporting your skin’s own functions of producing Collagen & Hyaluronic Acid, helping the skin to be tougher and resistant against aging. It’s fresh and light weight so even dry, tired skin can easily absorb it, but its moisture powerfully stays within the skin.

Step 3 Essence/ Serum
Our special formula of light-weight and fast absorbing serum gives your skin visible improvement.

For rich moisture and firming: Firming Essence
Beauty serum with active botanical ingredients such as Japanese Rice Bran extract bring luxury moisture & resiliency, conditioning skin ridges for smooth and supple skin.
image
For brightening: Extra Brightening
Refreshing and soothing serum that stops the cause of black melanin while bringing your skin’s natural brightness out with 13 active ingredients. Recommended all year around, not only summer.
image
Step 4 Cream
Concentrate Cream is a special cream that soothes and unwinds your stressed skin. It maximises all the goodness from Step 1 to 3 with its perfect moisturising process “Give, Circulate & Hold” while strengthening the skin’s national functions. It gives a moisture barrier for protecting the skin and promoting its regeneration all day & night.

Get ready for your Christmas parties

Make this holiday season very special with the limited edition Christmas Palette from RMK.

We created 4 eyeshadow shades and 2 blush shades with a silver blusher base that evens the surface of your skin. The gorgeous palette comes with the feminine happy-pink lipstick and our bestselling Separate Curl Mascara in portable size.

Everything in the palette is made with RMK’s unique and advanced formulation, especially for you to maximise your beauty in the festive season. The kit is designed to complete two Christmassy looks (See our official site for full info!) although you can be creative by playing around with the colours. Here’s the instructions for one of the looks we recommend.

The look: Sultry purple gaze & sexy brown blush

Apply the purple shade on the eyelid edges and spread it to the eye socket. Add the pale purple shimmer under the eyebrow ridge. Complete the sultry eyes with Separate Curl Mascara.  

Make your eyes even more impactful with RMK Ingenious Pencil Eyeliner 03 Deep Blue, perfect for evening parties.

Apply the Silver base on the cheek bones then spread outwards all over the cheeks. Brush the Brown shade on top of the base. For a sexy glamorous look, brush diagonally, following the curves of your cheek up.

Finish off the look with the pink lipstick. Now you are ready for the Christmas party!

All these items used in this look are contained within our Christmas special funky leopard print tote bag.

Gravity Defying Essence

New beauty essence from RMK features secrets of the Orient that have been around for hundreds of years.

Rice bran, naturally rich in vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, has long been used in various ways by Japanese people from beauty and health to cooking.

For example, Nukazuke, rice bran pickling is a technique of pickling vegetables by fermenting them in a rice bran bed. Absorbing vitamins and minerals from rice bran, vegetables become delicious and nutritious pickles. They are traditionally an important part of a Japanese healthy diet.

Oil extracted from rice bran is also widely used as a natural emollient in Japan. Its type of oil is easily absorbed into the skin, nourishing and protecting it from dehydration. Gamma Oryzanol in the oil is an amazing antioxidant that fights against aging.

Another feature ingredient in Firming Essence is White Tea Extract. White tea is one of the rarest, most exclusive and superior blends of Chinese tea. It is rich in vitamins and especially polyphenol- it’s actually twice as powerful as an antioxidant than Green tea.

Besides these, our beauty serum contains ingredients from mango, apple and other lovely edible sources (to see all the active ingredients click here)

Firming Essence makes your skincare time fun and relaxing. Experience the syrupy nourishing texture that’s easily absorbed deep into your skin, making it plump and taught. Try the aroma therapeutic effects of the French Breakfast Tea scent that we carefully selected to help you unwind.

If your skin feels unusually dry, lacking suppleness or simply not as good as it used to be, it can be because of the change of the weather or a sign of aging. Either way it is desperate for something that really works. With our latest essence your skin will get tougher against the cold winter, while restoring its natural plumpness and resiliency.
