Bamboo Water Face Serum
A face serum centered around rare bamboo water, harvested only during a brief period in May when bamboo is at its most vibrant. It delivers fresh hydration, helps protect the skin from dryness and refines its texture, leaving it smooth, firm and luminous. Lightweight and easy to layer into your daily routine. Natural Origin Index: 100% (including water / ISO 16128 compliant).
Material
Bamboo water is drawn up from the earth through the plant’s underground stems and stored within its culms during the spring growing season. It can be collected only during a brief period each year. For approximately two weeks in May, kiiks gathers it one culm at a time with the local community in Kuwana, Mie, then freezes it immediately and transports it to our factory in Kagoshima. Using bamboo as a resource is also part of caring for the grove and protecting the surrounding forest. At the heart of this serum is bamboo water, blended with kuromoji aromatic water and botanical ingredients derived from lemon balm, rosemary, aloe, juniper and fennel. Gathered through the meeting of season, place and human hands, the bamboo water is transformed into a fresh, lightweight serum for everyday use.
