The 400 years of history of the Yanagiya Honten is the history of plant-derived cosmetics. Parts of it are introduced here.

Edo Period

Rouges, face powders, fragrance oils

We have sold various cosmetics with excellent formulae, including rouges made of safflower, and they were loved by ladies from the inner palace of the Edo castle and the imperial court in Kyoto.

"Ryuseikou" Hair Oil

A hair oil for conditioning Japanese style hair. Made from an original recipe by soaking in fragrant wood and musk, it gained great popularity due to the lovely scent.

Meiji Period (1868 - 1912)

"Keishikou" Japanese Hair Oil

By using camellia oil as the raw material, in addition to its lovely fragrance, it was well received due to its effects that help with hair growth and unruly hair.

Heisei Perios

First-generation: YANAGIYA Apricot Oil

Launched YANAGIYA Apricot Oil in 2008. It was well received, especially by young women, because of its refreshing feel.

Reiwa Period (2019-)

YANAGIYA Apricot Oil

With the blessings of nature preserved, it has even a lighter feel of use. It has been reborn as a hair oil that can also be used for body care.
