More about the Brand Owner

角昌司

MASASHI SUMI

He founded a beauty salon in his hometown of Takarazuka and has 13 stores in Takarazuka City. Mars International, the parent company of the company, was born in 1995, the year of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake. In Takarazuka, which became a disaster-stricken area, he started a business with the idea of "Let's revitalize this city!" Since then, as a community-based hairdressing salon, she has been working with local customers and pursuing themes related to "beauty and health" and her desire to revitalize the community, so she has launched the "Chikara Nature" brand using local Takarazuka materials, and is taking on the challenge of developing sustainable products using buried and discarded natural materials.

Through beauty and health, we want to create a recycling-oriented society originating locally.

Through my experience of providing beauty to customers as a beauty salon owner, I realized that "true beauty" is "health and mental well-being" rather than appearance, and that "health and mental well-being" is "living a prosperous life without effort" and without waste.

When I looked at my hometown of Takarazuka, I found that there were many things that had been discarded and buried without being looked at. We launched the "Bring Nature to the Heart" brand to review them and start the challenge of recycling and reusing them in nature through new ways of using them. We aim to contribute to the local community through beauty and health.

What are we doing?

Bringing natural materials that were destined to be discarded back to people

We recycle the sake lees left over from the Japan sake manufacturing process and the wood that is destined to be cut down and discarded, give it a new mission, and circulate it back to people. In order to make materials that would otherwise be discarded into products that can be used with peace of mind, we are focusing on our own research and development.

For example, the sake lees powder used in the "SAKEKASU+" series of products had a great deal of trouble turning it into a white powder. The local sake "Otome no Mai", which is the raw material, is made by the old-fashioned method of "hand-squeezing" among Daiginjo sake, and has the property that it is very moist and very difficult to dry.

At first, it didn't dry well and turned into caramel, so I made a lot of mistakes. Therefore, as a result of visiting the sake brewery many times and consulting with them, and as a result of trial and error in the process, we arrived at a method of slowly drying the ingredients at low temperatures over time, crushing them, and turning them into powder. While working as a hairdresser in my day job, I developed my own method of powdering while trying and failing night after night, covering my house with sticky saccharified sake lees.

Commitment to the product

We are particular about natural materials and are working to create products that make use of the original power of nature. Taking advantage of the effects of natural ingredients such as sake lees, rice bran, and camphor trees, we have developed products that are easy to incorporate into daily life. All products are made from materials from Takarazuka, Hyogo Prefecture, the owner's hometown.

"Additive-free facial cleansing made from sake lees and rice bran"

It is a completely additive-free facial cleansing cleansing that contains only rice bran, wheat bran (wheat bran) and sake lees. Enzymes of beneficial microorganisms wash with higher cleaning power than ordinary synthetic surfactant cleansing. You can wash your face and remove makeup at the same time, and your skin will be moisturized. It is also recommended for people with sensitive skin. We reuse the sake lees produced in the manufacturing process of the local sake "Otome no Mai", which is made with the sake rice "Yamada Nishiki" made in the Nishidani district of Takarazuka City.

【KUSURASHI】カンフルアロマチス

An air freshener made from 100-year-old high-quality camphor trees in the form of chips. It has an insect and odor repellent effect, so if you put it in a small plate or bag and leave it in the toilet or at the doorstep, the natural scent will spread.

The material used in the product is camphor wood, which has been rooted for more than 100 years on the site of the former Takarazuka Hotel and the current Takarazuka Hotel construction site. Originally, it was planned to be cut down due to development and other circumstances, but the owner negotiated with the hotel and the product because he did not want to waste the large tree that had been watching over the city of Takarazuka and the opera for a long time.

Who are supporting us?

We are pleased with those who want safe and secure products that do not use synthetic preservatives or surfactants, as well as those who are sensitive to products made from natural materials. Currently, it is mainly sold at the official online shop, and at physical stores, it is also available at beauty salons (Mars) and nail salons (Collette) operated by Mars international, Takarazuka Culture and Arts Center, and in 2021, it was also opened at Kobe Marui and Takarazuka Hankyu Department Store event booths.
