In 1986, renowned Japanese actress Ai Saotome was desperate to overcome her stressed skin. With hours spent in heavy makeup and under sweltering lights, Ai's complexion was depleted and lacked the fresh glow she craved.
Inspired by her need and the deeply rooted skincare rituals of her country, Ai set out to create a line of pure and healthy skincare that would deliver radiant skin on and off screen. Enter: Koh Gen Do.
Born in Tokyo and raised on movie sets around the world, Koh Gen Do fuses the planet's most precious botanicals with Japanese skincare technology in order to create formulas that nourish, protect and revive a natural complexion.
Since launching over 30 years ago, Koh Gen Do has become a firm favorite among professional makeup artists and can often be found on the sets of blockbuster movies – because healthy, dewy skin that's enriched with natural essences looks as fresh on camera as it does in real life.
Browse the full Koh Gen Do collection and discover the iconic, gentle formulations that repair, refresh and illuminate skin.
