Effect of α-EG
High collagen density in the scalp is essential for healthy hair growth

The scalp is the foundation for building and nurturing hair. Collagen helps maintain hair follicle stem cells, which are vital for producing the cells that grow your hair. Collagen enhances three functions: hair growth, moisture retention, and barrier function.
α-EG, a 100% natural moisturizing ingredient derived from sake, has a small molecular weight of 208 and can penetrate into every corner of the stratum corneum of the skin, delivering lasting hydration.

Change epidermal water retention time

In a test using a 50μ solution of α-EG applied to the arm for 2 minutes, moisture levels remained elevated for at least 4.5 hours after removal.

α-EG: A Moisturizing Ingredient Derived from Sake that Keeps Skin and Hair Healthy and Beautiful

It’s long been observed that the skin of toji (master brewers) is remarkably beautiful. The secret behind this beautiful skin lies in α-EG (α-ethyl-D-glucoside), a naturally moisturizing ingredient unique to sake. Kanazawa MOYU set out to harness this effect in shampoos, collaborating with Professor Kenji Ozeki of Kanazawa Institute of Technology, a leading expert on α-EG.
Their research revealed that Ishikawa's local sake contains a larger amount of α-EG, and uncovered that α-EG has a moisturizing function. Professor Ozeki also succeeded in developing a method to boost α-EG production, leading to the birth of the BE WASH series..

The Power of Lactic Acid Bacteria
Improves barrier function by balancing indigenous bacteria

The skin contains important bacteria called indigenous bacteria, and we have focused on skin beautifying bacteria in particular for their quick recovery and strength. Lactic acid bacteria help maintain the balance of indigenous bacteria and improve the barrier function. Sweat and sebum feed the indigenous bacteria living in the skin. In particular, the beneficial bacteria, Staphylococcus epidermidis, breaks down sebum and sweat into fatty acids and glycerin. These fatty acids then protect the skin from external irritants and harmful bacteria, while maintaining the skin's natural pH and moisture.

Extract Generated from Lactic Acid Bacteria

Soy beans Extract Generated from Lactic Acid Bacteria (Lactobacillus / soybean seed fermentation extract solution)

This extract is made by fermenting soybean milk with 16 strains of lactic acid bacteria and extracting only the most beneficial active components. Made using only Japanese-grown soybeans cultivated without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. This extract helps restore balance to the skin’s native microbiome and supports the repair of damaged skin.

Eco-Friendly Containers Made from 30% Plant-Based Biomass Plastic

As part of our efforts to become an environmentally friendly company, we are reducing the use of plastic in our shampoo containers. To reduce consumption of limited petroleum resources, we use shampoo containers made of biomass plastic with 30% plant content.

Biomass-Based Plastics

Biomass-Based Plastics (biopolyethylene and bio-PET)

This plastic is made from the portion left over after sugar is extracted from sugarcane. It does not compete with food supplies and leads to a reduction in the use of limited fossil-based materials. It also helps reduce CO2 emissions compared to petroleum-based plastics. It is a material that is friendly to both people and the earth.
