Ruhaku is the first organic care brand from Okinawa, the legendary island of longevity, Ecocert certified using the unique power of antioxidants from Gettou leaves.
Ruhaku is a word combining Ryukyu and Bihaku (light and flexible skin in Japanese). Indeed, the Okinawa archipelago, located in the extreme south of Japan, was once called Ryukyu (island known for its beautiful Turquoise ocean, its lush forest and its exceptional longevity) and Bihaku (clear and flexible skin in Japanese ).
Okinawa: the island of longevity
The island of Okinawa is in Japan and is known thanks to the long life expectancy of its inhabitants. The virtues of its unique plants that are only found in Okinawa, largely contribute to the health of its citizens.
Island D’Okinawa is full of energy plants. Plants in Okinawa grow in a hostile environment with a strong sea breeze and significant UV radiation. However, not only do these plants do not succumb to this environment, but they keep all their freshness and normally grow. These plants succeed in overcoming such an environment by containing in them a very high rate of antioxidants. These antioxidants have benefits for the beauty and health of the skin.
Gettou: the key component
The Gettou plant is classified in the category of zingiberic herbs and grows up to 2-3 meters high even in hard soil with a strong UV radiation.
The Gettou plant grows in an area very exposed to sunlight and the sea breeze producing a powerful antioxidant. The water and oil extracted from the Gettou leaf have real anti-aging virtues.
For 100 kilograms of Gettou leaves, it is only possible to extract 30 milliliters of oil.
It was proven by researchers from Ryukyu University that Gettou's essential oil contained a content eliminating "reactive oxygen" which oxidizes the lipids present in the skin. In addition, the Gettou contains in him an aroma that soothes the mind.
Ruhaku only uses Gettou plants cultivated on the island of Hamahiga in the Okinawa archipelago and certified by the Organic Biological Institute “Jas”.
The island of Hamahiga is a sacred island, formerly called "the island where the gods lived".
