uka: A Japanese Approach to Beauty and Self-Care Rituals
Founded in Japan and rooted in the world of professional beauty salons, uka creates products that combine expert knowledge, sensorial experiences and everyday beauty rituals. The brand was relaunched under the name uka in 2009, with Kiho Watanabe at its helm, and has since developed collections dedicated to hair, hands and nails.
Its philosophy embraces a holistic approach to beauty: taking care of yourself through simple rituals, enjoyable textures and products designed for different moments throughout the day. This vision is reflected in a diverse collection ranging from hair care and nail oils to hand creams and body oils.
Japanese Hair Care Designed for Different Hair Needs
uka's hair care collection features a range of products designed to cleanse, nourish and care for hair on a daily basis. The IZU line, in particular, offers shampoos and hair treatments tailored to different needs, including all hair types, damaged hair and sensitive scalps.
The Wake up! and Nighty night treatments complement the collection with products designed to be applied after shampooing. They allow you to adapt your hair care routine according to your preferences and the specific needs of your hair.
The brand also offers hair oils such as Windy Lady and Rainy Walk, designed to complete your hair care ritual and add a sensorial finishing touch.
The Kenzan Scalp Brush: A Japanese Scalp Massage Ritual
One of uka's signature products, the Scalp Brush Kenzan, holds a special place in the brand's collection. Made from silicone, this innovative brush is designed to massage the scalp, both in the shower and on dry hair.
Its flexible or firmer tips allow you to customise the massage experience according to your preferences. When used during shampooing, it helps distribute the product while accompanying scalp cleansing. On dry hair, it can be used for gentle massage movements and targeted pressure.
The Kenzan is available in several firmness levels, from soft to extra firm, making it easy to find the right sensation for your scalp.
uka Nail Oils and Hand Creams: Everyday Hand and Nail Care
Hand and nail care are also at the heart of uka's identity. Its signature nail oils are available in several variations inspired by different moments of the day. They nourish the nails and cuticles while offering distinctive aromatic compositions.
The brand's hand creams extend this approach with a variety of textures and fragrances. The 7:15, 13:00 and 18:30 versions invite you to incorporate hand care into different moments of your daily routine.
Together, these products create a complementary hand and nail care ritual, combining manicure essentials, hand hydration and cuticle care.
uka Body Oils: Extending Your Beauty Rituals
The collection also includes body oils, notably the Hug, Dream and Balance editions. They are designed to complement your body care routine after showering or during moments dedicated to massage.
The Balance Shower Gel completes this selection of body care products. These creations reflect uka's holistic vision of beauty, where self-care extends beyond hair and hands to encompass the entire body.
