With a wide range of reasonably priced yet high-quality cosmetics and supplements easily available at the local convenience store, it’s no wonder Japanese women put great trust in DHC products. There’s the signature line of skincare made with organic Spanish olive oil as well as supplements perfect for everyday use – the brand is renowned for combining excellent quality with unbeatable value. Better yet, DHC stores offer tax-free service for tourists and short-term visitors in Japan. 

To get you started on your shopping spree, here are five of the most popular DHC products, all of which also make for great gifts.

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil

Countless Japanese women have used this most recognisable of DHC products – the Deep Cleansing Oil. Combining a thorough cleanse with a smooth, moisturising finish, it’s made from hand-picked, organic Spanish olives. These olives are ground with a millstone to extract their oil, which is a natural, skin-friendly beautifier.

DHC Olive Virgin Oil

DHC Olive Virgin Oil

The original favourite in DHC’s line of olive oil-based beauty products, this fully natural, organic oil is extracted from carefully selected Spanish olives. Thanks to a special method that allows for extracting oxidation-resistant oil, the DHC Olive Virgin Oil contains no artificial antioxidants whatsoever. Every drop packs a punch, so a single bottle will be enough for quite some time.

DHC Lip Cream

One of the most popular souvenirs for international travellers to Japan, this tiny wonder softens and moisturises your lips like no other lip cream on the market. While the package may look small, even a light swipe is usually enough, so the cream will last you longer than you’d think. Tasteless and odourless, the DHC Lip Cream is the perfect dry-weather companion for all genders.
