Shiseido’s first cosmetic was a red lotion called Eudermine. Because of this, Shiseido became linked with the color red. 120 years and 7 reformulations later, this color connection is so deep, it is ingrained in Shiseido’s identity. Eudermine remains one of the company’s global bestsellers, and Shiseido’s signature red camellia logo still graces Shiseido’s packaging. Now, red is an important element in all of Shiseido’s global product lines, a renewed visual declaration of the company’s true color.
