"CHEF de BEAUTÉ," a skincare brand run by Momotani Juntenkan Co., Ltd., will hold a POP UP STORE for a limited time from Wednesday, October 14 to Tuesday, October 27, 2026, at a special venue in the cosmetics section on the 2nd floor of the Tower Building of Abeno Harukas Kintetsu Main Store. The company is in its 141st year and has set "Creating a beautiful future for people and the planet" as its purpose.
According to the release, the "Hand Cream Tailoring Experience," offered at its Kyoto flagship store, makes its Osaka debut. A "Personal Skincare Experience" using AI skin diagnosis will also be held, and items from "Regrage," a skincare brand of Momotani Juntenkan, will also be sold.
The hand cream tailoring experience needs no reservation and takes about 10 minutes
The "Hand Cream Tailoring Experience" can be joined without a reservation at the venue, which is directly connected to Tennoji Station. You choose the texture, fragrance and packaging, and staff tailor a one-of-a-kind hand cream right in front of you.
The experience has three steps. You choose a cream by texture, choose a fragrance to match your mood, and choose packaging to suit your lifestyle. It takes about 10 minutes and costs ¥2,420 including tax (experience and product).
The Personal Skincare Experience using AI skin diagnosis takes 60 minutes and is free
The "Personal Skincare Experience" is a 60-minute experience in which a skincare recipe is tailored to your current skin. The company explains that makeup below the eyes is removed, and AI skin diagnosis analyzes even fine skin concerns that are hard to see in a mirror. A skin treatment follows.
Participation is free, and reservations are given priority. It is offered as an experience for autumn, when skin condition changes with the season and dryness is more easily felt.
