No reservation is required, and participation is free.

The new "B.A Eye Zone Cream" (product name: POLA B.A Eye Zone Cream 7) will go on sale on Thursday, October 1, 2026. The venue will feature a gate-shaped object that visualizes the eye area in three dimensions, and a space themed on a gym. Besides touch-ups, there will be an exhibition of POLA's research, which has focused on the eye area's unique structure (*1) for 38 years, and original exercises that move the orbicularis oculi muscle.

Four zones that begin when you pass through the gate

At the entrance of the venue, there will be a gate called the "Eyeconic Gate," which depicts the eye area in three dimensions. Once you pass through the gate, graphics depicting the eye area greet you. It can also be used as a photo spot.

The "Introduction Zone" is a research exhibition area. It introduces the 38-year trajectory of eye area research together with the changing aesthetic sense that has resided in the eyes, alongside actual products. Through experiences such as an orbicularis oculi zone check, visitors can learn about the mechanism and structure of the eye area.

In the "Exercise Zone," visitors can try three types of original exercises that focus on the muscles of the eye area, including the orbicularis oculi. They were co-developed by POLA and Itsuko Okuda, director of the ONI Aging Imaging Institute, and are participatory exercises in which you move your eye area along with videos shown on the screen at the venue.
