白鶴 鶴の玉手箱 大吟醸のうるおい化粧水
skincare lotion
A sake based moisturizing lotion from Hakutsuru, an actual Japanese sake brewery (established 1743). Uses sake ferment filtrate for hydration and brightening, similar to Kikumasamune but from a different historic sake maker. The 500ml size offers excellent value. The brewing heritage means the fermentation process is authentic, not replicated. A budget friendly option for the fermented skincare trend.
Key Ingredients
FAQ
What's the difference between this and Kikumasamune?
Both are sake-based lotions from actual sake breweries, but Hakutsuru (established 1743) uses sake ferment filtrate from their own brewing process, while Kikumasamune is also a brewer with a different fermentation heritage. Hakutsuru is reported to have zero scent compared to Kikumasamune's strong sake smell. The 500ml size and price point are similar. If the sake smell bothers you, try Hakutsuru.
Can I use this on my body too?
Yes. The 500ml bottle size makes it practical for body use. Sake ferment is traditionally used for full-body skin brightening in Japan, and the lightweight texture absorbs quickly without stickiness. Many people use sake lotions as an affordable body treatment for brightness and hydration.
