EKATO Brings Professional-Grade Self-Care to Kyoto for the First Time
Japanese self-care brand EKATO is set to host its inaugural solo pop-up shop in Kyoto, bringing its innovative beauty solutions to JR Kyoto Isetan. From January 6 (Tuesday) to January 12 (Monday/Holiday), 2026, visitors will have a unique opportunity to experience EKATO’s signature carbonated skincare and body care items, along with exclusive offers and services.
The pop-up, located on the 2nd floor special venue of JR Kyoto Isetan, marks EKATO’s first dedicated presence in the historic city. The event promises a comprehensive introduction to the brand’s philosophy of enabling professional-level care at home, blending traditional Japanese beauty components with cutting-edge technology to deliver tangible results.
A Glimpse into EKATO’s World of Carbonated Beauty
At the heart of EKATO’s offerings are its renowned carbonated care items. The brand’s standout Precious Gel Pack provides an impressive 60 minutes of continuous carbonation, designed to refine and revitalize the skin. Complementing this is the White Spa Wash, a 1-minute carbonated foam cleanser that aims to unveil a radiant, translucent complexion. These items, celebrated for their unique textures and visible effects, will be available for touch-up experiences, allowing guests to feel the invigorating sensation firsthand.
In addition to the carbonated essentials, the pop-up will feature the Body Meditation Roller. This lightweight, battery-free device is equipped with 272 “needle-like protrusions” that offer a comfortable self-care massage for the entire body. Visitors can personally try the roller and experience its soothing yet stimulating effect, a testament to EKATO’s commitment to holistic beauty.
Exclusive Offers and Personalized Touches
To celebrate its Kyoto debut, EKATO has prepared a range of special promotions and services. All products will be available at event-exclusive prices, alongside specially curated limited-time sets. These sets provide an ideal opportunity to dive into EKATO’s world of self-care.
One of the most anticipated features is the complimentary engraving service for customers who purchase the Body Meditation Roller. This allows for personalization with names or favorite words, making it a thoughtful gift or a unique addition to one’s own beauty arsenal. Imagine the joy of holding a beauty tool that feels uniquely yours, a small luxury that elevates the self-care ritual.
