The Korean skincare brand "Dr.G" established by a dermatologist has released the 4th visual series in collaboration with Japanese brand ambassador JO1's Keigo Sato. The main product of this visual is the Red Blemish Clear Soothing Cream, which awakens the beauty of the skin by delivering moisture deep into the skin (stratum corneum). Using "moisture" and "foundation" as keywords, visuals were created using transparent blocks. The image expresses the impression of a well-organized skin barrier as the blocks filled with moisture stack up. The Red Blemish Clear Soothing Cream features a Cica-tenol (madecassoside) formula that enhances the skin's natural health while maintaining a moisture barrier that resists external stimuli. It contains 10 gentle CICA ingredients (madecassoside, asiatic acid, asiaticoside, madecassic acid, centella extract, centella leaf extract, cica panthenol, cica yeast, bio cica, barrier cica—all moisturizing ingredients) along with D-panthenol and niacinamide to gently care for skin troubles caused by dryness and UV rays. It is designed to be low-irritation for sensitive and acne-prone skin, suitable for home care after beauty treatments. The bouncy gel cream delivers moisture to the stratum corneum without stickiness, providing long-lasting hydration. It has surpassed cumulative sales of 32 million units (cumulative shipments from the manufacturer in the home country, including domestic and international, from January 2017 to September 2025). The Red Blemish Hyalu-Cica Soothing Serum features a unique development that encapsulates CICA ingredients in nano-sized hyaluronic acid capsules, which are smaller than liposomes. It contains hyalu-cica (asiaticoside, madecassic acid, asiatic acid, centella extract, hyaluronic acid Na—all moisturizing and skin conditioning ingredients). Together with niacinamide, it delivers moisture to every corner of the stratum corneum, gently stabilizing sensitive skin. Additionally, it includes "magnetic hyaluronic acid" (hyaluronic acid hydroxypropyltrimonium) that adheres to the skin like a magnet. Thanks to its ultra-low molecular weight, it achieves rapid penetration (to the stratum corneum) and high moisture retention, charging moisture to skin that tends to fluctuate due to external stress and lifestyle changes. With a cool texture, it keeps sensitive skin healthy. A pop-up event will be held from May 20 to May 26, featuring Keigo Sato's new visuals and allowing attendees to experience and purchase Dr.G's popular products, along with various content including an SNS event exclusive to visitors. During the pop-up event, a special movie featuring Keigo Sato will also be screened on large screens at NEDALI TOKYO along Meiji Street and Omotesando side.
