Curél Japanese Skincare Launching Exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart

J-Beauty has entered the chat—or rather, the shop.

Curél, Japan’s number one skincare brand for sensitive skin, will make its Canadian debut on September 7 and will be available exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart.

The brand is known for its science-backed formulations, proprietary ceramide technology, and Ceramide Care System: a two-step skincare philosophy centered around double cleansing and double moisturizing. This triple-threat approach deeply hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier, helps restore and protect ceramides, and maintains the skin’s natural moisture balance.

Overall, the gentle range offers simple yet effective solutions for everyone, especially those with dry, sensitive skin. Six products will launch, each priced between $29.99 and $34.99. Here’s what to expect. —Sidra Sheikh

Intensive Moisture Care Makeup Cleansing Oil (150mL)

The first step of the routine, this cleansing oil removes makeup and impurities without stripping the skin of moisture. Powerful, yet gentle.

Intensive Moisture Foaming Facial Wash (150mL)

Step two in the double cleansing routine, this foaming wash provides a deeper clean, leaving skin smooth, soft, and refreshed.

Intensive Moisture Hydrating Water Essence (150mL)

A lightweight, water-based essence that instantly hydrates and calms the skin while prepping it for better absorption of subsequent products.

Intensive Moisture Facial Cream (40g)

The second step in the double moisturizing philosophy, this rich yet lightweight cream replenishes ceramides, fortifies the skin barrier, and delivers all-day hydration.

Anti-Wrinkle Hydrating Serum (38mL) & CURÉL® Intensive Moisture Deep Moisture Spray (150g)

These targeted treatments enhance the two-step system. The serum nourishes the skin barrier, delivers anti-aging benefits, and smooths fine lines caused by dehydration. The moisture spray, packed with ceramide care, hydrates and soothes on the go.
