Beauty Philosophy
At DHC, we wholeheartedly embrace the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi that teaches there is beauty in imperfection. According to wabi-sabi, each of us is “perfectly imperfect.” We want to help you, and people everywhere, feel beautiful in your own skin.
DHC’s Beginning
What originally began in 1972 as an educational translation company in Japan, DHC (standing for Daigaku Honyaku Center) made its foray into skincare when a visionary Japanese entrepreneur had the idea to create superior skincare products utilizing organic olives. For over 40 years, DHC has fused the latest science with traditional botanicals in a quest to revolutionize modern skincare.
The Original Star Ingredient
The very first product in the DHC line was Olive Virgin Oil. One of the most nourishing oils in the world, olive oil is high in antioxidants, vitamin E and polyphenols. Because it hydrates without clogging pores, it has been a natural beauty mainstay for decades. Our olive oil comes from the organic olive groves in Baena, Spain, where the Flor de Aceite (flower of the oil) is carefully extracted from the crush before the first cold pressing, then ultra-purified in our state-of-the-art factories in Japan.
Time-Honored Japanese Tradition
Double Cleansing is a centuries-old ritual for achieving the most clean, fresh and incredibly soft complexion you’ll ever experience. An oil-based cleanser breaks down all makeup, oil and dirt and a foaming cleanser rinses away the rest. Double Cleansing is both effective and extraordinary, proving two is truly better than one.
A Cult Classic
Inspired by Japanese beauty traditions, DHC’s bestselling Deep Cleansing Oil ® is truly one of a kind. Its organic olive oil–based formulation binds with impurities to gently dissolve dirt, sunscreen, sebum and stubborn makeup, like waterproof mascara and eyeliner.
