TOP DRAWS LLC (Headquarters: Tokyo) held the debut exhibition "HONESTUAL DEBUT SHOWCASE" for its lifestyle beauty brand "HONESTUAL" at JOINT AROUND THE CORNER in Harajuku on April 24, 2026.
On the day, over 300 people visited, and more than 200 units were sold in 4 hours.
The experience-driven brand design led to purchasing behavior in a short amount of time.
■ Exhibition designed from "experience to purchase"
The characteristic of this exhibition was not merely product display, but "the integrated design from experience to purchase."
At the venue, visitors were guided to actually try HONESTUAL's core elements:
〇 Scent
〇 Texture
Many visitors commented, "The texture is light and stress-free," "The scent is memorable," and "I want to use it daily," clearly demonstrating a structure where the usage experience itself became the purchasing motive.
■ Highly Supported Scent "Paradise Moss"
Among them, "Paradise Moss," the brand's symbolic scent, characterized by green notes reminiscent of a forest, gained high support from visitors.
It was evaluated as a product chosen for its sensory value, not just "functionality," in skincare.
■ Diverse Visitors Beyond the Beauty Industry
Visitors were not limited to beauty industry professionals but included:
* Influencers
* Media professionals
* Fashion industry professionals
* Hair and makeup artists
* Stylists, nail artists
* Talents
This indicated the brand's expansion beyond beauty into the lifestyle domain.
■ New Proposal: "Cleansing is a New Common Sense for Men"
Through this exhibition, HONESTUAL launched a new movement, proposing the value of "Cleansing is a new common sense for men."
Despite men having more sebum secretion than women and being prone to sebum and dirt accumulation in daily life, "cleansing" as a habit has not been sufficiently widespread until now.
Male visitors at the exhibition commented:
"I felt like my face wasn't completely clean with just face wash!"
"I realized the necessity of cleansing for the first time."
"The fact that it can also be used on the scalp is innovative."
This indicates the potential to update the very notion of skincare.
HONESTUAL will redefine cleansing not as "something for women" but as a new daily habit for everyone.

■ Buyer Evaluation: "A Brand that Imagines the Retail Space"
Buyers who visited commented:
【High completeness when placed in stores】
【Package and worldview match】
【Works well as a gift】
Receiving evaluation as a "brand that stands on its own in the retail space" rather than just individual products.
Over 300 Souvenirs
■ Designed as a "Take-Home Experience"
Over 300 gifts were prepared on the day.
HONESTUAL designs not just product purchase but also the "take-home experience" as part of its brand value.
The experience design, including shoppers and packaging, extending to daily life after bringing it home, left a strong impression on visitors.
■ Brand Philosophy: "Beauty Habits Starting from Scent"
HONESTUAL, based on honest ingredients and habituation through experience, redefines skincare not as a "task" but as a "sensory time."
This is an approach of an experience-value-driven brand, differing from conventional functionality-focused skincare.
■ Future Developments
Starting with this exhibition, HONESTUAL will:
Expand experiential events
Expand sales channels
Strengthen information dissemination
Accelerate its development as a "lifestyle brand starting from scent."
