'MANARA' x 'Bread, Espresso &' Collaborative 'Beauty Sweets' Sales Period and SNS Campaign Application Period Extended to Tuesday, June 30 Due to Popular Demand

Rank Up Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yumiko Iwasaki), which develops and sells cosmetics including the nationally popular original brand 'MANARA' that celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2026, has decided to extend the sales period and SNS campaign application period for its first collaborative menu 'Jabara and Frozen Greek Yogurt: Orange and Apricot Caramel Sauce' with Hitototo Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Takumi Yamamoto), which operates 'Bread, Espresso &', from the originally scheduled Sunday, May 31 to Tuesday, June 30. ■ Background of the Collaboration Period Extension Since its launch in March 2026, 'Jabara and Frozen Greek Yogurt: Orange and Apricot Caramel Sauce', which customers have enjoyed as a new spring self-care experience combining food and skincare under the theme of 'Eat, Enjoy, and Condition', started being offered in spring when pollen and temperature differences easily affect the skin, and has been very well received. As the sunlight gets stronger and temperatures continue to rise, we determined that the need for care for 'sensitive skin' caused by dryness and disrupted skin barrier function due to UV rays and heat will continue during this season, and decided to continue sales until the end of June. Regarding the store offering the menu, it will be sold exclusively at 'Crepe, Espresso & Gelato (Harajuku)', which manufactures authentic gelato in-store, as the most compatible environment during this season when the demand for cool gelato increases. ■ About the Collaborative Menu 'Jabara and Frozen Greek Yogurt: Orange and Apricot Caramel Sauce', born from this cross-industry collaboration, is an original menu themed 'Eat, Enjoy, and Condition' as a new spring/summer self-care experience combining food and skincare. It uses jabara, Greek yogurt, blood orange, and apricot as a 'beauty sweet' that supports vitamin charging during this season when skin conditions are a concern due to sunlight and environmental changes. Based on rich Greek yogurt that also provides protein, finely chopped jabara, a rare Japanese citrus rich in vitamin C and great for spring sniffles, is added for a fruity feel. The sauce, inspired by the hot cleansing gel, features fragrant caramel accented with the refreshing acidity of orange and apricot, enhancing the moderately sweet and refreshing taste. This collaborative sweet can be enjoyed in two patterns: 'Gelato' and 'Shake'. In addition, the first 2,000 customers who order this menu will receive 3 single-use pouches of 'MANARA Hot Cleansing Gel Massage Plus' as a gift. Please take this opportunity to enjoy a new spring/summer beauty experience with sweets and hot cleansing gel. *This product is a food item and does not substitute for the efficacy or effects of pharmaceuticals or cosmetics.

Extended Application Period: Tuesday, June 30, 2026, 23:59 ■ Cumulative Sales Exceed 30 Million Units! A warming cleanser that gently cares for 'sensitive skin' (*1) during seasonal changes from the outside 'MANARA Hot Cleansing Gel Massage Plus' MANARA Cosmetics' standard popular product, 'MANARA Hot Cleansing Gel Massage Plus', has recorded No. 1 in Japan in the 'Pore Cleansing Gel Category' for 13 consecutive years (*2), and cumulative series sales exceeded 30 million units (*3) as of April 2026. Unlike regular cleansers, it is a 'warming cleanser' that feels gently warm when applied to the skin. It utilizes the property of the plant-derived moisturizing ingredient 'glycerin' contained in the product, which reacts with moisture in the air to become warm, allowing for cleansing while gently warming. As the polarization of seasons progresses with rapid changes from winter to summer, it comfortably conditions skin exposed to external stimuli such as dust, dirt, UV rays, and stress through the warming effect of massage. [Product Overview] Product Name: MANARA Hot Cleansing Gel Massage Plus (Makeup Remover) Content: 200g Price: Regular price: 4,180 yen (tax included) Usage Period: About 2 months when used only at night Estimated Usage Amount: About 2.5 cm in diameter Color: Orange (Carrot root extract) (*4) Scent: Citrus scent (Limonene) [Skin Temperature Rise by Warming Effect] Just like massaging while warming with steam at a high-end esthetic salon, the rise in skin temperature and massage are a perfect match. The skin-friendly warming cleanser, where the moisturizing ingredient glycerin reacts with humidity to become warm, is a perfect item for massage. Also, warming with glycerin is expected to relax the skin and make it easier to remove makeup and dirt. ['Oil Crash Formula' to Prevent Worrisome Makeup Return] By adopting the Oil Crash Formula, where the more the contained oil is crushed by massage, the more it separates into beauty ingredients that penetrate the skin* and oil that entangles makeup dirt, it is finished as a cleanser more suitable for massage. *To the stratum corneum [Contains Over 90% Beauty Ingredients] While refreshing the face with a massage, beautiful skin care is achieved simultaneously with 91.3% beauty serum ingredients. *1: Due to dryness *2: 2012-2024 'Cleansing Product Sales Trend Survey' by TPC Marketing Research Corp.
