Shiseido Company, Limited ('Shiseido') has revealed that digital fatigue*1 not only increases physical and mental fatigue but also changes skin conditions such as deterioration of skin barrier function, irregularity in corneocytes, and increased oxidative damage factor. It was also found that Shikuwasa extract enhances the expression of caspase-14, an important enzyme for skin barrier and moisturizing functions.
Shiseido has been conducting research on young skin and stress for more than 30 years, and studying the impacts of various stresses on the skin. This time, we focused on the lifestyles among today's youth of so-called digital natives, such as Gen Z, and successfully evaluated the impacts of digital fatigue on the skin by applying a unique test system. Going forward, Shiseido will continue to promote approaches that help consumers achieve healthy and beautiful skin in their own way, aiming to realize our corporate mission, 'BEAUTY INNOVATIONS FOR A BETTER WORLD'.
