“The opening of this Shiseido brand store in Dubai marks an important step in the expansion of our company in the Middle East. We are delighted to bring our namesake brand’s state-of-the-art skincare innovation to the region’s very dynamic and demanding consumers.

The neutral palette, clean lines, and natural textures come together to create a sense of simplicity that captures the essence of the brand ethos.
