ICOR, a natural beauty brand based in Niseko, Hokkaido, is introducing a new summer-limited skincare series called SUIKA (Japanese for "watermelon"). The lineup is made with watermelon fruit extract harvested from watermelons grown in the vegetable garden at ICOR's Niseko flagship store, and goes on sale in limited quantities starting July 10, 2026.
Available at Biople Stores Nationwide from July 10
The SUIKA series launches alongside Biople's "Suika Fair," running from July 10 (Fri) to July 23 (Thu), 2026. The products will be sold in stores at all Biople locations, Biopイイトルミネ新宿店, and Cosme Kitchen Sapporo Stella Place, as well as online through the MASH GO GREEN STORE.
The lineup includes two items: a limited edition of ICOR's popular Oil-in Mist called "SUIKA Oil-in Mist," and a cooling gel serum called "SUIKA Aqua Serum." Both are designed to keep skin comfortably hydrated through the dry, hot summer months, from morning-and-night skincare to daytime touch-ups.
Grown in ICOR's Own Niseko Garden
At the heart of the SUIKA series is watermelon fruit extract sourced from watermelons grown in the vegetable garden at ICOR Niseko, the brand's flagship store. Raised in the clean air, water, and summer sun of Niseko, Hokkaido, the watermelons are carefully incorporated as a skincare ingredient. ICOR has long used Hokkaido-derived plant ingredients and upcycled materials in its products, and the SUIKA series continues that same local, resourceful approach.
The Key Ingredient: Watermelon Fruit Extract
Watermelon fruit extract is known as a moisturizing ingredient that hydrates while conditioning the skin, helping smooth out dryness-prone summer skin. Rich in amino acids and minerals, it helps even out skin texture while providing hydration against the dryness and UV exposure common in summer, for a clear, glowing complexion. Both products have a light, watery texture that feels refreshing on skin flushed from heat and sunlight.
SUIKA Oil-in Mist
A summer-limited version of ICOR's signature Oil-in Mist, this moisturizing mist is formulated with watermelon fruit extract to address shine on inner-dry skin as well as dryness caused by sun exposure and air conditioning. It works well as a daytime moisture boost as well as part of a morning-and-evening routine, and it can be used on the face, body, and hair. The oil layer is made with plant-derived squalane oil for a light, non-sticky feel that leaves skin with a natural glow even in the heat.
SUIKA Aqua Serum
This watery gel serum has a cooling, refreshing feel that spreads easily over skin, and works well not only on the face but also on the neck, décolletage, and hands. Along with watermelon fruit extract, it's formulated with menthol, spearmint oil, and peppermint oil for a cool sensation and scent, while soothing skin that tends to feel unsettled in the heat.
Because this product contains menthol, avoid applying it near the eyes or on broken skin.
A Fresh Citrus-Mint Aroma
Both products share a fruity, refreshing scent blend of lemon, orange, mint, Japanese mint, lemongrass, and cedarwood — a bright citrus opening that settles into a clear, calming mint finish.
