Estée Lauder Aqua Charge – Japanese Hydration Skincare Powered by Rice Fermentation
Discover Estée Lauder Aqua Charge, an award-winning Japanese skincare collection developed to help skin maintain its own moisture and stay resilient against seasonal changes, environmental stress, and dehydration.
Created through the collaboration of Estée Lauder's 75 years of skin science research and Yuushin Brewery's 170-year fermentation expertise, Aqua Charge introduces a new approach to hydration focused on strengthening the skin's natural ability to retain moisture.
At the heart of the collection is Rice Power™ No.11α, a unique active ingredient derived from 100% Japanese rice through an extensive fermentation process. Unlike traditional moisturizers that simply add hydration to the skin's surface, Rice Power™ No.11α is approved in Japan for helping improve the skin's moisture-retention capability, supporting healthier-looking skin from within.
The Aqua Charge range also features Estée Lauder's innovative Self-Hydro Technology, designed to support ceramide production and help reinforce the skin barrier. Combined with multiple ceramides, hydrating ingredients, and skin-conditioning actives, the collection helps create skin that feels softer, smoother, and more resilient throughout the year.

Seasonal dryness and dehydration
Environmental stress and climate changes

Roughness and loss of radiance
