in China, high-end cosmetics distribution channels is the largest shopping malls, large large array of small domestic and foreign brands, supply and booming. In Japan, such as the drug store the popularity of popular methods of distribution, high-priced goods gathered in the shopping difficult, rare financial crisis has led to increased consumer interest savings, making high-end brand sales worse. Kanebo Kanebo that, for a large cosmetics companies integrated, high-end brands no matter under what circumstances should continue to strengthen, and reinforce the idea will have to be out of the flexible sales difficulties.

To solve these problems, Kanebo Kanebo get inspiration from the three-dimensional masks, introduced a unique 3D three-dimensional mask. This mask can cover not only been to the neck, but also in the development process in millimeters repeated adjustments to ensure that in the eye and lower jaw and other parts can be fit closely with the skin, do not overlook any detail. The product is priced at 10,500 yen a box of 6 (1 ¥ 1,750), is the most expensive Kanebo Kanebo's paper-style mask. Though expensive, but still caused widespread public attention after. Once again that the usefulness of products is the key to sales success, the real useful products, even if expensive, will be the beauty of women can act.
