La CASTA, the natural cosmetics brand built around the theme of "the vitality and healing power of plants," is opening a new concept store, La CASTA Atelier Essential Hankyu Umeda Main Store, on Wednesday, July 15, 2026.
A Space Wrapped in Greenery, Shaped by the Earth
The store is built from natural materials that honor the warmth of soil and wood.
Rather than simply drawing from nature's gifts, the interior materials were carefully chosen as part of an effort to give something back for the future.
The counter, softly shaped as if carved by the wind, evokes the grandeur and beauty of the natural landscape.
The textured walls, made by blending soil and plants from Omachi City in Nagano Prefecture, the brand's birthplace, express the beautiful cycle in which plants nurture the soil, and the soil, in turn, nurtures the plants.
Scalp Counseling for Healthy Hair and Scalp, Now and in the Future
The store introduces the brand's first diagnostic microscope for scalp analysis. Staff use it to assess each customer's hair and scalp condition and recommend care suited to their individual needs.
Staff uniforms are made from eco-friendly materials dyed with natural plant-based ingredients such as onion skins, welcoming customers with a sense of respect for nature.
