Dr. Green Looks at Top J-Beauty Products with NBC

J-beauty is a minimalist skincare approach centered on prevention, hydration, and consistency. It prioritizes fewer, high-quality products and gentle routines to maintain naturally healthy, glowing skin over time.  Several of the most popular J-Beauty products are reviewed with Dr. Green and the NBC News team this week to see how each can affect its users.

Dr. Michele Green notes that key Japanese skincare ingredients like rice bran, green tea, and sakura (cherry blossom) offer antioxidant, brightening, and anti-inflammatory benefits that help protect skin, even out tone, and support elasticity. However, she emphasizes that these ingredients are generally supportive rather than standalone treatments, meaning their effectiveness depends on formulation, concentration, and consistent use rather than acting as quick fixes.
