In March of 2011, because of the Tohoku Earthquake, Fukushima, which has been devastated by the nuclear accident, has still not been able to reconstruct. However, by using the 'Power of Makeup', Shiseido was able to fulfill the dreams of Fukushima children, and give them hope for the future. An event was held, showcasing posters that reflected the children’s dreams created by Shiseido’s hair and makeup artists and designers, delivering smiles to children and people in the area. By creating a website of the campaign, many messages of encouragement were delivered to Fukushima from all over Japan.
