History

Our founder, Rey Nakajima, is dedicated to harnessing traditional Japanese beauty expertise, natural ingredients and advanced German technology.

Born and raised in Tokyo, she first moved to Germany for work. The change in climate left her skin dry, leading her to wonder if she could combine cosmetics knowledge from her native Japan with German craftsmanship.
Germany is famous for high-quality natural and organic cosmetics, while in Japan it has long been known that natural ingredients such as camellia and rice promote beautiful skin.
The Japanese saying “On-ko-chi-shin温故知新” means to learn lessons from the past to create the future. Nakajima created REY TOKYO in this spirit—creating an incredible harmony between traditional Japanese expertise and advanced German techniques.
