MASAMI, which means "truly beautiful," was created in 2020 by CEO Lynn Power, co-founder James Hammet and his husband, Masahiro Sasaki. It was inspired by the centuries-old tradition of Masahiro's family, who used ocean botanicals in their beauty routines and diet, sourced from the bays of Otsuchi in Iwate Prefecture, Japan.
At the heart of every MASAMI formula is mekabu, a seaweed that grows in northeastern Japan beneath the wakame leaf. MASAMI says it took a decade to perfect its formulas, and it sources its mekabu fresh from a family-owned seaweed company in Iwate, which harvests, dries and grinds it to MASAMI's specifications.
After the 2011 tsunami destroyed the bays and marine life of Otsuchi, MASAMI launched The MASAMI Institute, which supports local marine biology research to help protect ocean life and the surrounding communities. Its team works with local fishermen and coastline preservation groups to research, monitor and document each season's growth.
