Near JR Ashiya Station, along Ekimae-dori, it looks like a salon for “Moisteane,” a brand that sells cosmetics and beauty devices, is opening soon.

“Moisteane” is a brand of beauty devices and cosmetics, and it seems you can purchase their products after receiving counseling and trying them out at an exclusive salon.
Here’s the map↓
The address is 1F Vantage Ashiya, 3-6 Funadocho, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
Area Around the “Moisteane” Salon
↑ It’s on the first floor of an apartment building on the north side of Ekimae-dori. To the right are “Kimono Road MICHIKO” and “Emule Ballet School.”
↑ If you go this way east, you’ll find places like “Yakiniku Hanana” and “Jackson’s Market,” and it leads to the area in front of JR Ashiya Station, where the shopping malls “Laporte” and “Mont et Mer” are located.
↑ If you go the opposite way west, you’ll find places like “Ashiya Glanz Osteopathic Clinic” and “Torikizoku Ashiya,” heading toward the Ashiyagawa River and Taisho Bridge area.
↑ Across the street is “Alpa Ashiya,” which houses restaurants such as the Indian restaurant “Nawa Shanti” and the chicken restaurant “Ashiya Torikiyo.”
Final Thoughts
It still looked like interior work was underway, and it doesn’t seem to be listed on the store list on the website yet. Since it’s in a prominent spot near the station, many people may have seen the sign and wondered, “What kind of shop is this?”
