I will localize your website into japanese
Japan Cosmetic Advisor, 17 Years, Brand Side and OEM Side
About this Gig
You will get Japanese website copy that reads like it was written for a Japanese customer, not translated for one.
I've spent 17+ years inside Japan's cosmetics and luxury industry, both on the brand side managing e-commerce sites and inside a major Japanese OEM developing products and marketing copy.
I'm also the published author of a Japanese-language book on the cosmetics industry.
Rather than translating word for word, I localize tone, nuance, and word choice based on how your specific audience actually reads and buys.
I'm also well versed in Japan's advertising regulations for cosmetics (Yakuji-ho), so I can flag any wording that might create compliance issues along the way.
My goal is copy that builds trust with Japanese consumers from the very first read.

FAQ
What's included in a revision?
A revision means adjusting word choice, tone, or phrasing within the same scope of work. It doesn't include adding new pages or expanding the word count, that falls under the add-ons above.
Do you translate literally, or do you localize?
I localize. A word-for-word translation often reads stiff or unnatural in Japanese, so I adapt tone, phrasing, and word choice to how your target customer actually reads and buys, while keeping your brand message intact.
Can you also review existing Japanese copy on my site?
Yes, if you already have Japanese copy and want a native check for tone, accuracy, or compliance, let me know before ordering so I can scope it properly.
Do you have experience outside of cosmetics?
Yes, my background is strongest in beauty, wellness, and luxury brands, but the same localization approach applies to any consumer-facing brand entering the Japanese market.
How do you handle brand terminology or product names?
I keep your existing brand name, product names, and any approved terminology consistent throughout. If you have a style guide or glossary, please share it in the requirements.
