Interview

Q. It's been about a year since the web commercial in 2025. How do you feel about participating in the "Make Keep" series shoot again after a while? A. (Inoue-san) I really felt like we've all grown up over the past year. When we first got the offer, Ogawa and Tomisato were still students (laughs). As time went by and our distance to makeup grew closer, I think the "Make Keep" series has become even more familiar to us. This time, with our makeup done so beautifully, seeing us all with makeup on again for this shoot made me feel very happy, thinking "We've grown up, we've become beautiful."

(Sugawara-san) We've been shooting for the "Make Keep" series for three consecutive years, and it's a product we use daily, so every year we shoot, I feel our love for it deepens among all the members.

Q. During this shoot, were there any specific expressions or ways of presenting yourselves that you consciously focused on, or anything you kept in mind? A. (Ichinose-san) There's a scene where Ogawa, Okamoto, and I play together by the fountain as friends. As Sugawara-san mentioned, it's a product we genuinely use every day, so I tried to convey through my expression that we trust "Make Keep Mist" like a friend. In the summer, we tend to get flustered due to sweat and heat, so I tried to convey a refreshing smile that blows away such feelings, and I enjoyed the shoot!

(Ikeda-san) In this shoot, I tried tennis for the very first time in my life. I believe "Make Keep Mist" is a product that shines even in active situations, so I approached the shoot hoping that its appeal would reach those who are always in such environments.

Q. In line with the CM title "A New Makeup Finishing Habit!", are there any things you are careful about when you do your makeup? A. (Nakanishi-san) When I do my makeup, I focus on creating a sense of dimension, for example, with shadows and highlights. I like how the highlighter on my cheeks sparkles during live performances, so for summer lives, I make sure to spray a lot of "Make Keep Mist" so that my cheeks stay sparkly on stage.

(Kawasaki-san) I have dry skin, so I focus on thorough skincare before makeup. Recently, I bought a steamer! I feel like applying foundation has become much smoother after using a steamer before makeup, so I'd recommend it to everyone.

(Okamoto-san) I'm particular about base makeup! After all, with base makeup, you want coverage but also for it not to smudge, right? In those cases, I not only spray "Make Keep Mist" after finishing my makeup, but I also lightly spray "Make Keep Mist" on my puff and pat it on when applying base makeup, which makes it very resistant to smudging. I always do this for live makeup.

Q. In line with the CM concept of "A New Makeup Finishing Habit," is there anything you want to make a habit? A. (Ogawa-san) What I want to make a habit is drinking water. I think caring for your skin from the inside is also important, so I plan to drink water! I often forget, so I want to make it a habit.

(Tomisato-san) What I want to make a habit is making my bed. On days when I'm rushed in the morning, my bed tends to get messy, so I want to make it a habit to make it properly so I can sleep comfortably when I get home.

Q. In relation to the word "Keep," what is the secret to the 5th Generation members being able to "keep" their close bond? A. (Ioki-san) We're always lively in the dressing room, and I love that time. When we're tired, we comfort each other, and we have funny conversations. We also exchange information like "Do you have any favorite makeup products?" I love those casual moments in the dressing room, and I think it's something that hasn't changed since we joined Nogizaka46, so I want to keep it forever.

(Okuda-san) Also, we love eating! We share delicious food. Just today (on the day of the shoot), Nagi (Inoue-san) bought cake for the members. I think we can stay close through this kind of kindness and love.

(All) Thank you for that!

Q. Please tell us what you are looking forward to this summer or what you would like to try. A. (Ikeda-san) We hold a nationwide tour every summer, and for the first time since we (5th Generation) joined, there are two places we'll be visiting for the first time on this tour: Yokohama and Fukui. I'm really looking forward to it, thinking we can convey the charm of Nogizaka46 even more to our fans.

(Inoue-san) It overlaps with the live performance talk, but personally, I was appointed chairman of "TOKYO IDOL FESTIVAL 2026" this year! Nogizaka46 will also be performing. As for Nogizaka46 in the summer, we have the "Natsu no Zenkoku Tour" coming up, so while we'll be getting excited with our fans on tour, I'd be happy if we could also get excited with idol fans from all over Japan at TIF (TOKYO IDOL FESTIVAL).

Q. Please give a message recommending "Make Keep Mist" to those who will enjoy summer outings and events.

(Ichinose-san) Summer is full of fun events, and it's my favorite season! If you can eliminate even one worry, like your makeup smudging due to the summer heat, you can enjoy events and outings even more, so I hope you'll spend a wonderful summer with "Make Keep Mist" as your partner! The finale of the nationwide tour I mentioned earlier will be an outdoor stage at Meiji Jingu Stadium, which we plan to use, and we'd be happy if you all could use "Make Keep Mist" and enjoy the summer with us!
