While there are many websites for Korean products, I can't find Japanese website offering products direct from Japan. Okay, I can't read Japanese words so finding website that is in English is really difficult without going through website like Amazon or Gmarket.
Personally, I prefer to buy direct from Japan and so happy that I found this website > < . Japan to you doorstep since who wants to fly to Japan just to buy a bottle of sunscreen?
I actually stumbled upon this website that offers Japanese products direct from Japan and they do personal shopping too. Only pay extra RM20 (USD5) for all the items which is ridiculous cheap. But of course don't asked for 100 different things since the fee charged is so low.
You can do the request from the Inquiries or pm them direct from Kirei facebook website.
I am kind of being frustrated with myself after I found out that I can request for other Japanese items not found on their website! However, I need to be careful with choosing cosmetics now. If you read at the end of this post, you will know why.
They have new arrivals and also Manager's Diary where there Editor favourite products. Prices are in Japanese yen and you need to use converter to figure out the prices of your items. Transaction is done only in Paypal at the moment.
Here the famous Laduree Face blusher from Japan. It is really pretty and Princess- liked. I heard buying from Gmarket cost like USD200 which is really more expensive than here. This is the summer version. There are many popular makeup products like Kiss Me, Kose, Shiseido from the makeup section.
Shipping is based on weight depending on what you choose.
They will send you an invoice from PayPal after deciding on your shipping fees based on how much you bought.
Here is their Shopping Guide Link . Check for more details on shipping.
You can choose EMS which is really fast or SAL although it is so much cheaper since there is no tracking numbers and they will not be responsible for lost items.
As for shopping in their website, I think it is easy. Just registered at the sign up now, fill out your personal details, choose products and click check out. For personal shopping, please request via Inquiries . Have a name or photos of the link for the product ready to make it easier for them to track things you want. I am not sure how long it will take for them to respond since I missed it. Hopefully it is fast you if you plan for them to do 'Personal shopping'.
I took the EMS and it reach me in 5 days. This package is opened for checking and please read the bottom on why it was opened and there is a cop there (ditahan-meaning they hold my item)
(especially if you are living in Malaysia)
So, what did I buy?
Kiku-Masamune Sake Brewing Skin Care Emulsion (the pink bottle)
Selling Price: 1,407円 (USD12)
Size 380g
Moritaya Tofu Yogurt Pack (tofu mask) (the one in jar with a face of a girl)
Selling Price: 2,660円 (USD22)
Size: 150g
I got the sake emulsion which comes in really a huge bottle. I am really curious as this is a skincare from a famous sake brewery! I saw some like the lotion very much. At first I ordered the emulsion but it is out of stock T_T and the company is not making it because of the changes in the weather. Why is the emulsion is selling out so fast? It must be good stuff since it is sold out? I wanted to get the lotion already to compensate it. I am so impressed with the good customer service by the website! They managed to get that bottle of emulsion for me!!!! That is such high good customer service! I think really highly of Japanese customer service and this really prove that I am right! Nothing like what we have some lousy customer here.
*sigh* On the other hand, I will be very unhappy since this will be the first and the last bottle I can order. My country doesn't allow sake stuff to come in here. T_T *cries*.
As for the Moritaya Tofu Yogurt mask, I saw some not so good reviews about it but the ingredients are really interesting and they are from natural things so hopefully it is going to be fine. This is not cheap but apparently good for dry skin type. I am just so curious and hope that curiosity is not going to kill me > <
So, that's all my simple haul from Japan. XP
PS:warning. If you are living in Malaysia like I do, then please do not Order brands that is not in the notification list with EMS. Use just normal registered mails or The SAL. IF you are really lucky, you will get a warning letter like me. I am really grateful and can't thank my lucky star enough for the whoever that hold my parcel is being nice to me and my product arrived to me with just a warning. Worse your things get stuck at the "kastam" and destroyed just because some people is not holding the licence to import those product to this BOLEHland ! Why is this so sad? Do read this problem written about another person here too. It is okay if the product is one piece, from brands like Shiseido, Kose, Canmake and not more than 1month supply if you want to use EMS. I am envious of people from other countries that can get brands into without problem. *cries bucket* Ah, my *Kikumasamune*
Okay, I can still order it but I must use SAL.(slow mail)
