What is the difference between Hada Labo hydrating lotion rich and light?

The Light variant is more watery and less emollient compared to the Rich variant, so if you have oily skin, it's a better option. If you have dry skin, go for the Rich one. And remember, the key to achieve soft, bouncy, supple, mochi-mochi skin is to make sure to apply the lotions using the patting motion technique.

REVIEW ON KISS ME HEAVY ROTATION GEL WATERPROOF EYEBROW LINER

Hi beautiful,

Truly one of the makeup gem brand, Japanese Kiss Me Heavy Rotation Gel Waterproof Eyebrow Liner.

Kiss Me is one of those Japanese makeup brand that gained popularity internationally from word of mouth.  

Their mascara is just sweatproof, makes any stick straight eyelashes became curled and stay that way for the whole day and it is very affordable.

Finally the days came where we can just kiss goodbye to those panda eyes and stick straight eyelashes.
It is drugstore price but with professional results.  Honestly, it is better than some high end brands that I have tried that melt in my country's weather (hot&humid)

Kiss Me Heavy Rotation Gel Waterproof Eyebrow Liner (natural brown)

Product details:
A versatile liner that works on the eyebrows or lash lines as eyeliner
Richly pigmented formula delivers intense color
Soft core pencil gives a gentle & natural finish
Helps create perfectly shaped brows to frame the face
Highly resistant to sweat, sebum & rubbing
Long wearing throughout the day

How to use:
1. Twist out approx 1-2 mm of a pencil.
2. Draw eyebrow hair one by one with light strokes and fill out your eyebrow.
3. Blend out the color with the eyebrow brush.

Packaging: Nice simple packaging with pictorial instruction on it.  It is written in Japanese which I can't read.  The English is the name of the product, the colour and where it was made.

Ingredients talk: 

Ingredients::
• Color: natural brown
Mica, Behenic Acid, CI 77492, Rhus Succedanea Fruit Wax, Titanium Dioxide, CI 77499, Phytosteryl/Isostearyl/Cetyl/Stearyl/Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Triethylhexanoin, Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Sucrose Tetrastearate Triacetate, CI 77491, Sorbitan Sesquiisostearate, Aluminum Hydroxide, Tocopherol, Panthenol

Paraben free, sulfate free, alcohol free, Eu allergen free, silicone free, 

not oil free-contains hydrogenated castor oil, not fungal-acne safe (malassezia)

Texture: No scent on it.  It has one side with the spoolie and the other side is the eyebrow liner

Review: Application is easy and smooth. Use the spoolie to blend and it will looks more natural.    The colour that I have choosen that look good on me since I need something similar to my light eyebrow.  It is good product to travel with since I can also use it as eyeliner.  It is waterproof, resistant to sweat and last a long time.  If I rub it with my oily fingers by the end of 8hours in hot and humid weather, it fades only a little.  So it is pretty good to wear it to beach or sport activities.  The cons is not lot of product inside so I went through it very fast.

Overall: A good waterproof eyebrow liner pencil for any skin type although a bit lesser product.

REVIEW ON SHU UEMURA S CURL EYELASH CURLER

Hi beautiful,

Do you have straight short eyelashes? Had the eyelash curler accidentally 'pinch' your eyelid too because you just tried to get it as close as possible to your eyelids?

Yes, I gave up on using most of those eyelash curler that just pinched my eyelids instead of my eyelashes until this Shu Uemura.  

There is this method that the Korean makeup artists use but I don't want to accidentally burn my eyelashes off from my lack of skill.

So here is review on Shu Uemura S Curl Eyelash Curler.

If you are interested to see comparison of some eyelash curlers do check out the video below.

Packaging: It comes in a simple box with instruction in English and Japanese.  I like it since most people will wonder how to use it.

Product Dimensions 2.4 x 1 x 4 inches

Weight:  5.92 Ounces

It has comfortable silicone so that it doesn't hurt the eyelids.  I also like the dimension that works with any type of eye shape and eyelashes length.

Review:  It is easy to carry and just great for curling my short eyelashes.  I can even reach short eyelashes and curler them up.  I get why this is a best seller and love by makeup artists.

After trying other curlers I think I am just going to settle for this one.  It ia actually very affordable for being such high quality.

Overall: I highly recommend this eyelash curler for those with hooded eyelids and short eyelashes.  It works well to curl my eyelashes without hurting my eyelids.  The dimension works for every type of eyes.

REVIEW ON JAPANESE ORIHIRO DOKUDAMI HEARTLEAF TEA

Hi beautiful people,

I eat my skincare ingredients so here today is introducing you to Japanese Orihiro Dokudami Heartleaf Tea 60 Bags.

Most people know heart leaf by the scientific name houttuynia cordata. Other names are fish mint, fish leaf, rainbow plant, chameleon plant, heart leaf, fish wort, or Chinese lizard tail.

It is also eaten as in Asian dishes.

Houttuynia cordata is an antioxidant, anti-bacterial, gentle, hydrating and anti-inflammatory which is good for the body and skin since it is anti-inflammatory- calm acne, rashes, eczema.

Product description
"Orihiro Tokudoku Dudamicha 3g * 60 packets" is a fragrant, easy-to-drink dakudami tea. 

Using only dry dough leaves, the unique bitterness was suppressed by full-fledged roasting, making it easy to drink. 

A tea bag type that can be used for both water and boiled water.

Packaging:  It comes everything written in Japanese.  Good with pictures so that I can make a guess on how to make tea with it.  Inside are 3 X 20bags inside which is really good for hygienic purposes.

Scent: Dokudami (heartleaf) has a unique scent of light woody scent.  I like the scent.  The tea is not bitter at all even when soak inside for more than 10minutues because of my laziness.

Review:  

This is 100% Dokudami (heartleaf).  It is currently famous in skincare for calming, anti-inflammatory and heal acne prone skin.  The Japanese eat heartleaf as vegetables which is actually good for health.

 

It is easy to make tea with this.  I am just lazy with washing so many of those tea equipment so I just leave it inside the cup.  It is a good tea to drink to calm your body and your skin.  When I was drinking this tea, my skin heals faster and less redness. 

It is good to drink it when having fever too. 

 

Overall: It is a nice good tea to drink 😊. I recommend it.

Packaging: It is small compact foil packet type with the broth powder inside the packet.  It is enough for two people.  Since this one is imported it does have English details on it along with Japanese.  The guide on cooking has even photos on how to cook it which is really thoughtful.

Review: The ingredients are all vegetarians so it looks good to eat.  The noodles are the small round noodles which is how Japanese noodles are.  I like the noodles.  The broth is white and it taste a bit like soya sauce which is the savoury type.

Overall: It is a pretty nice vegetarian Hakata Tonkotsu ramen noodles.

Tarami grape jelly (seasonal fruit).

This is an seasonal available jelly from Nagasaki, Japan.  This one I have is grape jelly which does contain alcohol.  It has safflower and gardenia in it.  I really like the thoughtfulness of removing the skin from the grape already.  It has taste of safflower with a very light scent of sake (wild guess).  Sweetness is just right and I think it is pretty tasty. It reminds me of osmanthus jelly.
