Kao Steam Eye Masks Review
Masks for eyes? Yes! I wasn't sure of these at first, but after one use I am hooked! These steam, but they don't burn your eyes; it heats up to a warm, but comfortable temperature that feels really relaxing and it soothes tired eyes. If you're like me and spent a lot of time in front of the computer, reading, or doing anything that may strain the eyes then these are a nice treat.
Very inexpensive on sasa.com~ Yuzu is my favorite, as you can see, I only have one left! Lavender is also nice and quite aromatic.

Sala Hair Mist
Hair mists are particularly popular in Asia, not so much in the states. I was constantly seeing this in Japanese drugstore, so I decided to try it out for myself.
Sala, a brand under Kanebo, sells a wide range of beautifully scented hair mists. This pink one is sweet with a hint of floral. Not too overwhelming, but just enough to make your hair smell intoxicating.
Lasting power is about 4 hours. Which isn't too bad, in my opinion.

MEISHOKU Organic Rose Skin Conditioning Gel
Previously I review the skin conditioner in the same line, but today I will review the gel! With moisturizers, I can't stand formulas that are sticky. Most of the time, I tend to go for gel type moisturizers. That way, it sinks into my skin quickly and my skin doesn't feel gross and tacky.
This large tub, made with organic roses, is really amazing. First off, I like that it's made with organic roses. The scent is sweet, but not overpowering. It great or day or night, since it sinks into the skin very quickly. Between the skin conditioner and this gel, I like the gel more since it's much more moisturizing.

Rohto Lycee Eye Drops Review
Ordinary eyedrops are nothing compared to Lycee Eye Drops! This eyed drop, made in Japan from Rohto, is highly refreshing and extremely moisturizing.
With other eye drop, it takes about 5 drips in each eye, but with Lycee I only need one is each eye! The packing is also very cute haha. Currently I own three of these; It's a product my eyes simply can't live without!

Kose Sekkisei White BB Cream Review
Kose Sekkisei is almost always packaged in its famous blue packing. Sekkisei is famous because of its usage of Chinese plants extracts. Most of their products focuses on whitening or brightening.
I'm still loving BB creams, so I couldn't resist this new BB cream from Kose. It doesn't come in a very large bottle, but like most BB creams you only need a little bit for one usage.
This BB cream comes in two colors, but there isn't much of a color difference between one and two, so I went with number 2.
It has a slight scent, but it isn't distracting. The coverage is medium to full (if you apply a second layer) Mostly I find it great for days when you want a natural look. I can't comment on the whitening effects, but a lot of people find it actually does whiten. For now, I enjoy it because it doesn't leave my skin gray, like most BB creams.

MEISHOKU Organic Rose Skin Conditioner Review
If you've know me, you'll know I love rose scented products. So when it's in a skin care product, of course I must try it out!
This Meishoku Organic Rose Skin Conditioner is in a very cute pink 200ml bottle.
It's main use is similar to a toner, so you can use it before or after make-up, after washing your face, or you can put it in a spray bottle to refresh your skin on the go.
It's made with organic roses. I find the scent to be light and soothing. It doesn't smell artificial at all. I like at the bottle opening is quite small, so I can control the product easily.
So far, I'm really enjoying this skin conditioner. I also own the gel in the same line, which I will review at a later time :)

YuskinA Yu-Be Review
Some time, my skin can be sensitive. Since I've been traveling lately, my skin has been reacting to the airplane recycled air. Luckily after one night of Yu-Be, my skin is in much better condition!
The best part of Yu-Be is that it's multipurpose! You can use it on your face, lips, hands, feet or anywhere imaginable!
Yu-Be skin is now sold at Sephora.com.

Kose SOFTYMO Mineral Wash Review
I was intrigued by this product, since it claimed to contain 12 different kinds of minerals that are good for the skin (pearl powder, royal jelly, deep sea water, etc) On top of that, the price was under $5!
Like most Japanese face wash, it doesn't dry out my skin or make my skin feel uncomfortable. I like using this with my Clarisonic, since it lathers up nicely.

Sana Soy Milk Whitening Cream Review
Sana is a popular Japanese brand that focuses on both cosmetics & skin care products. I believe they are most famous for their Soy Milk line, which contains a high amount of soya beans!
This Soy Milk Whitening Cream is a new product for me, but because of rave reviews I decided to buy two.
It's very light in texture and it absorbs into the skin quickly. There no distinct scent, which is great for those who are sensitive.
As of now, I can't see a whitening effect, but I think maybe by the time I'm done with bottles I may see a difference hehe.

Shiseido Perfect Whip Review
Face wash- it's one of those things that I'm constantly buying since it's a product I used day and night. Shiseido Perfect Whip is a cult favorite. At first, I didn't know why- how much more special could it actually be?
While in Japan, a bottle of Shiseido Perfect Whip was only $3, so I decided to give it a go. You know it's popular when Japanese drugstore only allows customers to buy no more than 5 bottles at a go.
First off, it's incredibly creamy! You only need half a pea size amount to obtain a fluffy ball of foam! If you have trouble foaming up facial foams, I recommend a facial foam net ;)
This cleaners removes everything! On top of that, it leaves my skin feeling smooth, fresh and squeaky. Cheapest place to buy this online, would have to be Sasa.com
