Lamin sheet mask

 I got this mask a while back when I was in Japan. I got this while buying some other products. It was not something I chose personaly, so the more curious I am about this product.

Japanese slimming products

 Japans obsession with being thin is obvious wherever you go. In all kinds of stores you will find products that will enhance your beauty by slimming parts of your body with different techniques. I saw so many different products that I became curious whether it worked or if it is just a marketing trick. I got 2 different products for 2 body parts.

canmake your lip only gloss

 This is a product that I heard a lot about when research what I wanted to buy in Japan. This lipgloss was something that was mentioned so many times. Now I am not the biggest fan of lipglosses. to be honest I don't like the stickyness of them. I prefer lipstick. But because of th emany prices it has won and the great things I have heard about it, I am willing to give it a try. I hade to pay around 8 euros for each lipgloss, if i remember it correctly. Each lipgloss has a plastic seethrough container with a print locked with a golden top.

Sugao blush

This product is a Japanse blush that i found in a store. It is from sugao.

Dolly wink eyeliners

 

 

This is one of those products that I heard a lot about. But because it is very expensive to buy this online I decided to wait until my next trip to Japan. In the first store that I went looking for these the black one was already sold out. I was warned for that since these are very popular. In the end in managed to get a black one and a brown one. I am talking about the dolly wink eyeliners.

Revlon Ultra matt lipcolor 12. Addiction

I will finally start with my products from Japan. I know this is not a Japanese brand but the color looked so amazing that I was not able to leave it. I just had to take it with me.

Koji eyelash glue

 

When I got my fake lashes I wasn’t too happy with the glue that came with it. My lashes came off after a couple of hours. That is not something you want to happen to you on a normal day or a night out. So I decided to try out some other glue to see if that one worked better. I found the Koji eyelash glue in clear for less than 3€.

cezanne high lighter

I have had this high lighter for quite a while now. And it has become one of my favorites, so I couldn’t help but wanting to share it with you.  Do not get scared because this looks really white and it might leave a white glow on your face, I will tell you all about it.

Canmake eyeshadow

 

I bought this Japanese eyeshadow palette 2 years ago when I lived in Japan. I bought this because I wanted some natural color that I could wear on days I would hang out with my friends.

LB Love Duet

This highlighter was a product that I bought, back when I was still living in Japan. I never  used it because after opening I thought it was a bit weird, so I sort of forgot about it. Recently I put it back in my stash and decided to give it another shot.

LB products

 

This week I will introduce you to a Japanese brand. It is called LB. I do not really know if it is really well known cause I only found 1 store where they sold this brand. It can be found at loft but not at all their locations.

Japanese beauty trends

While I was reading a Japanese magazine a friend gave me, I noticed a few trends that caught my eye. I want to share them with you and hear your opinion. All the pictures came from a magazine called SEDA. It was the march 2015 issue.

Japanese make-up

I have lived in japan as an exchange student for a year. When I lived there I have bought quite some cosmetics since I didn’t bring much ( I thought I wasn’t allowed to wear anything since I was in high school) but on my days of I wanted to wear some make up so I bought some things there that I want to share with you and give you my recommendation on what brands you should buy and which one you shouldn’t buy.
