SHOPPING IN OSAKA.

Heya!

It's been awhile since I've been to Osaka (summer sonic 2013.)

At the end of August, I went shopping in Osaka. I went to TOWER RECORDS and JUNKUDO (one of famous bookstores in Japan.)

I got a DVD and two music magazines.
CLASSIC ROCK is the magazine which I've looked for. The covered of the Q magazine was daft punk! Have you listened to their new album called Random Access Memories? I recommend it!

That's a good buy!

And next time I want to go around to second hand stores in Osaka with friends :)

THE BALM COSMETICS.

Hi, all :) How are you?

I'm so excited because I got two makeup products from the Balm Cosmetics last week.

MARY-LOU MANIZER

I've seen swatches of this luminizer for many times on youtube and some posts by beauty bloggers.

I have oily skin. And basically I prefer matte skin (or semi matte skin) to glow and luminous skin. But I'm interested in luminizer. I've wanted to try it. Then I decided to get this.

It has a vintage design of packaging. So cute! To be honest, the texture is a little powdery.
It gives natural shimmer and glow on back of my hand.
But there is a big problem...I don't know how to use and control the luminizer on my face. Because I've never tried it. hehe:p Please tell me how to use it!
・price 2520yen (included tax)

INSTAIN BLUSH IN PINSTRIPE

Yes! It was one of my September wishlist.
It has a cardboard packaging. It's like a cover of magazine. And there is a mirror inside the packaging. It's very useful.
The plum wish golden shimmer colour is so pretty! 
It's so pigmented. Also it has a lasting power.
・price  2310yen(included tax)

They are a little expensive for me. So I got these products after my payday!

Have you tried THE BALM COSMETICS?

GEM DEW EYES/RIMMEL LONDON.

I'm a big fan of RIMMEL LONDON. I think rimmel products in UK (and other countries) are great.
But rimmel products in Japan are not so interesting... They are similar to other Japanese (drugstore) makeup products. There are nothing special. To be honest, I don't like their advertisements (Japanese famous singer, model...boring, not attractive:p)

About two weeks ago, I got one eyeshadow palette called GEM DEW EYES.  Because I've been searching for plum colour eyeshadow.

・packaging ★★☆☆☆
It's a simple black plastic packaging. You can see what colours are in it easily.

・colours ★★★★☆
This palette has five colours. Shimmer beidge, three kind of brown colours, and deep plum colour. It's easy to do smokey look. And they have five colour variation.

・lasting power ★★★★☆
It's not powdery. This eyeshadow contains moist oil. So I think this eyeshadow doesn't need eyeshadow primer.

・price ★★★☆☆
It's 1680yen(tax included.) It's a little expensive for me...What do you think?

Do you like RIMMEL LONDON?  Have you tried RIMMEL LONDON products which sold in Japan?

SEPTEMBER WISHLIST (BEAUTY)!

Hi, all :) How are you?

The typhoon hit Kyoto today(maybe...from last night.) And it flooded the rivers in Kyoto... Now the typhoon is gone, but public transportation have been paralyzed by the typhoon all day:'(

Here is my September wishlist of beauty (makeup products and perfume)!!

MOISTURE RENEW LIPSTICK/RIMMEL LONDON

・piccadilly pink
・to nude or not to nude
・let's get naked

I have some moisture renew lipsticks by rimmel london.  Yes! I like them so much! They are very moisturizing. Probably they are most moisturizing lipsticks I've ever owned. They are perfect for dry lips, and fall/winter seasons. The pigmentation of the lipsticks are good, too.
And now I'm interested in the Dazzling Duchess collection for fall 2013. It contains berries, pinks and nudes shades:)

INSTAIN  BLUSH IN PINSTRIPE/THE BALM COSMETICS

I often watch some makeup tutorials using the Balm Cosmetics on youtube. And finally the Balm Cosmetics launched in Japan.
Last week I found them at LOFT in Kyoto. These cosmetics have cute packaging:) And this plum colour blush caught my eyes. Pinstripe is plum with golden shimmer blush. I think it's perfect for fall and winter seasons!

THE ONE DESIRE PERFUME/DOLCE & GABBANA

top notes-citrusy blend of bergamot, mandarin, lychee and lily of valley

the heart-bloom with seductive tuberose

the base-caramel, vanilla, sandalwood and musk

I really like sweet scented perfume and body spray (I'll write about it before long.) I don't have any dolce & gabbana perfume. LIGHT BLUE is one of famous perfumes all of the world, isn't it?  I found this perfume on Japanese magazine. Unfortunately, the perfume is a little expensive for me...:'( ewww. But I want to try it.

What's on your wishlist this month?

SEPTEMBER WISHLIST (MUSIC)!

Hi, all:) How are you?

Here is my September wishlist of music (it means albums) I really want to get...
Let's get started:)

SIAMESE DREAM/The Smashing Pumpkins

GISH/The Smashing Pumpkins 

MELLON COLLIE AND THE INFINITE SADNESS/The Smashing Pumpkins

 
After I saw their performance in  summer sonic 2013, I started to have an interest in their music.
First of all, I want to get three albums. I ordered these albums on tower records online last week. Ah, I can't wait!

BRITISH RAIN/Gabrielle Aplin

I listened the sample music of the album many times at tower records in Kyoto.
I like her nice singing voice, and the bittersweet lyrics of her songs...

What's on your wishlist this month ?

OUTFITS OF THIS SUMMER.

Hi, all :) How are you? It's getting a little bit cooler in Kyoto. So it's more comfortable.

I decided to look back my outfits of this summer at this time.

Well, I love wearing black clothes.
And I challenged myself to something new...SKIRTS(Payton, thank you for giving me a nice brown skirt!)  

I hope you'll enjoy my boring outfits...hehe:p
