Nobody gives me a second look when I covertly take pictures with my mobile.. so yeah you guys will have to deal with bad lighting and blurriness haha (^ ω ~)
Part of Lunasol’s Sheer Gold Collection for Winter 2010. The eyeshadow palette is very wearable! I went to the Kanebo counter two hours after it opened, and there were only four sets left (o ω O)
Majolica Majorca’s newest offering, Majoromantica. Lovely scent~
Ayumi Hamasaki for Rimmel.
Kiss Me Heroine and Heavy Rotation stand.
A plethora of Japanese magazines as well as mooks!
Sweet has pretty nice GWPs. From left: October to December 2010 issues.
YSL, Hunting World 2010 A/W Collection, Peanuts 60th Anniversary Book Snoopy.
Tommy / Tommy Girl 2010 Fall & Winter Collection, Marc by Marc Jacobs 2010 Spring/Summer Collection, Cath Kidston “Fly to the UK!”, Tsumori Chisato 2010-11 Autumn & Winter Collection, Harrods.

Laforet Harajuku 2010A/W, Gelato Pique 2010-11 Winter Collection.
Recipes of Japanese Cooking is a good Japanese cookbook! It's in English (no translations needed (^ ω ~)) and the instructions are really concise.
Even Harrods has gotten into the Hello Kitty craze~
Winter clothing in Uniqlo. Gahh, can't they bring their summer collection in?!
Macarons to get your salivary glands working overtime (^ ω ^)
I usually post these pictures on Twitter, but this time around I thought that I’d share them on my blog.
On another note, I have these adorable Hello Kitty images to share with you! I’m not a big Hello Kitty fan, but this changed recently. Sanrio’s aggressive marketing certainly helps in captivating me; Hello Kitty merchandise is everywhere!
This time around, she is in an Alice in Wonderland costume. This series is limited edition as well as made in Japan (does this mean that the other series aren’t made in Japan? Haha)
Plushie ¥ 3,990
Clip Frame Purse ¥ 2,415
Mug ¥ 1,365
There’s also an uber adorable Biscuit Bear Kitty range~
Bracelet ¥ 3,150
Makeup Box ¥ 6,300
Tote ¥ 3,150
Iwant need them!!!
Do check out Sanrio’s website for the other items as well as series available.
Going back to beauty related topics.. here are some scans from the December issues of Sweet, ViVi and VoCE.
Is it just me, or are all MUAs in Japanese magazines feeling the same trend? All of these models are sporting neutral understated looks.
As usual, I’ll end my randomness with something that I nommed!
This marshmallow chocolate bar smells perfectly ordinary, but the texture is softer and creamier than normal milk chocolate.
It's a nice change from chocolates with raisin, nut etc fillings. You can taste the quality and care that goes into these chocolate squares, it has the perfect combination of milk chocolate and soft, fluffy marshmallow ♥ It gets a thumbs up from me!
I hope I wasn't too gluttony in finishing the whole thing within 5 minutes! In my defence the sweetness level is very bearable, it isn't teeth-rotteningly sweet at all ← gave me the illusion that I was indulging in something healthier than chocolate hahaha
You can purchase Meiji's Creamy Marshmallow Chocolate from your snacks aisles or napaJapan.
What are your plans for the weekend? Do share!

Oh my gosh... why are you tempting me?! ;)
The Lunasol Sheer Gold palette is sooo beautiful! Wanna have!
I am looking forward to your swatches .....wish we could have smelly swatches!
my eyes are drooling with these eye candies!
Woww you're really lucky to have so much choice for Japanese goodies! =) And if Ayumi advertised for RImmel here, I might actually look at the makeup! LOL!
No one gives you a second look??? You need to be more aware of the people around you! =)
EEEEEEEEEEEK!! *runs in circles* Those isles look so pretty and appealing and nice : D I wish our stores here would actually care about store appearance.. : / everything's always so messy and not very hygienic. Ugh
Ayumi is so gorgeous!
gosh!! so many japanese stuff there XD!!! they still have the JS mook!! they were sold out quickly here =_= but we still have the Lunasol coffrets lol....

ooo the MM and Kiss Me Heroine stands look enticing! =0 I would buy it all if i could x3
blair :) i couldn't find the comment button this afternoon hahaha XD it's alright now though! yes i realized Canmake always make their LE shades permanent! it happened to the 2 eye jellies 07 and 08 coming out from last year's Xmas, i'm not sure about the cream blushes 02 and 03 though :P i wasn't in HK when they released it, but it seems from the new promo pic that some shades are being DC-ed? (06 Nut Cream)???
The cream highlighter is defo. LE i guess ^_^"" i grabbed the last one lol
Hi Blair,
Thanks for commenting on my blog! I'm responding your your question on my blog, not your post yet, sorry! XD I need proper time to digest and pour over your pictures. ;)
I use Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer in Beige, Medium 0-2.5
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4uiuwPbiXlU/S32vgaGGKxI/AAAAAAAACc4/oaHhm9FzXqg/s1600-h/IMG_4637.JPG
I've used two MAC concealers in the past, NC 35 or NC 40 was what the SA matched me as. I really like the Maybelline one and I hope it works out for you too! :)
i love taking covert pictures! haha
ohh wow so many emooks, definitely more than you'll find here... did you pick up any copies yourself? you should get SWEET nov edition it comes with a p&j makeup bag!! I have it and it's very useful ;)
oh nice stuff, I can't believe Ayumi Hamasaki is still around and she looks exactly the same all these years!!
Wah I love macarons!! Those tasty but expensive, gorgeous colors though haha. One time someone got me soap looking macarons and I was sad it wasn't the sweet treat! XD
I need to move to Asia, shopping there is so much better! Product overload! ^^
love these pictures. wish we have the counters like you do so i can camp in there all the time.
I would love to shop with you! hehe.. every picture calls my name :D
:0) which matte blush did you get recently?
ryc: favourite cream cheek shades are #09 (the new bought one), #01 peach dream (so natural!) and possible #04 vitamin orange because it makes my cheeks look healthy XD
Omg, eyecandy to the max!! I want to shop there haha! :D
Btw sweetie, just letting you know I tagged you in my latest post!
x
heyyy hun, just wanted to drop by to thank you for entering my giveaway :)
good luck love! <3
Blair, i liked your reaction "Is M Pink 33C Matte?" XDD yes it is :) The close relative M Pink 33B has tiny-weeny bit of shimmer but it's unnoticeable when swatched ^^" i see we're on a matte blush kick..
I would love to meet up with you and tons of other bloggers too! It was so much fun showing people around XD
I'd post swatches and reviews of the canmake blushes later (probably after my exams on 9th Dec LOL) i've made a note about it, hehe. Which of the cream blushes do you have by them?
And I haven't even stepped foot into our Uniqlo here.... they have some really pretty winter coats and sweaters....
And Japanese magazines....I don't even remember the last time I step into Kinokuniya....
what happened to me? ;)
Haha, sure sure! I've found out a few place for macaroon-ing :D
It is strange that uniqlo would sell thick clothing in Southeast Asia...
You make yourself to Uniqlo..So i guess the raves is finally over? No more crazy queue huh? I'm now super duper addicted to e-mooks after I got the first one. Those GWP magazine are truly amazing though.. I got myself the heavy rotation gel liner and it went OOS in Watson at my place. Awesome dear, you should get it too.. :p
Blair!<3
I've never really used cleansing gels as I don't find them effective in removing make-up. I've only used one so far and it's from Boots. Its called the Brightening Cleansing Gel (I think). It's a nice cleanser, but not that great at removing make-up. I hear Dr ci:Labo has a decent gel cleanser as well as Clarins. Maybe try those out & see how it works? Sorry if I'm no help, lol. (:
Kate Moss is Rimmel's UK spokesperson right? I picked up a couple of things because of her haha
HK perfume ?! lol.. everything is Hello kittyfied.. lol.. We don't have a Watson's here.. but I'm sure everything is super duper cute over there... lol..
hey B! thanks for going undercover just to snap up some pics and share them with us, you deserve a diligent blogger award. I should make a badge for that! XD
LOL i bought the December issue of Sweet because of the GWP X_x it was so heavy!!!! :{
*tears up*
Everytime I see the Lunasol Holiday coffret I have to bite my lip and remind myself no more makeup spendings! EEp!
