HadaLabo is an extremely popular collection of skincare produced by Japanese brand, Rohto. One of the things that makes the brand so popular is that promise that their “super” Hyaluronic Acid can hold and retain moisture in the skin than regular Hyaluronic Acid.
Hyaluronic Acid is hugely popular at the moment in most all skincare products and heck even some makeup items. It really does help skin to retain moisture while hydrating it and keeping it soft.
Needless to say HadaLabo has captured all that is great about Hyaluronic Acid and placed it in some very effective skincare products.
But someone needs to teach them how to make a facial mask.

I love me some facial cotton from Shiseido but I love Lily Bell Patting Cotton Puffs even more.
Hey, you might think that all cotton is unlike but it isn’t, trust me.
The best kind comes from Japan.
For serious!

KATE is a Japanese line of cosmetics sold under the Kanebo brand name. With brands like Lavshuca under their belt I’d say that KATE proves the more edgy in the Kanebo family with a range of bolder shades of color.
They recently introduced a few new concealers and revised formulas of concealers to their catalog, well, perhaps not that recently as its been several months since I purchased some of the new items.
Let’s take a look at the KATE Stick Concealer.

Shiseido Anessa is one my absolute favorite products for Summer fun in the sun. It offers great protection at SPF 50 and wears quite well under extreme conditions such as a day at the beach or the pool.
I’m delighted that they have a brand new BB Cream that recently launched in Japan. This is available in two shade and offers an SPF 50 as well.
I’m quite eager to get my hands on it so expect a review soon. I’m having a friend who lives Tokyo grab me one up but keep your eyes on Adambeauty.com as I’m sure he’ll get it shortly at a very reasonable price.
Visit www.shiseido.co.jp if you’d like to explore the Anessa Collection.

Although I’ve reviewed Jill Stuart Jelly Eye Color a few times already, I thought I’d haul out the very delightful, limited edition shade, Bird Flutter, for a swatch and a play today.
I’m obsessed with all things coral and peach particularly when Spring and Summer hit and this is a lovely shade of peachy coral that shouldn’t be missed. This shade is also one of the more vibrant ones I’ve seen in this range since the Jelly Eye Colors normally favor lighters shades of gold, pink, etc…
Take a look!

BRTC, a cult favorite BB Cream creator, is known in Korea for some of its great Blemish Balm creams as well as their great skincare.
Having tried many of their BB Creams and skincare products I felt very confident that I’d love their sheet masks but so far I’m terribly shocked I haven’t had any great success with them.
I checked out one of the Multi-Vital earlier this month and disliked it and recently I’ve been using their Rice Stem Cell Mask and have experienced similiar disappointment.
What the heck?
