Omg. When I came here it was so packed and so overwhelming. That's so nice they let you film this prior to them opening cause there's no way you could've done this while they are open lol.
I'm wondering what the prices are like compared to places like MatsuKiyo and Donki. Online reviews suggest it's slightly overpriced so in that case, I'll enjoy a browse but will most likely make my purchases elsewhere. I can always return if I can't find the products I liked elsewhere. It's right near Harajuku station so I can make a last-day-in-Tokyo glory run there, ha! 😅💰💰🛒🛍
You would need more than an hour if you are the type of person that likes to swatch/sniff/skin test products 🤭. Have your husbands/bf’s wait outside. My husband was grumpy after waiting for 1.5 hours 🫣
Wow I can't believe you got the whole store to yourself! Love this content- I want to get more into current J-beauty, but not many influencers focus on it, so I really appreciate your perspective!
I'm going to Japan in about a month and I now know where I'm going. My poor friend will suffer as I will be dragging here either to the Harajuku shop or the Nagoa one. My poor wallet too.
OMG! I wish I knew about this place earlier. We were there in November and again in April. I live in Hawaii. Don't know when our next trip will be. I appreciate your tour of COSME. Can't wait to get back to Japan!
21:06 absolutely yes. Living in the states, the eyelash curlers I used were always super uncomfortable and didn't match my eyes. Now, I only buy asian brand eyelash curlers and they work so much better for my eye shape
Hi Tina, THANK YOU for such a fun and helpful video. I especially appreciated the little icons on the upper left of the screen detailing what it was you were pointing out. It really helped me with my shopping list haha
I love the aesthetic look and so neat. What I found interesting was all the products in the higher end section had small amounts of stock (helped the aesthetic look) and also the reviews being included was something I’ve never seen before but would be helpful to have when buying high end. Also I feel like I’d want to buy that whole entire store 😂😂😂 everything looks so captivating! Tina buys or recommend, I’d go there and buy it all lol
A note about point makeup: maybe it's the same "point" as korean. Usually if people say "point" it means the focus or emphasis, so maybe since eye and lip makeup is the "main point" or "main focus" of the makeup look, that's what it's referring to?
WHYYYYYYY haven't I heard of this mega store until today?! Thanks Tina, OMG. Another financially ruinous pin to drop on my travel itinerary's google map. 'Yikes!' never felt so good to type. 😃💰💰💰👍
I LOVE Japanese shampoo. I use the Kracie Smoothing and Moist shampoo/conditioner. I have mild psoriasis on my scalp and the conditioner doesn't irritate me. Japanese conditioner is the only conditioner that has never irritated me! I can also very much recommend the Curél shampoo for sensitive people. I use it when my skin is more irritated, I've used the conditioner too, but I tend to use the Kracie one more. Tsubaki is the next shampoo on my hit list. I use the Shiseido eyelash curler, the replacement pads are so cheap in Japan. The same pack is 8$CAD....
Tina i love that youre in japan! i live here and watch your videos for recs so im glad your at cosme! i wanted to sak if you know anything about facials and like beauty treatments here because i really want to try but i dont understand what treatment is for what concern
I'm a sucker for cute packaging too!! 😩I have to physically look the other way when I walk by some cute collabs otherwise I can kiss my money goodbye, specially when the metro station I take every day has a huge drugstore inside...
Amazing tour, thanks for showing us this store! I would definitely need an entire day there. I thought it was interesting that a Revlon product is one of the best sellers, so weird.
Ommmggg! I’m not sure if I was the only person who messaged you about tunemakers, but I saw them in a nearby Japanese cosmetic store near me and I was so curious. The fact that you remembered makes me feel soooo touched! Thanks for remembering and I love all of your content!!!
Love this! I've been in Tokyo for over a year and have yet to go here. Now I'm inspired! I need a physical sunsceen as my skin is super sensitive lately. Any recommendations?
Wow did you get special permission to have to the store to yourself, or did you go really early. ? What a treat that is, to look without crowds of people bumping into you. This place looks amazing, must have a look there next time I’m in Japan . Thanks for all your hard work bringing us this video . ❤
OHTANI!! ❤😍☺️ I'd be more sobbing than feeling exciting being in there if there's no English words on each product/sign because I don't know any Japanese words (well, only a very few like Sugoi and Umai 😂)
I used to buy Bitecki magazine from the Japanese market called Murakai. It was expensive because of the import cost, but it was worth it if you wanted to know what's trending on the cosme and sometimes they had free samples/gifts. I used to track down cosme rankings online. I know a lot of these brands but it's just really expensive.
Next time I visit Japan I'm going to visit this store. It's like Chicor in korea or if Sephora and Olive Young had a baby. I wish I was able to go last year, but I'm glad I waited.
But they are expensive in Japan or they are expensive because of the import taxes? Because if they are expensive for you that have dollars in Japan I will get ready for very low expectations in Japan because my currency is low low
@@simsalabin2796 It's a bit of both. I live in the States, I'm not sure why Japanese VAT and Shipping in or out are so expensive but its been that way for over a decade vs when I buy from South Korea it's usually the shipping I have to only worry about. Australian exchange rates are probably more comparable to Japanese prices online. However when I was in Tokyo before the pandemic the prices on many things were comparable to the US so I would suggest buying as much as you can while you are there and they have a tax free program. I was planning on going to both last year but japan still had restrictions so had to stay in Korea.
I’m from Indonesia and Lunasol was my first ever lipstick I bought when I started working like 15years ago😂 ❤ and it actually healed my very badly chapped lip and made me addicted to lip color even though I don’t wear make up 😅 it’s expensive but worth every penny, I don’t remember what line it was tho dunno it still available or not
Late to this party but loved this tour! It's so cool you got to film inside. Love Anna Sui from back in the day and I have totally splurged on Paul & Joe stuff because CATS. Def want to visit Cosme when I visit Japan!
I can’t wait to see your review of the Kikumasamune Glossy Moist lotion! I think I have a similar skin type to you, and have loved the Bright Moist and High Moist, so I really want to see your thoughts before I commit to it. Great video overall!
wow you got the whole store to yourself for filming, that's awesome! and there's so many brands that are new to me too. I can't wait to shop there when I have the chance to visit Tokyo. thank you for showing us around 💕
I also just started using the whole &honey haircare set (shampoo, treatment, oil) and I LOOOOOOVE IT. The smell is so enjoyable. I am using the deep moist set, but I'm curious about the other lines from &honey now since I'm so impressed. Also, since you saw lots of Korean brands, did you see any makeup from the brand Hera? :o
🌾 Approximately 18:01 Sometimes on lazy, stay at home weekend mornings I wash my face with HATOMUGI skin conditioner because why not ❤😊❤ As long as you're not struggling with something like acne or any serious or painful skin condition, but rather have dry or normal skin you might actually benefit from doing this - it IS a really good product! 🌾
I will save this video so I can refer to it during my next Japan visit and skin care shopping. Great video do more like this with Japanese skincare shops
Thank you for such a fun video, this store is definitely on my to do list when in Tokyo 😃 I'm looking to stock up some of the Japanese skincare products and am interested to purchase Dr. Ci-Labo as well. Do they sell it at @Cosme as well? or any other store you could recommend? Thank you!
Hi Tina, if you are still in Japan, I wonder would you be keen to check out Matsu Yama products for a future video. I have seen them from a Taiwanese RU-vidr so when I saw it at the mall today, I picked up their Amino Acid water. Just googled the ingredients, its simple and good. The other RU-vidr mentioned that their body lotion is the brand's best seller. I have another question, saw the brand &Herb today, wonder if you are aware if that's related to &Honey hair care products? Thank you.
Oh noooo! I watched your videos before going to Japan last month. Once there, I went into every single drug store I passed in search for the nail oil and couldnt find it! Needless to say I passed Cosme Harajuku 5 times but never went in as it looked too posh for me 😂
Amazing video, love your excitement and sheer knowledge 😊, new to your channel do have a video on your top Japanese eye lash serums? Especially ones for sensitive eyes 💕 thank you
