Shopping for makeup in Japan is so fun. I loved how every single store that stocks makeup has testers, even regular drugstores (this is completely unheard of in the U.S).
I’m visiting Japan next month and planning to do some makeup shopping, so this is super helpful! I probably will have to spend hours in that store because I’m super indecisive 😂
There are also some other really good drugstore brands such as Coffret dor, primavista, esprique, ettuisais, excel, kate. I really like their products!
@@monaxiu1312 I love Excel, KATE, and Canmake, but haven’t tried many other J-beauty brands! There are Ettusais eyeshadow duos I’m eyeing right now, but otherwise I’ll probably have to go there and browse around to decide!
finally researching japanese bangs changed my bangs game forever lol. i really like the oil soaking papers that are similar to the face papers but they make them for bangs now looking forward to seeing if any of these make your faves!!! lol to your last point my husband and i keep on saying we need to travel to new places but we always just want to keep on returning to japan lol it's an actual problem
Thanks so much for this video! I'm going to Japan next month and I didn't know this place existed! I also didn't notice that canmake makes the souffle eyes quad that I LOVE. So I definitely have to go
Testers are important because Japanese people don't really return purchases. Maybe Japanese stores will accept unopened items but I highly doubt they would accept open and/or used items like Sephora and Ulta do.
Love Japanese beauty products!! The Canmake Marshmallow Pressed Powder compact and the Heroine Kissme Long & Curl Mascara are my holy grail products. I use pretty much Heroine for everything to do with my eyelashes: the remover, the lash serum, and also the more natural brown mascara for everyday. Kissme Heroine's eyeliner and BrowLashEx's brow products used to be my holy grails for eyeliner + brow products (Japan makes the best brow and eye products!!!) but ever since I got my brows microbladed i only need to define it with a grayish-brown eyeshadow powder and I switched to Florette's eyeliners (because they just have so many colours!). But I love Japanese makeup. I have a bunch of Canmake's Glow Fleur Cheeks for blushes and Glow Twin Colour for highlight that I use really regularly too.
I really would like to try the Canmake creamy liner in the Plum colour! And the Lululun masks are very nice. Also I'd like to try the Decoret Liposome serum and their eye glow gem skin shadows~ they look ssooo nice. I'm glad you had a good shopping trip. I'd love to go to Cosme or Sasa 💕
Wongjonyo is a makeup brand by Twice’s makeup artist , hence why Momo is the ambassador. So yes, technically Momo wears it. And it is a Korean, as in it is produced by a Korean MUA, but it is mainly for the Japanese market!
So excited that youre making a video here! I loved shopping here during my trip to Japan. I just wanted to mention that you're supposed to pronounce the @ symbol as part of the name! So it should be "at cosme".
I’ll be in Japan at the end of the year and I’m so excited to check out cosme - thanks for all of the recs! Also, just curious but do you have any Japanese grocery stores in NZ? Because in the U.S. all of the japanese grocery stores here sell makeup - canmake and the kiss me are just some of the brands I see all the time.
@j.uuuuudy oh wow that's a lot 😭 i feel like canmake has drugstore prices here, maybe in the under $15 usd range - i remeber seeing those eyeliners for about $10
Do you think you might ever do a video about fringe / bangs maintenance? For 30 years, I’ve had a fringe that needs washing every day, and it drives me spare! Never heard anyone talk about it before. I feel extremely seen.
Hi I’m off to Japan end of May in terms of pricing for skincare and make up would don quote a drug store koseme be cheaper b guessing what you can buy from each stores vary
