Mascara Can Do So Much For Your Eyes

Welcome to My Japanese Beauty Website!

I am a big fan of the iconic Japanese beauty brand, Kanebo. I have been fortunate enough to try out many of their products and I can confidently say that they are some of the best, if not the best, in their niche. I have also been able to keep up with the very latest products as they come out, so for our readers, this site is a must-read.

But, enough about me, let's get to the good stuff!

On this site, we will be exploring the Buymejapan.com – both popular and lesser known – as well as giving you the tools to recreate the most coveted looks of the Land of the Rising Sun. So, let's get started.

What is the most popular hair product in Japan? Without a doubt, it's the mascara. According to the Japanese Oricon Market Research Bureau (or “Statistiches” in Japanese), there were 76.4 million cosmetic products sold in Japan in 2018. Of these, 69.9 million were make-up products, and the remaining 6.5 million were personal care products. But, it's not just the number of products that matter – it's also about the volume of sales. In 2018, the total revenue was £13.9 billion, an increase of 5.9% from the previous year. The growing trend toward organic and natural products, as well as products for specific uses, like black eyeliners or waterproof mascara, are all factors that may have contributed to this growth.

As one of the most popular hair products in Japan, it's evident that the country's beauty junkies have gotten wise to the benefits of mascara. The long list of pros includes:

• clutter-free eyes (no more smudged eye makeup due to tiredness or overuse)
• flattering eyes (it makes your eyes look more open)
• additional eye color (some people even use it to highlight their green eyes)
• smoothing effect (it reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines)
• shape-retaining (mascara can help keep the shape of your eyes)
• plumping effect (it helps restore the natural volume to your eyelashes)
• frees your eyebrows from bondage (no more overuse of wax or thread)
• and many more…

Yes, mascara can do so much for your eyes. Not to mention that it can also be a weapon in your beauty arsenal. You may not need to have a spray tan anymore – with mascara, you'll be able to pass for a professional before you even step out of the shower!

It doesn't hurt that mascara is extremely easy to use. All you need is a quick brush through your lashes and voila, instant eyeshadow – at least, that's what the makers of the Ouai mascara would have you believe. In reality, the procedure is a little more complex. First, you need to mix a small amount of water with your eye makeup to create a slightly thicker paste. Then, with a clean brush, sweep from the outside corner of your eye to the inside corner. Don't be afraid to go a little far – you're aiming to make your eyes look bigger, not tighter, so take it easy until you master the technique. And last, but not least, make sure to blink a lot to keep your eyes open and prevent the lashes from going limp.

While we're on the subject of eye makeup, I would like to discuss skin perfecting products, like lip fillers and lip glosses, for those of you who wish to tackle puffiness and dark circles. Let's be honest, no one looks their best in the mirror, if you've got bags under your eyes or dark circles, so it's important to find a way to conceal and perfect your skin. And what's more, with the right products, you can have fun with your makeup while also improving your appearance.

If you're not sure where to begin, why not try out the Lancome Releve de Volumizer? At only £36 for a 0.7 fl oz (21 mL) bottle, it's a great alternative to costly eye treatments. You can also use your lip gloss to settle your skin before starting your makeup routine. Some people prefer to use a primer before applying their gloss, but many find that lip gloss works just as well.

One of the best things about this product is that it can be used to even out your skin tone. Using a lip gloss that is a little too dark or light, depending on your complexion, can result in you looking like two people. But with the Lancome product, you'll appear to blend in with the mirror, creating a flawless finish. And let's face it, no one wants to look like a split person when you're going out for drinks with friends or need to look your best for an important meeting. Even if it's just for a day, you'll want to make sure that your skin looks as good as new.

So, how does Lancome's Releve de Volumizer fare against some of its competitors? Well, in terms of price, it's on the higher side. However, at a glance, you may be fooled into thinking that it costs more. For example, the Too Faced Better Than Ever Primer + Hydrating Cream in 3.5 oz (115 mL) can be acquired for £38.50. But keep in mind: the bottle size affects the overall price. A 0.7 fl oz (23 mL) bottle of the Lancome product will set you back £36. If you want to get a feel for the differences, try out a 0.7 fl oz (23 mL) sample at first and see if you like it. You may not need to purchase the entire bottle after all.

For those of you who enjoy a spray tan but are worried about the chemicals involved, you can rest assured that the best option available is safe for you to use. Yes, we're talking about the Glitter Bomb Pop Soothing Mist! It's not your typical spray tan. The unique thing about this product is that it doesn't consist of pure tanning oil. Instead, it contains a base of water and silicone, which allows it to cling to your skin for longer with every spray. This, in turn, gives you a more natural looking tan.

What's more, the mist itself is also designed to be more comfortable. It's almost like the makers of Glitter Bomb wanted to create a spray that you wouldn't hate. Is it perfect? No, but it's not meant to be. That's why it's safe for you to use and it won't clash with your existing makeup. This is one product that you will want to keep close at hand, not only for its practical uses but also to add a little touch of magic to your everyday life.

We've all been there. We've seen a gorgeous girl, and we just know that if we work hard enough, we can become as good as her. Unfortunately, as we've all learned from past experience, this is rarely the case. To make your hair stand out, you need to do two things: first, find the right hair products and, second, work hard to make them do their job.

If you're not quite sure where to begin, why not try out the Hair Paradise Hydro Cream? At only £17 for a 125 mL bottle, it's a great starter kit for those of you who wish to experiment with different textures. You can also use this product to repair damage from heat exposure or overuse. Just make sure to use the right heat protectant before using the Hydro Cream – some can leave your hair greasy and heavy. Also, don't expect this product to give you bouncy hair. It will not. But it will make your hair look healthy and shiny.

If you want to take your hair game to the next level, you may want to invest in some good quality hair wavers. These are like hair dryers on steroids and can really pump up the volume. The best part is that they're relatively affordable considering how much volume they can deliver, making them ideal for both professional and personal use. The Behold Hair Waver, for example, can cost up to £350, and it can shoot up to 3.5 liters of air per minute! This is a significant investment and, quite honestly, it's not something that you'd want to buy for your own personal use.
