I haven't had posted about KATE's latest collection before. But this time, I'm very interested in two of its collection for A/W 2016. Let's see what KATE will launch on 1st August.

Your Lip Only Gloss is a popular lipgloss from Canmake that can change lip color to create your own lipgloss according to moisture. The color is bluish red / pink, but it depends on the situation & pigmentation on your lips. That's why the tag is "a lip color that's unique to you". More detail is on the website. There are three colors right now, 01 is a clear gloss that will turn blue-ish red/pink, 02 is the same color as 01 but with glitter, and 03 is a purple/ darker pink shade. There is a limited 04 Black Change color that will turn your lips/lipstick to darker color (ex: if your lipstick is cherry red, it will turn to plum red by topping with the lipgloss).


But it's a limited edition and already unsold, except if try looking on some online shop. But if you still want it, Coupy Design still has some or try the jet black one also from Coupy. And Kanebo KATE has also launched a new Color Sensor Lip Tint that has black shade.-Should I say I'm interested to buy one is RS-1 and the new eyeshadow Dark Night Glow? And somewhile ago there are black, blue, and yellow lipgloss trend in Japan.

It's summer! And many good films came out at this season, especially in Japan. Since there will be summer vacation and all coming up. Currently, I'm watching 12 anime series, 3 J-doramas, and 2 K-dramas. Anyway, this time, I'll suggest the current dramas I'm watching, taking note if it's good or not. Reminder: I will update and adding more review each time I found something new in this post. So I posted an unfinished page here, sorry. But I don't care. I should inform you of a new, promising dramas so you won't be outdated.

Flaring Curl Mascara is said to create perfect curl with long lasting staying power. The color is not real black, but a brown that's virtually deep black. There is only one color, the Chocola Black. And Lip & Cheek Gel is like an improved formula from Cream Cheek. It's still can be used on both cheek & lips like the previous product.

Do you know about blue lipgloss? After Canmake Your Lip Only Gloss in black (limited), Japan is in rave for blue lipgloss. It gives blue sparkling shines, which is different than pink or red. The famous & expensive blue gloss is from RMK Lip Jelly Gloss #03 Baby Blue for 2,376Y on the picture below:


But don't worry. Coupy Design by Decora Girl also produced blue lipgloss. In darker shade though. But still has similar sparkles for 1,296Y. You can watch Sara Sawano Youtube for Coupy Design Milkyway Blue Lipgloss:


If you do think that Coupy Design's blue is not suitable for yourself, Mikipon has made a DIY blue lipgloss video below:


That's it for the latest information about Japan's culture. I will update more if I find anything else. Oh yeah, in case you have enough time and a creative person, you can watch Surero's channel DIY Konnyaku-batake Jelly Resin Charm here:

This is a lotion that can act as a moisturizer for face & body. Recently, my hands skin are very dry because I have OCD to wash my hands & work in cold air-conditioned room afterwhat. I need something to moisturize it, but not sticky like a hand cream. When I found this at Aeon Mall BSD (to buy big sale Osewaya's earrings), I tried to put the lotion on my hand. It feels hydrating, cooling off, a good item. And in the end, I bought the full 500ml bottle for Rp 98.500,-! It's quite a deal.

I found this old liquid rouge on a few Youtube channels such as haruxnyan, SekineRisa, Momopiyo, and Sara Sawano as summer color makeup theme. I've been in lost to choose between 101 Rose Melody that Sekine Risa wore or 102 Rose Finale in Sara Sawano video. But finally got the 102 Rose Finale because I want an obvious rouge and confused if 101 Rose Melody would be too sheer like the Shine Caresse Tint. Though in the end, I finally grabbed the 101 later. This liquid rouge is already available since 2014 or before, though. But I just found it lately from Youtube. I'm glad I bought Shine Caresse Tint, but I don't like the smell. It's acid-y and a bit sour on my tongue. That weird sensation gives me the urge to try another liquid rouge / lip gloss from L'oreal.

BCL is a makeup brand from Japan. Comes here by the famous Browlash EX for eye makeup. BCL actually has Clear Last and Tsururi as their famous makeup brand other than Browlash EX. Don't forget the Lovetulle long / volume mascara which has scent. I have black Slim Gel Liner from Visee so I wish another gel pencil in brown color. Browlash EX Slim Gel Pencil Liner Brown is a 2mm gel liner in round shape.
