i have previously mentioned how much i love going to drugstores in other countries.  i didn’t do much research on the best things to buy in a japanese  drugstore ahead of time because it wasn’t a top priority in terms of trip planning,  however, on our last morning, i decided to pop into a store near our hotel.  this is what i came home with.

the d.up liquid liner is literally the best i have ever used.  there is no dragging, and the line is super thin and dark.  i also got some false eyelashes from the same brand to play with, because i heard that japanese falsies are much higher quality than what you can find in america.  the transino skincare has been pretty good so far at lightening my dark spots.
