    I had a feeling it was going to be some sort of random detergent, but I think its probably body lotion or hand soap because of the pump.

    This is recisely part of the reason why i normally avoid Japanese products!!! and i can read some japanese too! if i don’t know what’s put in the products, i’d be worried about it’s going to be used on any part of my body… most of them don’t have translation for of the ingredients.

    I voted for hand soap because of the foamy looking thing with the arrow. But maybe I’m just kracie naive. 😉

    It says “conditioner” right on the bottle, so it’s sort of hard for me to make a guess. lol

    Naive is also a very common drugstore brand.

    I have that! It was body wash. 🙂 I used it all up and filled it up with Head and Shoulders (I even moved the sticker from the H&S bottle). It confused my sisters, “hey i didn’t head and shoulders made round bottles. i want one!” hahaha 🙂

    I love Japanese products, the packaging is always so cute and the product is usually amazing too.

    I believe it’s conditioner–I can read Japanese, and I can understand it for the most part, LOL. I love their cleanser, since it thoroughly cleans my face (it’s a little drying, though). The body wash is nice, too.

    Hi Ladies!

    This one was easy for the girls who can read Japanese, but for those of you who can’t (I’m one of ya), it was substantially tougher, LOL!

    It’s a bottle of conditioner. 🙂

    pretty sure it’s facial cleanser. I’ve seen it before and it comes in several other scents~ Never given it a try though because people say it doesn’t do much getting makeup off 🙁

    My guess is a shampoo or conditioner. It looks very Suave-ish. The brand that is. Except a stylin’ Japanese version. 🙂

    Hey stranger! How are you these days?
    I wish we were able to get cute japanese products here in texas!

    Off the subject but I found my new favorite mascara today…maybelline stiletto!! Girl, it ROCKS! It is very similar to Lancome Definicils but not as $$!

    I am in LOVE, and I buy a new mascarra every week!

    I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

    haha. I see you like to snoop around the Japanese store as well. I knew it was either shampoo or conditioner from my ventures down that aisle. I’ve always been curious about their conditioners w/ camelia oil since I know they are in the Shu Moisturizing conditioners. But I can’t ever read the rest of ingredients….

    It’s conditioner. (I read it) But I would’ve never guessed that it was a conditioner if I can’t read Japanese.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
