 I took a trip to Mitsua Marketplace in Chicago suburbs in March. I was disappointed at how small the selection in the beauty section was (the toy selection was worse!) and I haven't ever tried Japanese cosmetics, so I just picked out one of the cutest cheaper items in case I didn't like it -$6.50. Different colors were different prices and I picked the black one with the silver glitter.
I first tried it on my hand, and it's a deep black color with a little bit of silver glitter. Cute.
The best part about this however, is that it is actually long-lasting! After I drew a line on my hand, it stayed there faintly -even after I tried to rub it out- for hours! It's easy to draw on and it stays on.

  1. Hello there! C:
    I was browsing the internet, trying to find information about korean/japanese cosemtic brands and animal testing, that's how I stumbled across one of your comments, which implies that you're against animal testing
    however, I just wanted to ask if you perhaps know if brands like koji, lioele, holika holika, candy doll etc etc test their products on animals?

    1. I'm not sure about Koji, but I am looking into it. Unsure about candy doll as well. Holika Holika will not respond to requests for information, and Lioele definitely test on animals. I will be removing all reviews that do test and boycotting those companies. Thanks!
