Want juicy looking soft sexy lips?

Hi guys,

I've decided to do my first review on product that I've bought from Japan (Okinawa). This is a product that I absolutely adore and love. It's a lip balm produced by Shiseido. It can be purchased in almost every drugstore in Japan, if not definitely in Matsumoto  RiYoshi. I bought my first one previously when I visited Tokyo 2 years ago. It works amazingly well, especially when your lips are super duper dry.
It's actually called Therapino Oil Balm. It's especially designed for night use and dry lips, as stated at the back of the package.

I have been using it during nighttime. A thin layer of it on my lips just before I go to bed every night. It really moisturizes my lips throughout the night, even in winter time when it becomes dry with heaters on. 

It costs about 420yen. It should be more or less the same in every drugstore you could find in Japan. Since I only applied a thin layer on every night, mine lasted around 2 years. It's a worthwhile investment. Do buy one if you have super dry lips or you live in a place where you need to put on heater all the time. 

By the way, I haven't tried purchasing this oil balm online before. So I don't know where you can purchase it online. If you happen to visit Japan in the near future, or you have a friend living in or visiting Japan, you can ask your friend to buy you one.

Disclaimer: The oil balm was purchased by myself.

Feel the sunshine

Did anyone ever told you that whenever you go on a vacation that you will practically gain weight? Well I just experienced gaining an extra few pounds after coming back from Japan. The food there is just so yummy that you can't resist it, seriously, especially the ice-cream. Well, I went to Okinawa and the famous food there is basically sugar cane and salt. Have you ever tried the sugar mixed with salt? I did! It just felt so weird, but weirdly amazingly good! You should try if anyone of you read this visit Okinawa in the future. 
This is second largest aquarium in the world. It's just so breath taking!
 The sea is just as blue as the sky! Dun you just want to jump into the sea and swim?
Now, this is what I am talking about salt. You can basically see salt-related products everywhere. I tried 2 kinds of salt ice-cream and I think this shop sells the best salt ice-cream.

Now, I have to do extra exercise everyday to loose all those gained weight from Okinawa. But still, strongly recommended to visit this amazing place in the summer.
