A few people have asked me about this, as I was interviewed recently for a New York Times Interview about my obsession with Japanese cosmetics. The blog got a really nice mention – you can read it here.
It’s been a funny old week, but I have realised with the love of your family and cats, you can kick arse. Here’s a picture of a cat kicking arse:

I own three Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Supreme Shines in total, in a pink, a lilac and a glossy red. Cut a long story short: Pros: Gorgeous texture, gorgeous colour, just gorgeous to wear Cons: Not longwearing, expensive and the packaging! I don’t usually have a problem with the plastic casing of Shu Uemura Lipsticks [...]
People are brow obsessed these days, right? Plucking, threading, brushing, trimming, tweezing…wait, that’s the same as plucking. Oh and shaving. Do you do it? Do you have your brows?! Back in the olden days, when I first realised I had big brows (teenage years of course) I found tweezing way to painful, so I shaved [...]
Great Gift For: Mum, Friends, Work Colleagues/ Stocking Fillter What You Get: Some really cool tea, its good for you (better than normal tea and coffee) and it looks nice. Notes: I love Whole Rose tea but its very floral. I also recommend Oolong and Jasmine tea. I am a BIG fan of loose leaf [...]

Good job!
Thanks Tigers!
Hi, I came over from the NYTimes article. I have really been enjoying all of your archives. I have always been frustrated with “Western” makeup, especially mascara (everything makes my lashes flop – I have short, thin lashes) and I’ve been reading with interest all of your reviews on Japanese makeup. I live in Chicago and we have a Japanese supermarket in the suburbs that we make it to every few weeks or so. I noticed when I was there yesterday that they have a makeup section which I never paid attention to before. Next time I go, I’ll be armed and ready. Keep up the great work!

p.s. what is your favorite mascara so far?
Hi Pam! Thanks for coming over!
At the moment I like SANA Gaaafix but it’s a bit flaky. I can’t tell you how fussy I am about mascara – I still haven’t found “The One” x
I also came over from the NYTimes and, after working in Singapore for 5 months last year, I’m pleased to see the word getting out on Asian cosmetics. Love the blog….so much good information!!
