Hi Everyone, I called Chanel for several questions today. I wanted to ask if Cambon Pressed Powder was available. https://store.fudejapan.com/products/cn-lc?_pos=1&_psq=chanel%20pow&_ss=e&_v=1.0 I sold all of my stock, and I wondered if it was still available.

Hi Everyone, As you may know, I am located in Shibuya, so three or four department stores are within a walking distance. It sounds easy, right? But, it takes some energy to go to the makeup sections of the department stores. I can feel that male customers are not welcomed, as we don’t look like…

Hi Everyone, I received a call from Hakuhodo. I had an order of 4 x G5558, and one of them was not made as it should have been. There is the Hakuhodo Standard which they need to follow, and they have the quality-check division. But the right one was sharper than the others, and the…

Hi Everyone, I read an interesting blog by a foreigner living in Japan. ‘Entrepreneurs in Japan complain it is difficult to find a girlfriend.
