2021 Tokyo Central Fukubukuro

On New Years Day, I bought another fukubukuro (lucky bag) from Tokyo Central. This one is strictly beauty products. The back has a photo display of the products inside with a little disclaimer that some products are subject to change. Here's the reveal.

2021 Mitsuwa Fukubukuro

Mitsuwa Martketplace had 2021 fukubukuro available. They offered 3 different types: kids, beauty, and regular. I picked up the regular one. I honestly can't remember the price. I'm guessing it was around $50. Once I opened it, the contents were mainly beauty stuff. I don't mind but what's the point of the beauty fukubukuro ? LOL!

2021 Happy New Year

Happy New Year for those who are still subscribed to this blog. It's been a while. Sometime back in 2020 I guess I tried to blog but then my mac laptop died with all my adobe programs so I lost motivation to blog. I'm currently using a chromebook to start blogging again. I set a goal for myself. If I can keep this up without disappearing for long period of time, I'll buy a laptop or desktop. lolz

New Years Eve
I worked and then left to pick up some chicken and pizza for dinner. Did some osouji (new year cleaning) and went to sleep. I woke up with massive texts from friends and coworkers but then later feel back asleep. Meh. 

New Years Day
I woke up early so I can go to Tokyo Central to pick up some sashimi and ingredients for shabu-shabu. I picked up a $30 beauty fukubukuro (lucky bag). Afterwards, I went to Mitsuwa to see if they had new year decorations in which I picked up another $50 fukubukuro. The reveal will be in the next post. I need to sleep now or else I'll be a zombie at the office. Goodnight.

NMNL July 2019

Can't believe it's already mid-July. Time goes by fast when you don't want it to. I received this box end of June, took pictures then forgot about it. Ugh typical. I'm going to try and upload the other past boxes. Everything gets delayed when you live in a dark place. My next future place better have more lighting.


About the box
NMNL (No Makeup No Life) is a monthly subscription service that contains 8-9 Japanese and Korean beauty or skincare products. Starting price is $35 per month. It's cheaper if you sign up with a longer plan.

Disclaimer: I'm not sponsored. This comes out of pocket.

Gift from Sayuri

So my best friend Sayuri, who now lives in New York, came back from a recent trip to Japan. She sent me a package containing omiyage (souvenir)!

I actually requested Starbucks Japan tumbler. They release limited items once a year during the Sakura season. I'm so happy she got me one. I already ate the Kit Kats and Hawaiian chocolates lol.

I can't wait to try the beauty products and sip Hojicha Latte in my new tumbler.

Thank you again Sayuri!
