Hello beautiful,
I love to check out Japanese fashion style , hair style and makeup pictorial.When I think of Japanese style, I would say Kawaii (cute), of course they have a lot style but cute style is what come to my mind first. They can match everything from the hair to the makeup, their clothing, shoes and bag and overall they are very into the details like every blings count and they match up so that they can get perfect look. Japanese girl will wear makeup to show their respect to others.
Talking about makeup, they have tons of makeup cosmetic selling with very cute packaging too.
Every packaging of their makeup product, they design it and make you feel pretty from the moment you see the product, you can already imagine yourself with that makeup on. You can't resist the beautiful packaging and you feel like buying everything.
In Malaysia, I don't think a lot of choices of Japanese makeup brand available. But now I think we can easily get Japanese cosmetic from Tokyo Luxe. I'm so excited to talk about this online website that provides beauty box.
I recently received a gift box from Tokyo Luxe, which I'm so happy ! woot woot! It's actually like a beauty box. And the products in the box, are all from Japanese brand makeup and skincare product. So basically most of the brand they included is famous brand in Japan, but they are not available for sale here in Malaysia. So let's us see what's in the box that I got.
I'll start with skincare product first.
Make It&Co- Wash Oil
For sensitive skin
It's an all-in-one makeup remover, face wash and moisturiser. So you just apply a good amount of product to your face or body, and with circular motion, then add water and it will emulsify, then you wash it. It is recommended to use it twice daily.
My review:
Pros:
- smell really good contains essential oil
- suitable for sensitive skin
- can remove makeup
- the texture of the oil more to watery type and really easy to work on the face, I really like the texture of it because sometimes oil based cleanser doesn't make me comfortable to use, becuase it's feel oily, but this one is more to watery type so it's good.
- after you add water, it emulsify and it leaves the skin very smooth and brighten up the skin, another thumbs up
- It can be use for body as well
con:
- not directly to the product, but it come in a travel size in this gift box so I don't know where to get it, but I think soon Tokyo luxe will be selling their product on their website.
Overall, I like this wash oil, I love the texture of this oil based cleanser, and it doesn't dry up my skin. It leave smooth and brighten skin after wash.
Overal, I like the scent of this cleanser it make me calm while 'm cleansing my face. But I'm not really a big fan of oil based cleanser, because my it will dry up my skin.

Make it &Co-Premium Gel
This is an anti ageing gel, it help the skin look and feel more soft, supple and younger. It contains Macadamia nut oil which is excellent anti ageing properties due to its richness in anti oxidant and vitamins. Also included Rose floral water for toning effects.
My review:
Pros:
- After I apply it on my skin, it doesn't feel greasy
-quickly absorb
- It's a moisturiser, and I think it has fair moisture level
- the texture is more between creamy gel type, it's cooling and glides on easily
Con:
- The moment I apply it on my face, I don't like the smell of it, but the smell didn't stay longer
Overall, I think it's quite okay as a moisturizer, not really sure if it can really help with anti ageing, but it's a fine moisturizer that doesn't feel too rich or too oily although it targeting anit ageing. It does leave smooth and soft feeling after used.
