Donki loots ♥


In the previous post, I introduced the wonderful Donki, so now this post's gonna be about the wonderful things I hauled from there^^ This is a combination of 4~5 trips to Donki? Each time I step in I feel the itch to try something new (´౪`)

Condensed version in the video!
First time shooting a video, didn't think the sound would be that soft^^ Yeahhh, my camera has a front screen so I'm actually looking at that instead of the lens, so, sorry if I don't seem focused!


This bunch is from my first Donki trip
They didn't have all the types of Fairy Lash at that branch.


Hada Labo bunch
Skin Conditioner, BB Cream and BB Emulsion, both in Natural Beige.


Hada Labo Skin Conditioner
I think this is travel-size/sample-size, it's 40ml. I've checked the website and the full size is 170ml, the refill is 150ml. This is supposed to be a medicated toner I think?


Nail polishes by Beauty World
Champagne Nail Cocktail trio, Blossom Nail Cocktail trios and Glossy Top Coat. I LOVEEE the top coat! It makes your nails super glossy and "juicy" that they really look like gel nails (The product description is "like gel nails")


Nail polishes by pa. Mermaid polishes!
The flakes inside make them look like little scales when painted on.


K-Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner 24h WP in limited edition PINK!


And as part of the Cheer Project it came with a CD with the campaign's song.


Side-by-side with the normal version.
At first I saw the Pink version in the normal packaging when I first stepped into Donki, so I grabbed one. But as I walked further in I saw the Pink version in bigger packaging (with CD) and they were the same price, so why not get the one with the CD?


Candy Doll Makeup Base in 01 and Candy Doll Concealer in 01.


AC Finishing Powder in Multi-Natural

This is Multi-Natural (for normal~dark skin), the other version's Light Natural (light~normal) I think? I got the darker version so that I can try to have a "tanned" look haha. Anyway I LOVE this powder, it finishes matte, no shimmers! (´౪`)


Produced by AngelColor, makers of popular karacon. (Colored contact lenses)


It has 30g of product and retails for 1,890yen. Not discounted even at Donki.


Color comparison with Chacott Powder. Chacott has some fine shimmers.


Chacott was also 30g for 1,890yen.


Samourai Woman Premium Rose Aromatic Eau de Parfum.
I don't know how they do it, but perfumes in Donki are extremely discounted, even cheaper than Duty Free prices! (Same for alcohol, it's also cheaper at Donki than the airport if anyone's wondering
(`・ω・´ ))

This supposedly retails for 5,250yen, but was only 2,480yen at Donki. Ferragamo's Incanto perfumes were also cheaper at Donki than the airport, I noticed because I bought 2x30ml bottles of Incanto Shine for SGD$91 at Changi Airport's Duty Free, but at Donki a 30ml bottle was 2,000+yen. (SGD$30+).

So if you wanna buy perfumes or liquor, go to Donki instead of Duty Free! You can claim tax-exemption too if you spend over s certain amount.


Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow in Light Ash and Light Brown.

Different colors for when my hair is differently colored. I actually wanted to get the Palty brow mascars, but I didn't buy them the first time I saw them, forgot which drugstore sold them, and Donki didn't have them (´Д` ) So got Heavy Rotation instead.

Eyelash Laboratory, aka EyeLabo lashes. Retails for 1,050yen, was 980yen at the Ikebukuro and Shibuya Donkis, 798yen at the Shinjuku Donki. Close-up pictures in my lash haul/lash sighting post.


EOTD with EyeLabo's Sexy Doll 002 and Natural Angel 003.
You can see all the lashes I bought in Tokyo here.


Toujours lashes produced by Murata Mari, aka Marimo.


Candy Style lashes, often featured in Egg. 198yen per pair!


Nature is Lovely lashes in S-1 and S-2, produced by Donki.


Rosette Face Pasta. Lifting type with white clay.
The other version available was the moisturizing type with seaweed, in a green tube.


SANA Hadanomy Collagen Mist! I LOVE THIS! (´౪`)
Just a few spritzes and it really moisturizes and makes your skin look and feel soft and hydrated.


Retails for 900yen, but was 698yen at Donki.


Limited Edition Dolly Wink Set.


Lash cases


Heart-shaped Hello Kitty lash case has a mirror inside and attached charm!


These have multiple sections.
The sectioner is a plastic sheet which can be removed.


A leopard-print case.


Limited Edition Donki-Exclusive Luminous Change, produced by Itabashi Rumi.


The ever-distinctive yellow Donki shopping bag.

Lists their website, www.donki.com, which you can visit to find out the location of their branches.

I know I've said this many times, but Donki really is a great place to explore and discover different products You really should visit at least one if you ever go to Japan q( ´∀` )ノ

Lash Sightings in Tokyo ♥

Tokyo was a lash paradise! q( ´∀` )ノ There were sooo many brands and varieties of lashes, almost all of which looked nice and were packaged nicely. Even the "lower end" lashes weren't bad, they even had clear/thin lash bands and decent curl.

In Singapore, the cheaper types really have no quality, lash bands are thick, lashes are straight/no curl and extremely plastic looking. And the packaging is usually ugly too. So needless to say, I took a lot of pictures of the piles of lashes I saw~ (`・ω・´ )☆

ドン・キホーテ Donkihote, aka Donki, sells lots of lashes at discounted prices, except for those produced by models which usually are fixed price almost wherever you go, unless there's a closing down sale or something. Examples of relatively fixed-price brands are Dolly Wink, Diamond Lash, Jewerich, Eyemazing, Melliesh etc. Mostly model-produced ones.


First off, spotted at Kokumin, Jumily.
This is produced by Jelly model 高橋真依子 Takahashi Maiko, also known as Maichi.


They retail at 2 pairs for 1,050yen.
Most of the designs seem unique, I totally regret not getting any to try!


There are 6 different types:
No.1 - Exte Eyes
No.2 - 3Way Eyes
No.3 - Girly Eyes
No.4 - Cat Eyes
No.5 - Basic Eyes
No.6 - Dolly Eyes


Canmake lashes, 525yen per pair. 藤井リナ Fuji Lena is the face of the brand.
Also saw Dolly Wink, which was like everywhere.

Shelf of D.U.P. and other random brands at Donki. The 3 Donkis I went to (池袋, 渋谷, 新宿) each have at least 5 entire shelves dedicated to lashes alone! I didn't snap all though...most of the time my hands were full^^

Luminous Change produced by Edge Style model 板橋瑠美 Itabashi Rumi. 1,155yen for 5 pairs. Saw this at a MatsuKiyo in Takeshita Doori. I've introduced these lashes here.


Saw them at Donki too.



盛りGirl Mori Girl lashes. 298yen per pair at Donki.


They're considered lower end but they still look pretty decent!
Especially compared to the ones I see in Singapore.

Another lash shelf at the Donki in Shibuya. Chocola Co, Cheercil, Tsukema Eye, Disney Princess, Mink Fur, Premium Lash etc. And a misplaced box of Sakurina's Fairy Lash^^

Donki was my lash heaven! I spent hours thronging through the shelves of lashes and cosmetics and miscellaneous goods stacked high to the ceiling.


Eyelash Laboratory aka EyeLabo! Sold exclusively at Donki. Introduced these here before. The designers/producers of this brand are Popteen models 椎名ひかり Shiine Hikari, 秋山未来 Akiyama Miku and 河西美希 Kawanishi Miki. There are 24 different types.

These retail at 5 pairs for 1,050yen, but it was on discount at the Ikebukuro and Shibuya Donkis for 980yen. But at the Shinjuku Donki it was 798yen! Too bad I already grabbed what I wanted from the Shibuya Donki :(

Eyelash Value Pack, pack of 5 for 1,260yen, comes with glue. Astrea V. and D.U.P to the left.


Tsuji-chan lashes, produced by former MoMusu member 辻希美 Tsuji Nozomi.
5 pairs for 1,260yen. I don't know what the official name for these lashes are, all the labels and tags in the stores call it "Tsuji-chan false lashes". Spotted at a MatsuKiyo.


Spotted the 2pair pack at Donki, on discount for 578yen per pack.


Cheercil lashes going for 328yen at Donki. Original price is 399yen.


Decorative Eyelash in cute blue heart-shaped boxes!


つけま♥アイTsukema Eye/Love, 3 pairs for 598yen in Donki.
There are red boxes and gold boxes.


仮面 (Kamen) Eyelashes.
The packaging is quite cool in that they show the lashes on a cardboard eye^^
Kamen means "Mask".


More Tsuji-chan at a different Donki, and Nature is Lovely to the right.
Nature is Lovely retails at 198yen for 1pair, or 498yen for the 3pair packs.
3pair packs are only available for S-1 and S-2.


Disney Princess lashes. 698yen for 3pairs at Donki.


Diamond Lash and other Diamond Beauty products at SBY Happy Room.
The newer series, light pink and light blue trays, are only sold at Donki and SBY.
Other common drugstores only carry the older dark pink and violet trays.


SBY stocks mostly brands produced by gyaru models.
Dolly Wink, Melliesh, Eyemazing, Jewerich etc.
They also had Decolog lashes, produced by popular gyaru bloggers.

Also saw Decolog at Pink Latte in Harajuku.
There are 3 types: who's RICH, who's SWEET and who's DOLLY.
They retail for 1,260yen for 5 pairs.


Spotted these Hello Kitty lashes at Pink Latte. 1,029yen for 5 pairs.


...I came back with these! Not all of them are mine!


Just these are mine~ I should've gotten more, I regret not getting the other Decologs or trying a box of Jumily or more Candy Style T_T

Limited Edition Dolly Wink, 1,260yen for 2 pairs (1 each of No.2 - Sweet Girly and No.6 - Baby Cute) and a lash case in purple. The regular lash case is pink and retails for 420yen. Dolly Wink lashes retail for 1,260yen for 2pairs. So basically the case is free!


The 3pair packs of Nature is Lovely S-1 (top lash) and S-2 (lower lash).


ドン・キホーテ限定 GLAMOUROUS EYELASH
Donki-exclusive Limited Edition Luminous Change in 00 Glamorous Rich.
Pack of 3pairs.


Candy Style in D-5 Baby and M-2 Racoon.
These are 198yen per pair at Donki! I got these cos I saw a picture of Romihi in the latest Egg issue and loved her eye makeup, and it was listed that she was using these 2 pairs for the look.


Decolog - who's SWEET.


Liz Lisa たれ目ドーリーラブLIZ系 upper lash.


Eyelash Laboratory - Sweet Fairy 002


EyeLabo - Cute Princess 001


EyeLabo - Sexy Doll 002 (upper) and Natural Angel 003 (lower)


EyeLabo - Cute Princess 002

Yeah, so not very many boxes and I'm sort of regretting now because I probably won't have a chance to try them unless I fork out a lot of extra dough for the extremely marked up prices online, if I can even find them! I forgot to get EyeLabo Sweet Fairy 003, the names/numbers are confusing and I couldn't remember which I'd already gotten. (´Д` ) Sighhh. But I was so happy seeing all the lashes! (´౪`)

I guess there's a big market for lashes there, almost every girl (teens~twenties) I saw was wearing a pair, and I also saw lots of school girls shopping for bunches at Donki. Almost every drugstore I saw stocked at least a couple of brands of lashes.

Anyway, reviews will come when I try them out!
