My DH is on his way to Japan...

[whiteblankpage]

... is there anything I should be asking him to get me, skin or hair care wise? I know lots of his colleagues get stuff for their wives and girlfriends, but I don't know what to ask for.

I'm early 30's, like a natural/polished look but am still using the same stuff I was using as a teenager. Also following the hair tips thread I have made over my hair care routine, so is there anything down that route I could ask for?

Get thee to the skincare thread.

Oo lucky - there used to be an Asian beauty skincare and makeup thread maybe have a search there

Stuff I use which are staples for me: hada labo skincare, biore sunscreens and sunbears sunscreens.

Stationery😁...though as this is S&B, probably not the answer you were looking for!

I got loads of stationery last time, and I'm potentially going to uni in september so have saved it for that. God I love stationery.

Haha yes to the kitkats! The dc's have already put in a huge list of sweets he needs to source, so I'm trying to be more grown up will just eat the kids

The kids sweets obviously, not the actual kids

A couple of the cute looking face masks, and some charcoal blackhead stuff possibly?

That and stationary/cute sweets/etc

Keiko Mecheri perfume.

not skincare either but still amazing

Biore Watery Essence SPF - as much as he can carry! It's SPF but not as you know it - more like a serum. Sinks straight into the skin, not greasy, completely weightless and no 'cast' left behind at all.

Bathclin bath salts in green tea.

Unbelievable. My partner is Japanese and I always make sure he brings back loads of them

Nail varnishes in the cutest little bottles on the planet....

The green kitkats!

Argh is that the green tea kit kats? My DH brought some back and it seemed like it would be ..an acquired taste
