Bath Salt & Face Mask
Sunday, Apr. 24, 2011 | 32 Comments
Happy Easter!! 
Mmmm I’m stuffed from a heavy lamb dinner and about to go take a hot soak. 
So I thought I’d post some quick reviews of a few bath items! 
First up is a baking soda bath salt called “毛穴撫子 重曹白肌風呂.” It contains silk, rice bran, and fermented soymilk as main ingredients. 
毛穴撫子 重曹白肌風呂.
It’s a deep cleaning salt that’s supposed to peel away your dead skin leaving you feeling refresh and silky. 
Very fragrant! The scent is only described as “powder” scent [おしろい] but it’s not a typical US “baby powder” scent (which I hate btw.) It’s an amazing wonderful scent!! The water feels soft as if lotion was added. Very moisturizing. Scent disappears quickly though. 
Color is milky light pink. 
I really wish I had more than just 1 packet of this, it was fantastic for a moisturizer bath salt! 
Received a 4.3 on Cosme.net. 
Looks like imomoko.com is currently selling it if anyone is interested.
Next up is Kracie’s ひきしめ美肌 face mask! A tightening face mask in all black!

Its color is from the ingredients of charcoal and other natural minerals supposedly from springs in Okinawa. 
The scent is all business. It mostly just smells like a moisturizing lotion. You leave it on for about 20 minutes. Has pretty good immediate effects but nothing long term. Since it doesn’t really have an aroma this isn’t for “relaxing” purposes. It’s a serious business face firming mask! Received a rating of 4.4 at cosme.net. Cosmelandusa.com is selling 5 packs.

Bertifuiiil haha
I was wondering how the black mask was! Cool!
It was a bit intimidating until I opened the package xD
Wah they sound so great! I wish I could easily get these near me, your reviews of them make me want them~
I hope you had a happy Easter! I had a big lamb dinner, too~ It was so good.
I wish I could be these in store & not have to ponder buying online you know =Y
Mmmmm lamb is so traditionally fantastic!
:O! I just saw that mask at the supermarket the other day and was wondering if I should get it since I’ve never heard anyone talk about the brand before. Guess I’ll have to make a trip back ^-^
If you’re looking for a tightening mask it’s good to go
v
:O I want to try out these items now!~ I hope you had a wonderful Easter!
I did, thank you, hope you did too!!
Mm, bath soak…and I think you should have taken a picture with the black face mask on. LOL
Hahahaha, no one needs to see that, not even my camera xD
omg, DO HATE baby powder smell too lol!!
I actually hate any smell having to do with babies, which says a lot about my ‘maternal nature,’ haha *fail*
That tightening mask looks awesome though! D: Definitely would give it a try~
HHHAJAAA DITTO. Everyone in my office has had baby fever for like 2 years now *kills self* and of course I get asked “when I’m going to join” gtfooooooo lol
Happy Easter btw~! ♥
You too
The black mask looks so intense!! LOL!
I know, I was a bit ‘concerned’ about it given the packaging but turned out all good
I thought it would stink or something!
i want to try both, especially the mask
I wish there was a store that I could get these from rather than ordering online. I loved using Asian beauty products; (to me anyways) they tend to work much better than North American ones.
Agreed. I rather buy these in person. I just love browsing & touching stuff before buying it. I usually get super super desperate before buying stuff online.
I live in Okinawa, and I just love that mask. ^u^ It does mean “serious business” haha. I use it especially while I take a hot bath, before going out for the night.
Ah this is when I use masks too! While in the tub
oooh i’d really like to try them out, especially the first one *~*
ShuShu ♥
Nice reviews. I want to try them both, especially the bath salt.
That mask looks interesting!! Hope you had a good Easter.
I did! Thank you! I hope you did as well :3
It sounds like I need to try out the first one ~ I’ve been dying to take nice, hot shower these days! They’re pretty hectic..
I’m in dire need of a face mask too.. oh dear! Time to go shopping again… ~
Hope you find something to your liking xDDD Sounds like you could use a real rest!
Hope you had a happy Easter!
I have seen the bath salts at the Mitsuwa near our place, so I will definitely have to give these a try. I am always looking for exfoliating type beauty products =)
Happy Easter to you too! Siigh, I want to try taking a nice long bath but I always feel like I’m wasting an extraordinary amount of water because my bath is a shower/bath combo and the tub is a long full length one which takes a disgusting amount of water to even fill up 1/4 of the way =.= Is the charcoal mask actually a sheet mask? I’ve never seen a charcoal sheet mask before! I’ve only ever seen them in squeeze tubes and being either washoff or peel-off masks. For tightening, I’d recommend Lancome’s white clay mask - while it is a bit pricier, it lasts freaking forever
It sucks out a bunch of your skin impurities and leaves your face feeling nice and refreshed and firmer 
Haha the black mask must look a bit scary on…
I have about 2-3 of these face mask things but I haven’t used them before! Maybe I’ll try them out now ^o^
Nice!! I would love to get more into the bath salts! I can’t find JP ones near me though and though I like local places they can be actually $$.
