There are so many home-ec things at Mitsuwa that are so tempting to buy. Those Japanese people really know how to make things that look so efficient and clean! You buy it and you want to think “This will really work! Look how wonderful it is!” and they really pay attention to their packaging. I bought this air freshener today. You should see the instructions on how to assemble it. There is a square felt piece you put over the felt inserts that soak up the perfume so that it disperses, and if you want an extra boost, you can press to spray. The cover says “Air wash, mist plus. Fruit flora fragrance (?)”

There are little colored transparent balls in the liquid that float around. So cute! What is it made out of? I almost want to fish them out but I don’t want to ruin their habitat! There may be a specific balance of chemicals that I don’t want to disrupt <: (.

I also got something I’ve had my eye on for awhile.

Mikan-chan. Lip cream! The label seems to say there is collagen in it “Koraagen”. oOooo. The reason why I got this is because it’s shaped in a cute little mikan! Kind of like the little Cuties clementines you see at the market, or manderin oranges. And it smells sooooooooo good. I wish I could waft some of this smell onto the internet. They have these in a bigger size for hand lotion as well.

You can smell it once you open it. MmmmM! Imagine this in your purse…eee! > <. Totally a summer must-have for me. They have a red apple one…and I’m sure I’ve seen another kind…I think it was peach. Peach!! Maybe I have to get that one too.
