TSUBAKI from SHISEIDO

SHISEIDO haircare brand TSUBAKI

When it launched, people were skeptical how it could be successful since they spent few million dollars (the highest advertisement cost ever on a single brand) to hire top Japanese models and actress to promote their brand. Not just one models, but 12 ! 

I remember reading an article about the brand manager telling the media that it could be a mega hit or miss that could damage company's name.

Well, it became a top selling brand within Shiseido. 

TSUBAKI with top models and actress, it became so successful that they keep launching new lines.

TSUBAKI is a name of flower that's found everywhere in Japan and the oil of TSUBAKI has been used as lubricant for hundreds of years in Japan.

Red Tsubaki is the very first line and white tsubaki next.

See the entire line up of TSUBAKI form official website

Of course, all MADE IN JAPAN

Authentic Kimono from Japan

Kimono - Japanese traditional garment worn by women, men, and children (wikipedia) are beautiful to look at. But honestly, it is a pain to wear (my personal opinion) and you will be surprised to know that majority of Japanese women (esp younger generation) do not know how to wear kimono properly. 

Yet, it represents history and beauty of Japan and variety of kimonos and accessories are sold online just like other apparel. Price really varies depending on the brand and quality, just like other apparel. There are kimono that's under 100 USD or over 100,000 USD. The same is said for Obi (band) where you may be able to find under 100 USD and some may go over 100 grand.

Here is one type Houbongi with Tango Chirimen

66,100 JPY (about 670 USD)

Obi band

44,900 JPY (about 450 USD)

There are many kimono-like wear circulating on overseas, but if you are looking for real, authentic, Japanese kimono, the best way is to get it direct from Japan.

Here is one of the site selling kimono http://www.kimonoichiba.com/index.html

Fortunately I've learned kimono for few years, so I can give you my personal advice and comments, if u like =)
