Frequently Asked Questions
Is this authentic?
Yes. Every item is bought from an official seller in Japan, or direct from the brand for pre-orders,
never from resellers or grey market stock. Counterfeits and grey market listings are a real problem in
Asian beauty online, and buying only through official channels is how we rule it out.
What are your shipping rates?
On orders under US$75, shipping is a flat US$20 to the United States and US$10 to all other countries.
Orders of US$75 or more ship free, applied automatically at checkout. Your exact shipping cost is shown before you pay.

We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
The puff is smooth and easy to use, and it is soft and comfortable to wear. It doesn't stick to the mask easily.
This face powder gives you a semi-matte finish, but it also leaves your skin feeling smooth and beautiful. When I feel sticky outside, I apply this powder to touch it up. It doesn't come off easily, so I didn't need to touch it up unless it was summer.
I usually use Kate's powder (^^) but this time I decided to change things up and bought the limited edition semi-matt pink. The lighting in my workplace is warm, so the color was perfect as it brightens my skin while still adding a healthy glow! It covers unevenness such as pores and doesn't irritate my skin, so it's my favorite powder to date. I usually have matte skin, so I'd like to try a radiant skin, so I'd like to buy Pink Glow as soon as I find it. It's a shame that it's limited edition.Kate, please make pink powder a regular item! Please!!
I'm a repeat purchase♪Until now, applying foundation made my skin look dirty, but with just Dr. Ci:Labo's UV cream and this face powder, my skin looks radiant♪The best thing about it is that it's cheap.
I was using the sebum-preventing powder, but I ran out and winter is just around the corner, so I bought this. I thought it would have quite a lot of color, but it's almost white when you apply it to your skin. However, it's not pure white, so I'm grateful that it doesn't make my face look washed out. I compared it to Peripera's pressed sebum-preventing powder that I have, and it controlled sebum better than Peripera's, and the powder broke down relatively nicely. The capacity is surprisingly not that large, but it's reasonably priced, so I'd like to continue using this one.
