How to use
After preparing your skin with a makeup base, use on areas where you want to cover blue under-eye circles, beard blemishes, etc. Apply a small amount to your skin and blend by tapping lightly with the pads of your fingers. Blending by blurring the line between the concealer and your skin will give a natural finish. If you are concerned about the color of the concealer, apply foundation on top. If you apply too much, it may break. Apply about 5mm. We recommend using a makeup remover to remove it.

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.

Do you offer express shipping?
Yes. As of 22 July 2026, we offer International Express Mail through Japan Post. The cost is based on order weight and is calculated automatically at checkout.
Will I pay customs or import fees?
US orders: No. As of July 1, 2026, all US orders ship DDP (duties delivered prepaid), meaning we prepay all import duties on our end. Nothing is due at your door.
Orders outside the US: Possibly. Duties and import taxes are set by your local customs authority and are not collected at checkout, so any charges on delivery are your responsibility.
We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
I use it to remove dark circles under my eyes. It applies smoothly without getting my hands dirty, and if I blend it in with a puff and then apply a thin layer of foundation on top, it looks natural, so I've been using it for a long time.
I bought this because I want to wear a fuller makeup look now that I'm taking my mask off more often. It's a light makeup so I think it's easy to adjust.
I wanted the red, but it wasn't a limited edition color, so I bought the orange. I compared the left and right sides, using it on dark circles and the other side... hmm... is there really any difference? However, I wonder if it can be used on the redness around the sides of my nose? Since it's a pencil, it might be good for quick application when you don't feel like using concealer. But I don't see any reason why it has to be this one, so I don't think I'll be buying it again...
I was worried about dark circles under my eyes, so I bought the orange one as it had just been released. It's softer and easier to use than I expected. It doesn't completely remove dark circles, but it doesn't dry out my eyes and is easy to carry around, so it's great.
Color Sniper lol. As the name suggests, if you aim, it gives a beautiful finish, so I recommend it lol. It's a pencil type, so it's very easy to use. The glitter adheres well, so it was great and I would like to buy it again ◎
