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 won't buy it again. It's pleasant to use, but the scent is strong. It evens out the skin tone and gives it a radiant glow. The mini size is great for trying it out or for travel.
Even if you apply a lot, it doesn't get stuck in your pores, which is great. It also makes your skin look beautiful.
The liquid foundation I use next goes on beautifully. I thought it might be a bit much to buy a larger size straight away, so I chose the smaller size. It's convenient to put in a pouch when traveling. If this isn't enough, I also add a little Clé de Peau primer.
I was soothed by the scent of the tester, so I bought it. However, it lingers and is quite strong, so I think people's tastes may differ.
This was my first time using it. It was smooth and blended into my skin.
