When I’m out with friends, we always end up in a drugstore by the end of the outing — usually at my request. With so many drugstores in Tokyo, the temptation to explore the beauty aisle is irresistible. Here are some of my favorite Japanese drugstore beauty finds I always recommend to my closest friends.
Momori Hair Keep Brush Price: ¥990 Flyaways are a pain, right? With summer just around the corner, be prepared to constantly battle the humidity to keep your hair frizz-free. In my first summer here, I discovered the point hair stick. It is a clever product that packages clear hair gel in a mascara tube.
The application wand is double the size of a normal mascara wand and is perfect for combing pesky flyaways back into place. While drugstores offer many hair point stick options, I always recommend Momori’s Hair Keep Brush . Not only does it effectively tame flyaways, but Momori’s Hair Keep Brush also smells like fresh, juicy peaches; a novel twist from the typical soapy scent most hair sticks have.
The large wand is perfect for creating a sleek, slicked-back bun or smoothing down baby hairs. Momori’s Hair Keep Brush can also double as an eyebrow gel, keeping your brows in place all day without irritating your eyes. The drugstore offers many versions of hair point sticks, but Momori’s will forever remain my favorite.
