//PR SAMPLE/ MAKE UP / JAPAN //
I love Japanese beauty products equally much to Korean beauty products, but unfortunately, they are a bit harder to get. Remember when I reviewed some Japanese products from Kirei Station a while ago? Guess what?! Now they have also a subscription box to offer: the Getsu Box! Here is an unboxing of the first Getsu Box November 2017:
What is Kirei Station Getsu Box?
What Kirei Staion says: “Kirei Station Getsu (monthly) Box delivers unique Japanese products to you on a monthly subscription basis. All products are from a wide range of Japanese brands. There are a lot of Japanese products that works really well and are raved by the locals, some of them are often very affordable and convenient to use. Unfortunately, these products are not very easy for people overseas to get their hands on, hence the reason we decided to offer subscription boxes in our shop. Mainly to spread awareness of different brands and help other beauty enthusiasts find interesting and sometimes cute Japanese beauty products whether it is from a popular or an unknown brand and also to make purchasing these products more accessible for anyone at a low-cost. You might also find your holy grail products through our Getsu Box!”
This box came with 3 full-sized makeup products, one mask, and some cute samples and chocolate! *_* Of course there was also a description note for the single products included.
Sana Pore Putty CC Cream
This was my personal highlight of this box. I’ve wanted to try this CC cream for forever and here it is! And it has become my go-to daily CC cream for the last weeks. This CC cream offers a pore-less, skin-like natural finish, claims to be long-lasting, and contains SPF 50+ PA++++ and hyaluronic acid. Apart from the “natural matte” finish, which was part of the Getsu Box here, this CC cream is also available in “Enriched Moist” and “Bright Up”. It also was a part of the Cosme 2017 Mid-year rankings.
Cezanne Gel Eyeliner
Cezanne is also one of the more popular Japanese beauty brand. This brown colored gel eyeliner has a soft texture and a natural pigmentation. It doesn’t smudge or bulge at all and it was really a thing to remove my swatched line on my hand. It is waterproof and can be used as eyeliner, but also blended out for more depth. It is available in black, too, but in Japan brown eyeliner is really popular, because it gives a more natural look.
Shiseido Therapindo Oil Balm R
This oil balm bar by Shiseido is perfect for winter days. It is made with lavender essence and sesame oil. I haven’t used it yet, but I’m sure it will be useful in the next months. And look at this adorable packaging design! I wished the western Shiseido products would offer more of their girly designs here, too.
Kose Clear Turn Lift Astaxanthin Mask
You can never go wrong with a mask! This sheet masks contains Astaxanthin for firmness and anti-aging. The Kose Clear Turn masks have been number 1 in the sheet mask category in Japan from January 2006 to December 2016! That sounds like a really superb mask to me!
Last but not least, some samples and chocolate!*_*
What do you think about this box? I will make use of all the products, so I’d say that this was a good one for me. My highlight is the CC cream, which I’m really using on a daily basis at the moment :) The Getsu Box retails for 30 US$ plus shipping if you want to opt for EMS or registered mail (SAL is free of charge). There are also options to get the Gestu Box for 3, 6, or 12 months. At the moment you can subscribe for the January Getsu Box, which will include 4 full-sized products and 4 other products (masks/travel sized/snacks/samples…).
I will make more detailed reviews on the single products in future. Are you especially interested in any of these? Let me know!

Puhhh also ich muss ehrlich gestehen, dass ich den Preis etwas hoch finde für den Inhalt. Die Produkte sehen zwar nett aus, aber nur schon die CC Cream wäre bei mir verschwendet. Schade :/

Thank you for the comment dear <3 I totally agree...it sounds so nice. I haven't tried it yet because I have some more lip balms to use up before, but I'm really excited to use them.
Hi Laven!
Thanks for sharing this! Would really love to see a review of the CC cream. It’s kinda intriguing
The CC cream is in my daily use at the moment and it gives a nice and natural finish. I can understand why it has been a favourite in japan.
Thank you for sharing cosmetics information, I’ve tried some and bought from Japan via Transbang(cheap forwarding company https://goo.gl/Qq9VDL), and i still look for the best one that suit me, will try the products in your article (:
