Tokyo Treat June 2026: Tokyo Throwback

 

Tokyo Treat's Box this month is filled with nostalgia with their Tokyo Throwback box. They are taking us back to retro Tokyo that reminds us of sweet memories, cool sounds and our childhood anime! It reminds me of film cameras, cassette tapes and neon lights.

Let's open the box and see what Tokyo Treat has to offer this month!

Life Lately Vol. 6 Where Have I Been?

"Life is like riding a bicycle.  

To keep your balance, you must keep moving." 

Albert Einstein

It's been 4 years since I last posted anything in this blog, I even almost lost it, yet somehow I keep holding on to this website. It has a special place in my heart, a lot of memories and emotions have been poured into this website and I'm not ready to give it up just yet. I know I've said it before too (I know I've said it A LOT) but I'm really gonna try to post more this time. I PROMISE.

In the meantime, let me bring you up to speed about what's been going on with my life.

-Dolly Parton-

It's been almost a year since I last posted here, and we are on the second month of 2022. It still feels weird to me writing 2022, it feels as if we're in 2020 struggling to make sense of COVID19.

And honestly, I think we still are.

My Japan Bucket List

I was looking through my blog notes in the hopes of feeling motivated to write again when I saw this list I made almost two years ago. I have crossed out some of the things in my list but I still have a lot to do. 2020 and this year haven't been very giving, but since Japan has approved and is slowly rolling out vaccines maybe there is hope soon. So here is a list of the things I want to do while living in Japan:

The Sacred Self-Care Oracle Deck || Reading: Week 2

Okay, so I didn't do as I promised that I will be doing a reading every week. I have to apologize but it's just that I couldn't think or a question or topic for my reading. I guess I've also been busy with so much other things I need to accomplish (which I will update you guys about on my other blog posts eventually). But since I love you guys and I have promised as well, I have finally decided on my topic for this week which is:

How can I manage the stress I feel now?

Revlon Kiss Sugar Scrub (Sugar Mint) Review

During the winter season, my lips tend to be chapped. They get so dry and uncomfortable to the point that they hurt and bleed. The constant wearing of masks kind of help prevent it but it doesn't really stop it entirely. It's a big problem for me at times when I neglect them and I forget to put on a moisturizing balm on my lips which happens almost always because I am a busy busy gal.

Because of that, I needed a lip scrub and found Revlon"s Kiss Sugar Scrub and here's my review:

The Sacred Self-Care Oracle Deck || Reading: Week 1

My friend Alex got me interested in Tarot Cards. He did a reading for me once and I found it very interesting. It also was good guidance for the questions and thoughts I had at the time. One time when I was walking around a nearby bookstore, I found out they were selling different types of tarot cards. I've always thought the illustrations on the different decks were aesthetic and I wanted to see what other types there are. I happened to find The Sacred Self-Care Oracle Deck while I was browsing through Amazon JP. I thought it was beautiful so I decided to purchase it.

It's always hard to take care of oneself. We always think about what other people might think or feel, disregarding yourself. I, too, am guilty of this. I care so much about the world that I forget that it should be me first. Self-care should always be the first priority.

I would use this deck to guide me whenever I have self doubts, personal issues or just to decide what to do on a relaxing weekend. I do believe that the best thing is to meditate and pray always but it's fun to try to use this deck too. This deck will just be a visual guidance on what I would do about the things I would read about.

Goodbye, Blackheads?: Innisfree Blackout Balm Review

 

SEPTEMBER 4, 2020

I started using Innisfree Blackout Balm today in hopes of cleansing my pores. Having huge pores has always been a dilemma of mine and it can collect dirt that results to blackheads. I guess it's in my genes so it's annoyingly inevitable. Some seasons it isn't as bad for me and my pores are not as visible, but during the summer season oh man are they having the time of their life. Since it's hot, the pores tend to be more open and of course open pores mean they get to collect dust and dirt like a maniac.

So here's my review of this product:
