D. Pawl 'mariposarosa2', Seattle, WA: ''this product is great!... At first, I wondered about rice bran and its effectiveness as a cleanser for skin. It made sense, but I had never used it before. Previously, I had found oatmeal to be a very effective detoxifier for my skin, when I had a bad skin rash. It pulled out the toxins very quickly and my skin felt so healthy!
The ingredients for this great product, put out by Komenuka Bijin Facial Cleansing Powder are: rice bran extract, aloe extract, seaweed extract and coconut oil. That's right....all natural ingredients that you can very easily pronounce (unlike some skin care products whose moisturizers, cleansers and toners consist predominantly of chemicals, engineered in a lab, that are tested quite heartlessly on innocent lab animals). The great thing about this gentle scrub is that it doesn't take much to be effective. In fact, they reccomend that you use only 1/3 of a packet of the product, then mix it with warm water in your hand and apply it directly to the face. You can feel the cleansing powder work almost immediately. For me, my skin felt a lot cleaner, once I had massaged it in. Once I rinsed it off, my skin was so soft. There aren't any fruit acids, here, to burn and add abrasion to the delicate facial skin. Also, my face felt firmer and looked smoother. Great product! Yes, it's a little pricey, but a little goes a long way and it's very effective!'' Item 4008-30: Komenuka Bijin Facial Cleansing Powder from Natural Rice Bran - 30 Packs
Jamie, Philly: ''what a difference a day makes!... Just like Elizabeth, I tried the sample & am simply amazed. I've developed a forehead crease over the last year & after one sweep with the sample, it's half-gone.
So now I'm going to have to buy another item from this wonderful store that I almost wish I hadn't found, just because I've spent so much here already on their excellent products. As soon as I get my TrueRewards code (such a great feature!), I am checking it out & making it a part of my daily routine (with all the other great items I've found here). I just love this store!!!'' Item 4000: Komenuka Bijin NS-K Special Serum Toner - 120ml
J, Philly: ''Buy in bulk 'cause you'll always want them handy!... I just love these - they work so quickly & so well for so many different types of aches. & they're an absolute life saver for cramps. Plus, there's no medicine-y smell - it has a nice cream soda scent to it instead.'' Item 7005-40x6: SALONPAS Pain Relieving Patches - 6 PAK of 40 = 240 total - SAVE $$$ !
Chris H. Welter, Bay Area, CA USA: ''Feels like heaven... This stuff works and smells nice. My friend has some wounds that seemed to heal up a single use, which is amazing. It feels great but you have to make sure all the salts used are completely are dissolved or it feels like sand at the bottom of the bath, so just run a hand on the bottom to dissolve any remaining salts. Next to that, the blue color is a nice touch and it smells great. Hope this helps.'' Item 3028: Nihon No Meito Nyuto Hot Springs Spa Bath Salts - 450g Bottle
Dehlia, Denver, CO: ''Best bath salts I've had... I've been using this for almost 2 years now and I love love love them! They smell wonderful, leave your skin silky smooth, and stimulate warmth in your body.
I am a huge fan of baths. A lot of people in the western world stop taking baths by about puberty, as it is seen as an activity reserved for children and not as effective in cleaning or as quick as a shower. However, bathing culture is completely different in East Asia, where individuals continue to use bathtubs as part of their daily routine well into adulthood. It is seen as a place of relaxation and rest, more than an act of cleaning. One of the best places for this activity in Japan is a natural hot spring (Onsen). However, naturally occurring hot springs aren’t exactly something every person can access, so how do we get the benefits of a hot spring in our own homes?
Enter the Tabi no Yoda hot spring bath salts, made and sold right out of Japan with minerals directly from the source. They come in either a clear or “milky” variety, and this package happens to be of the milky kind.
Out of the myriad of bath powders, salts, and gels I have used, these are by far my favorite. Each little packet represents a famous Japanese Onsen and the minerals in that particular hot spring. They’re identifiable by their soft, pleasant scents and milky colors.
Bathing in these bath salts is as if you’ve been transported right into the hot spring, and you feel yourself sinking into the bliss as soon as you enter the bath. Not only is it a comforting experience, it is also a beneficial one. The minerals are said to relax the muscles and stimulate nerves, warming up the body and keeping it warm. For this reason, I really enjoy using these in the winter time when my body needs to retain as much heat as it can. After the bath, you will immediately notice how the scent lingers on your skin for the rest of the day, and makes it silky smooth, as well.
I give these a 10 out of 10. They are heavenly to use, and I’ll purchase them for as long as I can.'' Item 3070: Tabino Yado Hot Springs ''Milky'' Bath Salts Assortment Pack from Kracie (13 25g Packets, 325g total)
Adrianne A Causey, Petaluma, CA: ''This incense bowl is lovely!... It was an impulse purchase, as I was shopping for something completely different, and I am so glad I bought it! I have made many purchases from TrueRenu, and I have never been disappointed.'' Item 7108: Shoyeido HandCrafted Ceramic Incense Bowl - Desert Sage
Wei Mu, WESTON, FL: ''Perfect... Arrived sooner than I expected. The cotton puffs is in very good quality. It's exactly what I want. Thanks for the little gifts.'' Item 7054: Selena Multi-layer Cotton Puffs - 80 sheets
