Hello lovelies,

I decided to start 'Stealing Beauty', a series of Guerrilla-style photography posts of cosmetic counters throughout Japan...maybe the world!?

To christen this candid beauty venture, here's a photo I took of the Laduree counter in Mitsukoshi Ginza.


Hope you enjoyed the first installment of my stealing beauty series :DD

Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.

  1. I love this! And WOW the Laduree counter is stunning. It would drive me crazy to have to realign all those blushes all the time though, haha.

    1. Glad to love the idea :D

      I'll probably get deported for doing this, but it's all worth it in the name of makeup!

  3. Hello Brave Lady! I lived in Tokyo for 3 years, and I was always surprised how the nation of photo-takers freaks out if you take a photo in a shop! Good for you - get in there at Takashimaya!

  7. I don't really go for unnecessary packaging (so luxury products usually have a minus from me on that one), but does this look beautiful or what!

    1. In all honesty, I tend to find the Japanese cosmetic packaging a bit juvenile and excessive. However, Laduree's beauty counter is beautiful!
