In November, my friend's mother from Japan brought some omiyage for me that was a relatively new product from Shiseido which was called Kiryo Hand Treatment. I am generally very careful with these types of products as I have really sensitive skin however, I found this to be an amazing gentle product.

I tried to do some checking on the net about it but as this machine has no function to read the characters but managed to find out the this was part of Shiseido's more natural ingredient line. Last month, I went to visit my friend and while working at her restaurant and she asked it had bothered to slog through the Japanese information brochure to check out the ingredients. I knew that it had vitamin E in it so I thought that is why it was working.

I told her that I hadn't had time to get the old dictionary out to check it out which was followed by her telling me that there was essence of urine in it. My first reaction was to cringe but then I remembered that while studying makeup a while back that essence meant a very low content. Amused with this, I then asked her if this is perhaps not a suitable product to be using while working in the restaurant.

I remember watching an episode of CSI entitled Crow's Feet in which women were trying to stop aging. In this episode, there was mention of Urine Therapy in which women drank urine to stay young. Personally, I think that I would have a hard time doing that. It's funny what some people will do to look young.

Funny, the hand cream doesn't really affect me at all. It's a great product and I will use it until it is finished up.
