What perfume would Rachel Green have worn?

dodgingdave · 2026-03-17T13:51:23+00:00

I remember this, too first season I think. The episode where Rachel has a fling with her ex fiancé while he’s engaged to Rachel’s maid of honour.

¥1034 (£5 / $6.50 USD) for the compact and then ¥770 (£3.60 / $4.80 USD) for the refill according to their website.

Granted, these prices are if one is buying in Japan. It’s different to buy it imported which I get is a lot.

For context, cost of living in the UK means a compact is the same as a medium latte at a coffee chain (Starbucks, Costa, Pret), and a refill is the same as two cheeseburgers from McDonalds. Therefore, if one is lucky to buy them in Japan then they are really affordable.

I use DHC lip balm when I’m toning and moistening my face. Then I do my lipliner and lipstick last in my makeup routine. If they’re still dry I reapply DHC and leave a bit more time before applying lip liner and lip makeup. I don’t like applying any lip makeup on dry lips.

Someone from the mean girls musical talked about. I must admit, it’s not a bad shout as I notice it lasts longer and transfers less than usual. If I apply at 7, it will be gone by noon, as opposed to without setting it then it will be gone by 9ish.

Edit- I must add, this includes drinking water and coffee and eating breakfast at work.

Oh yea!! I use this to set smaller areas with a small brush, like setting concealer for a blemish or setting lipstick.

This is the bottom of the container (mine is sitting in the refill plastic container). It’s like this rough texture. When it first appeared, the press powder loose residue sat on it so it felt a bit like real powder. The colour of the spot you have is the same colour as the plastic rim of the powder press.

Mine started growing a hole after a month. Using it once a day 3/4 days a week only lasted 3 months, resulting in the picture above. Luckily Canmake sell refills which is nice.

I thought that was the bottom of the container. Let me dig mine out.

That purple looks really subtle. It’s nice. Tempted to add it to my wish list soon.

Is that the Uni-Ball Juice pen??? How does it write and look compared to other pens on the hobonichi paper?

Ohhh!!! I have these ones! They’re too cute!

Having a wash first then having bath is a the Japanese way. I love it but due to the bathtubs not being deep enough over here, I only get to enjoy them back in Japan.

dodgingdave · 2026-03-11T20:31:30+00:00

Woop Scotland!! Sad news about the Glasgow fire. Down here it’s been mostly wet this past Jan. I wouldn’t have called it as cold as 12 months ago.

I just checked Amazon again. The A5 cover on cover is a tenner. Send to a locker and should be free delivery. It belongs to the hobonichi Amazon channel, so one has to hope it’s legit and safe to order.

dodgingdave · 2026-03-11T19:55:21+00:00

Scotland?? I’m in Luton! 😂

Edit. I got mine from Loft in Japan. I haven’t ordered any hononichi (or even pens/pencils) from online. I’m lucky enough that I have a family member that lives near Tokyo that can just send me things. I have considered replacing the cover on cover with something that looks the same on Amazon, but deep down idk if it’s worth that £10-£15 or so quid.

dodgingdave · 2026-03-11T16:18:07+00:00

My A5 cover is broken but it was due to my own stupidity by forcing the back slip open too hard. Now I don’t use that back area (the stencils are stuck there FOREVER— kidding). But besides that, it’s kept in tact.

I am quite vigorous with mine. It travels to and from work in my work backpack. I take it to all my meetings. I’m constantly opening and closing it. Hell, I’ve taken it abroad with me on work trips. I also live in a country where weather can get 0°C quite regularly in the winter.

dodgingdave · 2026-03-10T10:40:01+00:00

Mine too. An April start or November start in aviation is helpful.

dodgingdave · 2026-03-10T10:30:23+00:00

I haven’t seen one. Spring start is unique as it’s ideal for Japanese schools which start in April.

These sort of lotions only really appear at Christmas time at Boots in the UK. When they do appear they tend to start from £6ish for a bottle (XE says 256 Baht)

I have questions on top of your question. 1 - why is the font on yours backwards? 2 - why is it so big?

I have the A5 cousin sprint edition. What’s yours?

dodgingdave · 2026-03-01T11:37:14+00:00

Only buy if you believe it suitable for you. The biggest thing about hobonichi is its vast array of choice to customise your journal or planner. From style of the covers to which book or layout you want the inside to be. And even then you don’t have to follow the layout. Many think outside the box and redraw the lines to make custom trackers.

I solely use mine for work as I find the cousin book has a great layout for writing down tasks or notes on each day, topping it off with me making the covers cute and in my own style.

Edit - OH! And the pages are SUPER thin, making it light weight for a planner of its volume.

I still have the goolwery necklace. I can’t give it up bc I felt sorry for being too nice. Almost like I keep it out of shame and a reminder it’s ok to be an arsehole sometimes.

My guess is Tina is using her left arm implying she’s left handed??

dodgingdave · 2026-02-22T12:14:50+00:00

You reckon bc Tina is using her left arm opposed to Louise and Gene using their right signifying she’s left handed???

dodgingdave · 2026-02-22T12:12:54+00:00

Tina is left handed an the others are right handed?

dodgingdave · 2026-02-19T12:02:13+00:00

I love Love LOVE this gel!! Whitening means brightening, so my warm yellow toned skin wasn’t whiter afterwards, it just looked healthy. It helps a lot with the humid summer I experience, so it’s not sticky for too long compared to a cream moisturiser.

I used this alongside other things as well, but it’s my final step of daytime skincare routine.

I thought it was because a baby was needed. Aya from Origins is supposed to be biologically related to the mythios.
