Shopping at Daiso - What Daiso Japan Sells in the U.S.

Yesterday, my husband and I went to Daiso, which sells most products for $1.50 each. Daiso branches in the U.S. don't have as many diverse products as ones in Japan have, and indeed, some products are only available at Daiso in Japan. However, I found some high-rated Daiso products and interesting products there yesterday. I'm going to share what I found there with you.

These are Natural Henna, hair dye powder. As I mentioned in my previous entry, Top 3 Most Popular Daiso Hair Products, these have many positive reviews in Japan. Daiso Natural Henna can dye sliver/grey hair really well.

These are Daiso Hair Rollers, which are sponge hair curlers. As I mentioned in my previous entry, These are currently the most popular hair product of Daiso in Japan.

These are Daiso Non Slip Mat, which is non adhesive shelf liner. These seem useful to stay tools in place in kitchen drawers.

These wastebaskets look inspired by Kate Spade. :)

They sell many oil blotting papers. As I mentioned in my previous entry, Top 5 Life-Changing Japanese Beauty Products, oil blotting paper is essential beauty item for me.

These contains 300 sheets of oil blotting paper. When I purchase these products at Daiso, I prefer to buy one contains less numbers of papers. I think 300 sheets are too much. It would last too long, but the package would be worn out soon.

These contains 100 sheets of oil blotting papers. These are made from Minou washi (美濃和紙), which is traditional Japanese paper made in Gifu prefecture, Japan. I think these are good quality.

I was interested in Daiso Sumi Face Paper, charcoal oil blotting paper. Charcoal is called sumi in Japanese. As I mentioned in my previous entry, Top 5 Most Popular Japanese Charcoal Soap, charcoal is used in many beauty items in Japan since it absorbs bad odors and chemical. These paper is also made from Mino washi, so it's good quality and usually expensive paper.

These are facial sheet masks. Each package contains 7 sheets of facial mask, so you can use one sheet a day for a week. It's very inexpensive! :) If you are interested in Japanese facial sheet masks, you can check out my previous entry, The Most Popular Facial Sheet Masks in Japan.

If you are not Japanese, you might not need these because you don't eat steamed rice every day, right? Since I am Japanese, I was really interested in these products. These silicone rice ball cases actually have many positive reviews in Japan. You can put steamed rice in it. Then, freeze it, so you don't need plastic wrap to store rice in freezer. When you want to eat a rice ball, just microwave it for minutes. Many people reviews that they microwave it in morning, and take it to their office or school for lunch. It's very convenient for people who want to eat rice for lunch like me. :)
