3 Best Luxury Japanese Facial Tissue

As I mentioned in my previous entry, Amazon Japan Haul - Sanitary Pads and Pantyliner, Japanese paper products such as diapers and sanitary pads are really well made and also really popular for wealthy Asian people. A few days ago, I read a Japanese article that Japanese pocket facial tissue is also popular for foreign tourists visiting Japan. Because Japanese high quality facial tissue is extremely smooth and soft, it's perfect souvenir from Japan. If you are planning on visiting Japan, you should check Japanese facial tissue there. Today, I'm going to share three best Japanese facial tissue products with you. All of them I listed below can be purchased at many drugstores in Japan. These are more expensive than regular facial tissue, but high-end ones are really popular for Japanese people who have allergies or cold. By the way, compared to the price of facial tissue in the U.S., two of them are not very expensive. :)

No.1 Nepia Hana Celeb (ネピア鼻セレブ) by Oji (王子)

Hana Celeb Pocket Facial Tissue

16 pocket packs (12 counts each) of 2-ply facial tissue for about 300 yen

Oji Nepia released Hana Celeb in 2004. At that time, I thought that this facial tissue was a little pricey because of its cute packaging. However, it's not only cute but also is very soft and smooth. It contains moisturizing ingredients such as glycerine and sorbitol. Soon after Hana Celeb was released, it became very popular in Japan, and many people say that they used to have chapped noses from frequently blowing, but after starting using Hana Celeb, their noses doesn't hurt anymore because Hana Celeb is extremely soft! Every time you use Hana Celeb, the picture of adorable animal on the packaging makes you happy. :) I think this small pocket facial tissue is perfect for women, children and people who have allergies or cold. You can find Hana Celeb at drugstores and supermarkets in Japan. By they way, hana (鼻) means nose in Japanese. Celeb (セレブ) in Japanese comes from celebrities in English, but celeb in Japanese means rich or wealthy people. That's why your noses feel rich with high quality facial tissue like Hana Celeb.

Hana Celeb Facial Tissue

3 packs (200 counts each) of 2-ply facial tissue for about 600 yen

Oji Nepia also released this stylish facial tissue, Otona no Hana Celeb (大人の鼻セレブ), which has extra softness with extra moisturizing ingredients.

These are Anpanman Hana Celeb (アンパンマン鼻セレブ). Anpanman (アンパンマン) is popular Japanese animation for small children.

Elleair Zeitaku Hoshitsu Lotion Tissue Pocket Facial Tissue

If you think Hana Celeb is too cute, you can try Elleair Zeitaku Hoshitsu Lotion Tissue. Daio Seishi (大王製紙), Daio Paper Corporation, created these high quality facial tissue which contains moisturizing ingredients such as glycerine, collagen and hyaluronic acid. Elleair Zeitaku Hoshitsu Lotion Tissue has so many positive reviews and some people says it's actually better than Hana Celeb.

No. 3 Kleenex Shikou Kiwami (クリネックス至高極) by Nihon Seishi Crecia (日本製紙クレシア)

If you want to get the most extravagant Japanese facial tissue, try Kleenex Shikou Kiwami (クリネックス至高極). Hana Celeb is more expensive than regular Japanese facial tissue, but this Kleenex Shikou Kiwami is actually 8 times more expensive than Hana Celeb. You think Kleenex is American company, right? Nihon Seishi Crecia (日本製紙クレシア), Nippon Paper Crecia, also sells Kleenex products in Japan. However, Japanese Kleenex has unique products which you have never seen in the U.S. Each sheet of Kleenex Shikou Kiwami is made of 4 layers of high quality paper, so it feels very smooth and soft.
