13 Muji Products I Purchased in Japan - Muji Haul
As I mentioned in my previous entries, my husband and I traveled Japan during this New Year's holidays. Because I love Muji products so much, Muji store is one of my must go to places in Japan. This time, I visited Muji Yurakucho (無印良品 有楽町), which is the Muji flagship store and the largest Muji store in Japan. You can check out my previous entry, Muji Yurakucho in Tokyo Japan - The Largest Muji Store!, for information about this store. Today, I'm going to share 13 Muji products I purchased in Japan with you. By the way, Muji has more than 480 branches in Japan now. You can find these Muji products very easily at most Muji branches in Japan. :)
When I visit Japan, I always purchase Muji Sensitive Skin Care Series Light Toning Water, which has been my favorite keshosui for many years, and it's their best selling skincare product indeed. Last month, my husband also started using Muji keshosui, so I purchased three bottles of Muji Light Toning Water for him and me this time. :) I found Japanese news related to men's skincare this year, and it read that 40% of Japanese men in their 20s and 30s use keshosui now!
I purchased this Muji Spray Head for Keshosui for my first time. I really really love this product! With using this spray head, it's easier to apply keshosui on your skin. Indeed, my husband told me that this was the best Muji product we've ever purchased in Japan. ;) This spray head can be used for Muji Light Toning Water Light (さっぱりタイプ) and Moisture (しっとりタイプ). You cannot use it for thicker texture keshosui such as Muji Light Toning Water High Moisture one (高保湿タイプ).
This spray head is perfect for their 400ml bottle of Light Toning Water. If you want to use it for Muji Light Toning Water 200ml bottle, you can cut the tube to 11cm long. Some people review that it's also perfect for 500ml bottle of Hatomugi Skin Conditioner.
Muji Paper Powder is kami oshiroi (紙おしろい), type of aburatorigami (あぶらとり紙), oil blotting paper. Oshiroi (おしろい) means makeup powders in Japanese, but this term is
probably only used for abratorigami now. Japanese abratorigami has two
types, abratorigami and kami oshiroi (紙おしろい). Regular one, which is
called abratorigami, is non powder. Abratorigami with loose powder is
called kami oshiroi.
As I mentioned in my previous entry, 3 Best Japanese Oil Blotting Papers, Aburatorigami, many Japanese cosmetic companies including Shiseido are selling kami
oshiroi, but Muji one is affordable and more popular in
Japan.
As I mentioned in my previous entry, Top 5 Life-Changing Japanese Beauty Products, I always keep oil blotting papers in my on-the-go makeup bag. I have purchased their regular abratorigami many times in Japan, but this was my first time to purchase their kami oshiroi. :) Actually, I really like it. It absorbs oil and leave a little powder on my face. I don't have to carry your setting powder around anymore. ;)
This is instant matcha latte powder. Its matcha was produced in Kyoto, Japan. Just put 3 teaspoons of this instant matcha latte powder and 120ml (4 fl oz) of hot water in a cup, and stir them thoroughly. You can add more powder according to your taste. I put milk instead of hot water. If you love matcha, you probably love this one. :)
This is instant hojicha latte powder. Hojicha (ほうじ茶)
is Japanese roasted green tea. Hojicha looks similar to black tea,
but it's more flavorful and savory. The taste of hojicha is not close to
black tea nor regular green tea. If you are a tea lover and have never tried hojicha
before, you should try it. I think everyone likes it. These years, hojicha latte has been popular in Japan. Indeed, Starbucks also serves hojicha latte in Japan. Last night, I finally tried this Muji hojicha latte for my first time. Just put 3 teaspoons of this instant hojicha latte powder and 140ml (5 fl oz) of hot water in a cup, and stir them thoroughly. You can add more powder according to your taste. Its hojicha aroma was so good! If you love hojicha, you should try it. :)
6. Muji Drip Coffee Original Blend (無印良品 ドリップコーヒー オリジナルブレンド)
390yen for 10 servings (7g x 10)
Muji Drip Coffee Original Blend
This Muji Drip Coffee Original Blend has 10 bags of fresh coffee. It's very affordable. One cup of coffee only costs 39 yen! Drip coffee bags have been common in Japan. It's not
instant coffee. Each bag has fresh ground coffee and a holder. You can
brew perfect coffee wherever if you have hot water and a cup, so these
were cleverly made to make perfect brewed coffee very easily.
Muji Drip Coffee Original Blend
I enjoyed this Muji coffee at home. It was pretty good. I would like to purchase one again when I visit Muji store in Japan next time. :)

These are Muji Japanese Plum Crackers, which have been my favorite Muji snacks since I was a young girl. :) When I go to Muji store, I always buy one. These crackers are slightly sour and salty and have plum (ume, 梅) tastes. I don't know if you like these crackers. These might taste too Japanese to you. However, one bag of Muji Japanese Plum Cracker only costs 100 yen, so why don't you try it? ;)
Muji Mini Ramen Soy Sauce is also one of my favorite Muji snacks. You can make instant ramen noodles with it, but I like to directly eat it as snacks (no cooking). If you love Baby Star Ramen Sanck, you might like it. Muji has four kinds of Mini Ramen (Soy Sauce, Kimuchi, Chicken and Tom Yum Goong), and I always love their soy sauce flavor. It's actually browned soy sauce flavor (こがし醤油).
I love their chocolate coated strawberry series. They are dried strawberries coated with chocolate. Dried strawberries are sour and crunchy, and chocolate has just
the right sweetness (It's not too sweet!) I've tried white chocolate one before. This time, I tried matcha chocolate one and strawberry chocolate one. :) . If you find these chocolate
at Muji store in Japan, you should try them. :)
I purchased Muji Baumkuchen Matcha, which has many positive reviews in Japan. I haven't eaten it yet, but I think you might like it if you like matcha flavored confectionery.
I love Muji chopsticks which made of natural bamboo. I've purchased it so many times since I lived in Japan. Just keep in mind that you cannot wash these chopsticks with a dishwasher.
If you are planning on shopping at Muji store in Japan, I also recommend you to try their retort curry. According to Muji, the most popular selling item in 7000 kinds of Muji products is Muji Butter Chicken Curry. This time, I didn't purchase any Muji curry because I purchased some retort curry pouches at another store in Japan. I'll write about it next time. ;)
