The first time I walked into Tenryu-ji Temple, what surprised me most was the tranquility of the garden. Sitting beside Sogen Pond and taking it all in, the mountain scenery, pond, and old temple buildings blended together, giving it a true Kyoto feel. It was especially beautiful during cherry blossom season, when the soft pink flowers decorated the ancient temple grounds. The whole scene felt gentle and romantic, making it hard to stop taking photos. It was also a great place to slow down and experience Kyoto's Zen atmosphere.

Lake Shoji（Shoji-ko）
This dammed lake formed by the volcanic eruption of Mt.Fuji is the smallest lake of Fuji Five Lakes. Lake Shoji and another 2 dammed lakes, Lake Motosu and Senoumi, also formed by the volcanic eruption of Mt.Fuji, were originally a single lake, but Mt. Fuji erupted again in the 9th century and outpouring lava divided 2 lakes and Lake Shoji.
While riding the bus past Lake Shoji, Mt. Fuji suddenly came into view through the window, and I couldn’t help but be captivated by the scenery. The lake reflected the sky, while Mt. Fuji stood quietly in the distance, its outline clear and graceful, like a natural landscape painting.
Lake Shoji is less crowded than popular tourist spots, giving it a greater sense of peace and tranquility. As the bus traveled along the lakeshore, the view from the window brought the lake, mountains, and Mt. Fuji together in a captivating scene.

Curél Lotion
A whole-body lotion from Curél, a skincare brand designed for dry, sensitive skin. The moisturizing ingredients (ceramide functional ingredients and eucalyptus extract) penetrate deep into the stratum corneum.
Curél Lotion has a pretty lightweight texture. It spreads easily on my face and doesn’t feel too heavy or sticky.
After applying it, my skin feels softer, and the moisture feels comfortable. It feels just right, especially when I’m usually in an air-conditioned room or when the weather is dry.

MAKE KEEP MIST
This finishing lotion is simply sprayed on top of finished makeup to make it last. As it contains sweat-and-sebum-proof ingredients, it not only repels water, sweat, and sebum, but also suppresses shine and makeup running.
KOSE's moisturizing makeup setting spray seems very suitable for people who wear makeup regularly. The spray is very convenient. After finishing your makeup, just lightly spray it on your face as the final setting step.
I personally like the moisturizing feel it provides. My face doesn't feel dry after using it, and my makeup looks more natural.
