In every February issue of Biteki magazine, it reveals the ultimate favorite cosmetics products as voted by the readers. It is always very interesting to see how some veterans battle with the newcomers.
Again, I will only list products sold internationally. (Also, I will not list what I have listed on my previous post about 2006 best-sellers in Japanese department stores.)

Just found your blog by chance and I’ve got to say that I love Biteki and Voce and being an ex London gal, I used to get mine from the Japan Centre at Picadilly!! Great to see that they’ve recognised Guerlain’s Super Aqua Serum as a great product along with RMK Ingenious Cheeks blusher :)
Keep up the great work with your blog!
Thank you very much for your comment!
I get my Biteki magazines from JP Books in Mitsukoshi Department Store. I go to Japan Centre to look for magazines as well.
Now Urb magazine seems to be the quickest in featuring new products but I have not seen it in London yet…
