melodee.. you're so beautiful inside and outside :))
i adore how you speech in english and japanese.. your japanese makes me be motivate to learn japanese more.. please keep making creative and inspirational videos ^^
but still just be yourself ;) you're so multitalented ^_^
@HmongCinderella No, I haven't. Even though there are things I wish were a bit different, I believe plastic surgery isn't something that would help make me feel better about my appearance. Plus, I do not have the courage to risk something that will last my entire life. >< I know this sounds cliche, but I truly think having a beautiful personality will show in your smile & actions, so I would much rather learn to become a better person and artist, since I am a dancer and love performing. :)
@sandra48303 I actually discovered the product a few weeks before I filmed this video. I don't use it too often, just once every 2 weeks or so. (b/c I am lazy and also do not want to rely on products too much ><) I will do an updated skincare routine sometime soon, so please stay tuned!
wow!! finally i got to know whats the use of that roller!! (-_-) too bad i am not in Japan now to but gonna search online shops. I saw that roller in Japanese magazines but i didnt know the purpose of it. Thank you for explaining m(_ _)m
@Eunice6390 If you haven't already, please check out my newest Giveaway video where I talk about the body wash I have been recently using. Highly recommended! If you would like, you can enter the giveaway (there are 3 prizes!) as well. :) <3
Thank you for posting this. Do you have a link where people in the USA can buy the Japanese skin care products (except for Shesido, that's all I use)? Plus, I purchased from Korea, a Nivea brand of sunblock that is SPF 50 that says it's also "5 in1" it is 1.) SPF50 PA++ (what does the PA++ mean?) 2.) it's whitening, 3.) collagen protection 4.) DNA protection and I'm not sure what the 5th one is, because it's writen in Korean. I was told Korean and Japanese skin protects are the best in the world
@gavibee It's basically a net that has 3 little sponges or net balls in it. Put some cleanser (ones that would become bubbly) on it, add a bit of warm water, and scrub it a bit to create a marshmallow like foam. I will demonstrate and go into further details + reasonings for this in an updated skincare routine video, but basically it makes it much more gentle for the skin, while making it many more times effective for cleansing. Definitely try looking for one at a Japanese supermarket! :)
@nekophia Yes, I'm planning to do a BB cream overview video! :) I think I found my HG BB cream, so I'll be sure to talk about it in the video. I may try a few more brands out before the video, though. Please stay tuned on my channel! :)
@jmfrani I recommend the Dove one I showed here, but also Biore cleansers are nice. :) Try to get the Japanese versions though, because they are much more gentle. As I showed in the video, create a foam before you cleanse-- it makes a huge difference! :)
@Communitychoud Thank you for your kind words >< Actually, I did add subtitles in this video for my viewers! Turn on the "Annotations" and you'll see what I said in Japanese. :) I do ALL of my videos subbed now though, in the video itself, for all of my English speakers and Japanese viewers.<3
@danceandmelodee Oh okay my bad i will read what you said now , that is good so we understand clearly what you're saying but your english is perfect so..but its good for viewers who are not so good at understand english but can read :)
You're such an inspirational person! I love how you take the time to reply to other people's comments ^^ You're so healthy and fit and you're so beautiful inside. I want to be like you when I'm older~ xD I can't wait to see any new videos you upload in the future ^^
@yoshigahawhaw Aww thank you so much for your kind words... :) <3 I have a very cool and interesting video coming up next that I haven't done before, so please stay tuned! ♪
@Nekoni1998 I hear Cetaphil works for many people who have different types of skin, and I've heard other gurus rave about it as well. I would also recommend something more gentle like the Japanese Biore facial cleanser (green colored packaging) b/c it cleanses very well. Check them out if you would like! :)
Is the Naive deep clear oil cleanser (green one) also good for removing all sorts of makeup (mineral powder + eye makeup)? I saw this in a Japanese supermarket and I plan on buying it, but I 'd like to know if it dried out your skin after you use it......kinda like getting that squeaky clean feeling? Can you use it for regular cleansing besides removing makeup? Thanks!
@Enchanteralle Yes, I used to use it all the time and it removed all of my makeup nicely. (really loved it b/c it worked great for all the waterproof makeup i use as well b/c i dance.) For mee, it did not dry out my skin at all. A product works differently for everyone so I can't say exactly what it would be like for you ><, but it is a wonderful cleanser/make-up remover! I would use a separate face washing foam after removing makeup + deep cleansing with the green deep clear oil cleanser. :)
I used the Queen Helene mint julep masque it gave me a lot more acne but then they started to disappear I don't know how to explain that ps:love your vids
@Jasminejwilliams1412 Hmm... maybe your skin had a minor reaction to a new product, but it started working aftewards? :) I think it's a wonderful product for clearing up the skin and making it feel nice and fresh! I'm glad it helped, though! Thank you so much<3
Is the Kose Sekkisei cream paraben-free? What are the ingredients in it? I'm interested in ordering one for my dry skin. I heard that Japan banned the use of parabens in their skincare products so I'm wondering if you know anything about that.
@Enchanteralle I am pretty sure it is because Kose sells paraben-free products. (I'm sorry, the ingredients aren't listed on the product, but I looked it up and it seems so. ><) It works wonderfully for dry skin! I would def recommend it. :)
@fragilejasmine Yayy I'm glad to hear that :) I also have a huge Japanese Skincare & Makeup Haul video to be posted tonight, so please come by again. Thank you for the compliment!
@Life2Bliss Yes, I actually went to Osaka a couple months ago and looked for a roller I was going to buy for my good friend here on YT... but I had to search for SO many places until I found the same one I had. >< In Tokyo, you can most likely find it at a regular convenience store, but for some reason in Osaka I looked everywhere and finally found it on my last day there. ^^; Yes, online they mostly only sell plastic ones. :'( I hope you'll find a good one somewhere! You're welcome :)
@Life2Bliss The one shown here I bought at a convenience store in Japan was around $20 when converted from yen. Facial rollers can range from $15~$100+, depending on the size and it's features. Ones around $20~$30 in Japan would be good enough. :)
Do you have any good recommendation of japanese skin care products because I'm going to be visiting japan for a week this summer and I am planning to glab a few skin care items along my vacation. Please and thank you :)
I'm just curious if minty facial products can dry out your skin. I heard a lot of great reviews for the Queen Helene mask you talked about. I have dry skin - with my cheeks being the driest parts of my face (dry patches) .Did it help your dry skin?
@Enchanteralle Hmm... I purchased this first in the winter and used it once a week or so, but it didn't dry out my skin. I haven't heard other people have problems with it, too. It doesn't help moisturize or anything, but it definitely helps your skin feel refreshed and clean after you wash it off. :) If you're not sure, try using it on other areas first, & if you feel like it works well for your skin, try a small amount on your cheeks. It's the summer, so it should be better to use as well. :)
@carol02086 When actually washing your face, you should use warm water so that the pores open up and you can clean them really nicely. After you're done, splash cool water to tighten up the pores. :)
@master11superior I know Gackt because he often appears in music programs with other jpop artists I know, but I don't think I know who Malice Mizer is >< Aww thanks for your kind words!<3
@starluving A lot of my viewers have been telling me that after watching my videos as well, which makes me really happy. I would love to do a Japanese learning kind of video real soon! :) <3
Thanks a lot for sharing this video. :) I'm gonna try Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque since I have oily/acne-prone skin. And you're so adorable when you speak Japanese.
I learned Nihongo a while back ago before I transfer to another school. I'm gonna keep on learning it online because its so much fun.. :D
@KpopPrincess97 You're welcome. :) Definitely try it out~ you'll see results even from the first time using it! Thank you for your kind words.<3 That's awesome! I'm actually thinking of doing some "Learn Basic Japanese" videos in the future on this channel, too, so I hope you and my other viewers who are interested in Japanese will like it! :)
konnichiwa genki? nice channel i just want to ask where can i buy the roller thing sorry if my english is bad hehe hope u undestand my english i live in japan
@marikos2kuris Konnichiwa, genki desu! :) Thank you so much<3 Your english is very good♪
I found the roller at a regular convenience store in Japan actually! I think there were several kinds, but I just got the regular priced one (around 2000 yen), and it works just fine. I hope you'll be able to find one near your area! :)
@partyituhppjustfosho Yes, it will be my next or next next video which I'm planning to film this weekend! Please look forward to it. :) I hope you will come by again!<3
@imadinosoar625 Hi, and thank you for the kind comment! Sure, I will do that hair tutorial and an OOTD video in the next few videos then. :) I also actually finished filming my Everyday Makeup Tutorial and am editing it right now, so hopefully I'll get it up tonight/tomorrow! Please come by again. :) <3
@PandaPieCake Ahaha, thank you so much for the compliment! My parents made me speak Japanese as much as I could at home since I was very little, so that definitely helped a lot. :)
hello melodee :) Is that Hada Labo product at 10:43? Well, i got oily skin but i wanna try Shiseido facial cleanser. I don't know if it's good enough for my skin. I just prefer Japanese product :)
Anyway, your japanese is kawaii..and thanks for sharing!
@JungHaRin Yes, that is Hada Labo >< I can't recommend it b/c it felt not-so-great on my skin, and I thought it would be hydrating b/c of the ingredients in it, but it actually dried up my skin. :'( For cleansing, I would recommend something a bit harder (rather than something super milky) for oily skin, and then create a fluffy foam to gently take away the extra sebum. If I find any good cleansers for oily people, I'll definitely let you know. :)
@chibikradark Definitely! Experimenting with different looks and makeup products is a lot of fun, but what's even more important is skin care. :) I would love to do Japanese teaching videos in the future since many people are requesting it! Thank you.<3
@HazelEleanor Thank you for watching!<3 I actually bought mine (the one I showed in this video) at a Japanese convenience store in Japan, but I'm sure you can find them at a Japanese supermarket over here as well! I would say, get one that is between $15~$30. There are ones that are $100+, but the cheaper ones work just fine, and I don't think it's necessary to purchase anything above $30 for this product. :)
@allegroassai100 Aww, thank you so much for the kind compliments! >< You are so sweet.<3 Please look forward to my upcoming videos♪ If you have any video suggestions, please feel free to write me at any time! :)
@yixphil Ohh, that's right~ I've actually heard of that before! But sadly, I don't like dark chocolate that much. :( I think it was that it's not the chocolate that directly produces acne, but it's about eating greasy food/sweets that makes it a lot easier for the skin to break out b/c it causes your skin to produce more oil. ><; I wish yummy food wouldn't create pimples! ^^; lol
@poohbearxo0o Well, splashing your face with cold water doesn't necessarily "close" the pores. (Sorry if I said it that way in the video! ><) It's more like they refresh and tighten them up. :) So, yes, your moisturizer and serum will still sink in and your skin will absorb it well!
@sujugirl468 Yayy~ :) ♪ Yupp, it really does help to refresh and tighten up the pores! I even remember one Japanese model (with absolutely flawless skin!) who said that she splashes her face with cold water for 2 1/2 minutes every single morning and night!
@lovelypromise Aww, thank you so much for the kind compliment! I'm really glad you enjoyed the last part of my video. :) Hmm... well, my parents made me speak Japanese at home most of the time, so I was able to have basic conversations since I was little. But for more difficult vocabulary, kanjis, etc., I probably learned a lot in the past 3 or 4 years!
@tea4al thank u. i live in cali so i cant go to those stores but thanks for the info. your so nice. i dont know were any asian market places are were i live. its like there all hidden lol.
@mystic5059 I think it would depend on where you live in Cali, but maybe you can check online to see if you have a "Nijiya", "Marukai", or "Mitsuwa" marketplace near your area! :) They all have a variety of cosmetic products.
@zvejka ありがとうございます!日本語、お上手ですね♪ ダンスについての質問をいくつか頂いているので、いつか私のダンスライフについてのビデオを作る時に話しますね!(I've been receiving many questions similar to yours, so I will answer your question and talk about my dance life in a future video!) Thank you for watching!<3
Thanks for the video! I was watching a Korean show and they had a dermatologist and they said that toners are just to "clean your skin" one more time, kind of like rubbing alcohol is used to clean your wound area. But yeah its not neccessary :D
@tea4al You're welcome! <3 Also, thank you for helping me respond to another viewer's question. :) Yup, I purchased that toner after I read that it "thoroughly picks up and cleans out excess dirt, sebum, etc.", but I didn't see a difference at all for my skin... :( Maybe it'll come in handy during the summer though, when it gets much more hot and humid!
Good job on the video. You gave some real good tips. They must work because your skin is awesome. I like the Japanese part at the end. I should really try to learn Japanese, because almost all the music and movies I have gotten in the last 4 months are Japanese. Maybe I will subconsciously learn it by watching the movies and some youtube videos like yours. That would be cool.
@uberaudioexperience Thank you very much :)★ That's great! I think I learned the most Japanese from music and TV/movies, because I really enjoyed and got into them. :) Maybe I'll try to do some Japanese speaking & teaching videos in the future! I hope you'll enjoy learning Japanese!<3
@jemlinc You're welcome :)♪ A Japanese brand called "Dr. Ci:labo" is really amazing as well! My grandma used to send it to me from Japan, and I remember loving it. :) Thank you so much for watching my Japanese part, too!<3

Thanks a lot for sharing this video. :) I'm gonna try Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque since I have oily/acne-prone skin. And you're so adorable when you speak Japanese.
I learned Nihongo a while back ago before I transfer to another school. I'm gonna keep on learning it online because its so much fun.. :D

@marikos2kuris Konnichiwa, genki desu! :) Thank you so much<3 Your english is very good♪
I found the roller at a regular convenience store in Japan actually! I think there were several kinds, but I just got the regular priced one (around 2000 yen), and it works just fine. I hope you'll be able to find one near your area! :)

Hello!
I'd like to request a video about your hair! I really loved your hair with the headband and slightly wavy hair!
And also maybe an outfit of the day type of thing or Everyday makeup tutorial!
thanks!

@imadinosoar625 Hi, and thank you for the kind comment! Sure, I will do that hair tutorial and an OOTD video in the next few videos then. :) I also actually finished filming my Everyday Makeup Tutorial and am editing it right now, so hopefully I'll get it up tonight/tomorrow! Please come by again. :) <3

@PandaPieCake Ahaha, thank you so much for the compliment! My parents made me speak Japanese as much as I could at home since I was very little, so that definitely helped a lot. :)
danceandmelodee 9 months ago
hello melodee :) Is that Hada Labo product at 10:43? Well, i got oily skin but i wanna try Shiseido facial cleanser. I don't know if it's good enough for my skin. I just prefer Japanese product :)
Anyway, your japanese is kawaii..and thanks for sharing!
JungHaRin 9 months ago
@JungHaRin Yes, that is Hada Labo >< I can't recommend it b/c it felt not-so-great on my skin, and I thought it would be hydrating b/c of the ingredients in it, but it actually dried up my skin. :'( For cleansing, I would recommend something a bit harder (rather than something super milky) for oily skin, and then create a fluffy foam to gently take away the extra sebum. If I find any good cleansers for oily people, I'll definitely let you know. :)
Thank you so much for watching until the end!<3

HazelEleanor 9 months ago
@HazelEleanor Thank you for watching!<3 I actually bought mine (the one I showed in this video) at a Japanese convenience store in Japan, but I'm sure you can find them at a Japanese supermarket over here as well! I would say, get one that is between $15~$30. There are ones that are $100+, but the cheaper ones work just fine, and I don't think it's necessary to purchase anything above $30 for this product. :)

00:55 actually, "dark" chocolate is good for you. it has antioxidants that are good for your skin.
yixphil 9 months ago
@yixphil Ohh, that's right~ I've actually heard of that before! But sadly, I don't like dark chocolate that much. :( I think it was that it's not the chocolate that directly produces acne, but it's about eating greasy food/sweets that makes it a lot easier for the skin to break out b/c it causes your skin to produce more oil. ><; I wish yummy food wouldn't create pimples! ^^; lol

If you close your pores after cleansing, is the serum & moisturizer that I put after will absorb in my skin?
poohbearxo0o 9 months ago
@poohbearxo0o Well, splashing your face with cold water doesn't necessarily "close" the pores. (Sorry if I said it that way in the video! ><) It's more like they refresh and tighten them up. :) So, yes, your moisturizer and serum will still sink in and your skin will absorb it well!
danceandmelodee 9 months ago
i agree wtih slashing your cold face with water! it's supposed to help refresh your pores too. :D nice tips!! ^^
sujugirl468 9 months ago
@sujugirl468 Yayy~ :) ♪ Yupp, it really does help to refresh and tighten up the pores! I even remember one Japanese model (with absolutely flawless skin!) who said that she splashes her face with cold water for 2 1/2 minutes every single morning and night!

@lovelypromise Aww, thank you so much for the kind compliment! I'm really glad you enjoyed the last part of my video. :) Hmm... well, my parents made me speak Japanese at home most of the time, so I was able to have basic conversations since I was little. But for more difficult vocabulary, kanjis, etc., I probably learned a lot in the past 3 or 4 years!

mystic5059 9 months ago
@mystic5059 I think it would depend on where you live in Cali, but maybe you can check online to see if you have a "Nijiya", "Marukai", or "Mitsuwa" marketplace near your area! :) They all have a variety of cosmetic products.

Thanks for the video! I was watching a Korean show and they had a dermatologist and they said that toners are just to "clean your skin" one more time, kind of like rubbing alcohol is used to clean your wound area. But yeah its not neccessary :D
tea4al 9 months ago
@tea4al You're welcome! <3 Also, thank you for helping me respond to another viewer's question. :) Yup, I purchased that toner after I read that it "thoroughly picks up and cleans out excess dirt, sebum, etc.", but I didn't see a difference at all for my skin... :( Maybe it'll come in handy during the summer though, when it gets much more hot and humid!

早速、日本語を交えたビデオを作ってくれてありがとう。^^独学で日本語がそこまで流暢に話せるなんて素晴らしいです。^^
男だから、スキンケアなんて全く気にしてないけど、洗顔は同じダヴ使ってました。なんか笑っちゃった。^^それから、チョコレート食べ過ぎるとニキビできるってのは迷信らしいですよ。
次は何のビデオかなあ?また楽しみにしてます。^^

danceandmelodee 9 months ago
Good job on the video. You gave some real good tips. They must work because your skin is awesome. I like the Japanese part at the end. I should really try to learn Japanese, because almost all the music and movies I have gotten in the last 4 months are Japanese. Maybe I will subconsciously learn it by watching the movies and some youtube videos like yours. That would be cool.
uberaudioexperience 9 months ago
@uberaudioexperience Thank you very much :)★ That's great! I think I learned the most Japanese from music and TV/movies, because I really enjoyed and got into them. :) Maybe I'll try to do some Japanese speaking & teaching videos in the future! I hope you'll enjoy learning Japanese!<3
