Cool Cloths

These disposable wet towelettes are the best thing on a hot Tokyo day.

The "Ice-type" has a bit of menthol and keeps the cool feeling for quite a while.  The Biore Powder Sheets are made for the face.  They are damp and have no fragrance.  The little bit of powder really does take the shine off a sweaty face and I love the way it gives a matte finish too.

Never tried these before and not one has even recommended these despite my complaining about the heat and humidity.  Perhaps it's a well-kept secret among Japanese women?  Not any longer.  I've been using them ever since I came back to Honolulu.  Our summer is lasting through September and these cloths really make a difference.  Can't be taking a shower several times a day!  Must keep these at my desk when I go back to work.  Freshen up after walking out to pick up lunch in downtown at the hottest time of day!
