[@ScuubaSteefe]

America: I dunno, make it lime flavored Japan: The next flavor for our soda is *throws dart at wheel* salmon

[@crsh2007]

ScuubaSteefe omg DEAD! Lolol

[@kaysi_mochi8242]

Lmfaooo

[@kendallsimmers9496]

I bet that's actually how they do it

[@yamigekusu]

America once had a Turkey Dinner flavored pop. It tasted strange. I liked it

[@majal8735]

i should start making all my decisions like this tbh

[@samanthavelo]

Sharla: "Omg, first Xmas present of the year!" Taylor from Hong Kong: sheds single tear* XD

[@tatchsnart]

LOL! I didn't catch that XD XD

[@sharlainjapan]

Ahahaha opened them so early forgot they were Christmas presents😅🙏🏻

[@martaxiaoyu]

true xD

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

Nothing beats the present Taylor got him 🙊🙈👀💃💃

[@tappydoesstuff7294]

YamiAlex224 what was is? 🤔

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

TappyDoesStuff watch the video. It's funny. I will give a hint elephant

[@evilhellokittie]

Sharla, thank you for vlogging you ordering food! It's not necessarily the most riveting part of your videos lol, but it's really handy for people trying to learn Japanese or wanting to travel to Japan!! I am going to Japan in a few months, I do know a little Japanese but am not very confident at speaking, and I am nervous about ordering food in Japan and just speaking to staff and native speakers in general! So watching this and seeing how you order and stuff is really helpful!! Thank you, luv ya vids xxx

[@aquanitemare]

Reminds me of when I was in Japan my first time and didn't speak any Japanese. I went to order a parfait by myself, and when the waiter was actually asking "is that all?" I imagined he was saying "anything else?" so I said no, then I answered yes/no alternating as he was alternating what he was asking, and we were both confused hahaha.

[@Yuvellevin1]

Yes yes!

[@evilhellokittie]

Karina B ahahaha, also it's one thing to know how to say all these things and phrases in Japanese, but you have to be able to understand what the reply is!!! Hahah 😅

[@MannequinMonsta]

a pubic hair brush AND an ear cleaning stick? wow your friend is a LUCKY GIRL!! im screaming

[@RachaelMortician]

That soda thoooo. I wish America would do special soda flavors like they do in Japan. I mean, we come up with the weirdest potato chip flavors lol. How hard would it be to market a Halloween or Christmas soda? Lol. I'm going to be so sad when your Vlogmas videos are over, but I'll also be happy knowing you'll get a bit more rest and a bit of a break to enjoy the holidays haha.

[@JamieJamez]

jonessoda use to make all sorts of weird flavors, but now the only thing interesting they have is a limited edition Birthday Cake flavor.

[@Steve211Ucdhihifvshi]

you think your potato chips are weird you should see some of the australian and japanese chips hahaha

[@zachariahrobin8993]

It's worth staying up late when you get a vlog from Sharla and it's extra worth it when it's vlogmassssssss

[@jasminefrench1223]

Yeah Aussie is really strict on what they let in - my Aunty used to work at Customs for AusPost and they get stupid things in the mail all the time like raw fish and bear skins that haven't been treated and that kinda thing

[@mariblue72]

As an Aussie with limited access to foreign snacks, that information made me weep. And slightly confused, because I used to get monthly snack boxes from Japan Crate until they became super disappointing in their choices. Although they're based in the U.S., so maybe it's a trade agreement thing?

[@cherryblossom0426]

💕❤️💕❤️ LOL that pubic hair comb tho 😂

[@delukxy]

Very limited market outside Japan....................... lol

[@_mermaidguts]

Is it weird I'm more excited for Keyboard San to open his presents than I am for mine?

[@ChocolateEyedGirl87]

I’ll probably get a bedazzeler for Christmas again😪

[@_mermaidguts]

Yikes.

[@6709LeftzBehind]

thanks for the pharmacy bit! Those masks look super interesting. I'm heading home for christmas and I really want to try them on the flight because I always get sooo dried out, any moisture would help...but now I'm wondering if it might bother the other passengers. Do you have any favorite Japanese travel products or tips?

[@Snowdrea]

a lot of people use those on planes, the scent is not so strong, you smell it yourself, but it doesn`t spread around :)

[@PandaTae]

I am going to miss your vlogs! I love watching your videos. I can't wait to see what 2018 adventure you will go on. Best of luck with your move to Korea!

[@MarieLyster]

Omg I hear Norwegians talking to you when you open the gifts in the beginning :D so cool!

[@thenaluxx]

SAME

[@MarieLyster]

She opened a red letter from me in the video where she dress up Maro and Luna in Squirtle outfit too 🙈😊

[@ziraeliss]

I totally feel like I want to live in Japan, there's so many new things I want to try. Those weird pepsi flavours, the bath and skincare stuff, all the snacks and sweets and just food in general... I feel like I need to at least make a friend there that can send me like huge boxes every once in a while xD And I've been loooooving vlogmas, I'm sure going to miss you a lot when it's over, you and Taylor have been keeping me company every day. I do look forward to your new adventures though, can't wait for new stuff, in Japan, Korea or wherever you are ^_^

[@megangoggans1208]

Thanks for sharing what you got for her. I'm sure that she'll love it! Hopefully the post office lets you mail it. I'm gonna have to look back through your favorites videos. I can't afford to go back to Japan yet, but I love keeping an inspirational list of what I'll get in each country and these kinds of videos help me out a lot when I can't travel currently. Thanks for always being so sweet Sharla! I love watching a part of your day. Best from America!

[@TheTripleOtakus]

I totally feel the pain of getting guys presents! I'm hosting a Christmas party and I'm being santa and had no inspiration for some of the guys ^^'. I ended up getting fun socks! (There were Snorlax ones and one of llamas with ties :DD)

[@zachariahrobin8993]

TheTriple Otakus socks are amazing presents for pretty much everyone although I did have a friend once who hates socks and would avoid them at all costs

[@TheTripleOtakus]

Zach Richards Zach Richards Yeah! Can't go wrong with socks, especially ones with cool designs or fluffy ones.. but it's too bad your friend doesn't like socks :O

[@zachariahrobin8993]

TheTriple Otakus yup odd ones are the best😊 she doesn't know what she's missing out on😂

[@libbytwzz2032]

I'm glad that you seem happier today! I hope today was a good day!

[@rockstarbulldog1472]

I swear each video I watch of Japan, whether its Sharla's (Especially Sharla's) or someone else's, it makes me wish more and more I could move to Japan...

[@Sakja]

When I was young, I visited Europe and now really wish I had chosen to visit Asia instead.

[@szymonziolkowski5967]

Rockstar Bulldog Well Good Luck! ^^ Hope you will find your true Love and friendship there.

[@imaginedarc1883]

I missed a couple of vlogmas vlogs bc work has been so busy but I'm glad I got to catch up!! And I'm happy that you found the shoes, I'm sure keyboard-san is gonna love them

[@xTheCommodore]

My cat loves to chew stuff too so I feel your struggle. If you can find them online somewhere that will ship to Japan, Petstages makes a few different chew toys for cats!

[@puffyday1419]

The reason that we are so strict with food being brought to Australia is because there's a lot of diseases and pests we don't have here and they could devastate our agriculture industry, and being an island it's a bit easier to keep them out. It's even worse in Tasmania! There's a lot of things you can't take from mainland Australia to Tasmania just in case.

[@tappydoesstuff7294]

Puffy Day intressting. :)

[@TheEntelexia]

Well said :) Our rules are strict because we've had the privilege of being able to maintain our borders well from outside diseases and pests. I'd hate to see our land destroyed by others irresponsible choices :(

[@Sakja]

Wish we in the US had been able to keep out some of the pests we have now. We even have those horrible stink bugs now. Ugh.

[@Peorhum]

I know you can send snacks to Australia though because Cheeky Tam(on ytube) from Australia gets them mailed to her all the time. Every nation has problems with some food items like fruit, meats and dairy but most packaged snacks should be ok.

[@LifeWithMrsB]

I've been loving your vlogmas sharla :) daily is hard (we have been daily for a year now) but i love your content so much!! I need to get me one of those heated eye masks lol

[@rebecca2240]

Taylor’s gift to you was the first, silly! 🙊🙊

[@sharlainjapan]

Oh yeah duh😂😂

[@jessicacarrillo2602]

Lol I thought the same thing!

[@X_raygun]

Aw your vlogs are really cute! I recently subscribed because I'm a weeb and I love Japanese stuff so you speaking and reading Japanese and showing us stuff is really cool for me to watch and learn :) and I'm excited for all the Korean stuff too hehe

[@SonnieTravels]

I tried the Pepsi Christmas Cake too! Haha My husband and our friends could only taste vanilla though! I was the only one that tasted strawberries!

[@ImYuhAngel]

Omg.. keyboard-san was playing BTOB ‘missing you’ in the beginning in the car 💙💙

[@karistyasafitei3237]

ImYuhAngel I know it, I'm not the only one that noticed it... 😆😆

[@laurasand8746]

Omg first I love your videos! Second I’m going to buy so much stuff when I go to Japan!! In Denmark they don’t sell super cute stuff like they do in Japan! I’m going to be even more broke lol

[@megjoyce18]

I'm going to miss your vlogmas but I'm glad you're going to get a good break! (: I'm sure moving is going to be a bit stressful so please rest when you can.

[@juppaustria2924]

Oh what a nice idea💕❤️ - omikuji new year stickers!!!! - I wish in Austria there would be one💕❤️💕❤️

[@evie9609]

Ahhhhh I need both those stamps 😭 I hope they still have them in April when I’m there. The tiny wreaths you’ve been using on gifts is so cute :)

[@lonestray989]

Those fabrics were adorable! Reminds me of when I was little and my mom would make homemade blankets for my brother and me, and we chose our own designs! :)

[@onelittlerower]

Yeah Australia is very strict we are also a rabies free country and we have a delicate ecosystem. We found foreign seeds and foods unless grown in Australia can cause plants to become diseased. With Australian Flora and Fauna affected radically in the past 200+ years from european settlement. We're trying to preserve and repair.

[@Tomodachi323]

what a nice medley of goodies to send to your friend in Australia. Good job Sharla! 👍😊

[@Daisy35]

I read one time that Japanese restaurants don’t let you modify the menu. Is it difficult to ask for no cheese/bacon etc. when eating out? I was surprised when they let you omit the bacon, but maybe I just remember wrong

[@missyk5474]

Watching these makes me so homesick. I left Japan in 2007 and have never been able to return. It sucks that you're leaving...

[@EnderMenFriend]

I'm glad you feel better today!

[@Timmi_i]

Wishing your family , keybor san ( elbow san 😝 ) [ before I edited it ] and you a very Merry Christmas and a happy safe holiday when New Years comes around . I’m sorry to see that yesterday’s blog u weren’t feeling 110% but still want u to know that is much appreciated that you persevered and still did that for us . Sending positive vibes back to u because I know the struggle. Also it was a great idea to reflect on all the good things that had happened within the year to make ur self come out the funk a little n smile I will be using that as a tool to pull myself out of a funk when I go there so thank you for that as well !!!!

[@ElaineS0t0]

Timothy Healy elbow San ???? That’s Taylor R boyfriend 🤣🤣 her boyfriend name is Keyboard San 🤣🤣

[@Timmi_i]

Killerqueen97 hahahahahaah I realized that as the last minute haahhahah My American was showing 😝🤣🤣

[@zoew1602]

I want to jump on a plane and buy lots of stuff in Japan! I definitely need the smile raiser as mine is starting to droop 😕! And why oh why doesn't the UK have these wonderful Pepsi concoctions?! x

[@michelleb5381]

That looks so yummy! Happy to see that you are having a better day than yesterday. Can't wait for the new adventures in Korea

[@aniii8711]

Wohooo my danish can help you! :D Rug is rye, and sprø is like crunchy/crispy. So Yeah, Ryecrisp is probably a good translation 😄

[@markfoster1520]

"You can really taste the rug." jk

[@Vacilando22]

Hi there! I love your videos. You arr so sweet and thoughtful with the gifts for your friemds and loved ones. What are the leg patches that you mentioned, that relaxes your muscles? I get restless legs sometimes ans would love to try them. Thank you!!

[@FishytheKnight]

I don’t know about other places, but in America we got weird Salted Caramel Pepsi. The idea seems good but the taste isn’t best. It tastes like salty Pepsi. 😭 Have a wonderful Holiday Sharla ~😃

[@gersonm2368]

FishytheKnight i liked it lol

[@ShawneeMartin]

I had an allergic reaction to the Splenda in it...

[@Quackapudding]

That's bizarre. My parents send me food all the time, either from Kumamoto or Tokyo around the Setagaya area. The only thing that sometimes struggles to get through is umeboshi and cat/dog food. Getting anything wooden into Australia is also very hard, even when it's treated.

[@sharlainjapan]

That’s so weird, the book said “no types of snacks whatsoever” Maybe if it’s not snack food??? 🤔😂

[@Quackapudding]

Sharmander I’d seal up the package before you get to the post office and deny food when asked 🤷🏻‍♀️ or do what my mum used to do and buy things with super ambiguous packaging that could pass for errr beauty products and stuff. She sent me dog treats once and it wasn’t clear at all. ......They tasted pretty bad. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@ErinMar]

I’ve sent my brother food plenty of times. Even homemade cookies!

[@OnlyDoniaUKnow]

So I really love this video because it feels like an “everyday living in Japan” video. You went to the FABRIC STORE! Like who goes there on the regular? I loved it. I honestly was curious what kind of fabric they might sell. Style id different everywhere. And the the drugstore?! Amazing! I feel like my sisters would love those heating eye masks from the drug stores. It’s just great because, again, there is nothing like that in America

[@katnisszelda11]

Sharla, I always look forward to watching your Vlogmas videos everyday. Volgmas is always the highlight of my day. Thank you!😄

[@pattyfredericks5562]

Hi Sharla! I’m from Australia and unfortunately we do have really strict food rules, especially when it comes to dried fish and meats. I think this has a lot to do with certain parasites and such that can be carried through foods that don’t exist in Australia! However I have travelled to Japan and brought home SOOO much Japanese candy. Perhaps you can bring it into the country if you are physically there to declare it, it’s fine. I don’t know how much this would have helped, but that’s from my experience! :) loving vlogmas, I really don’t want it to end 😫❤️

[@vanessarivera7963]

Hahaha Im mailing stuff late too :P Super gonna miss vlogmas when its over, I look forward to your videos every year.

[@noeinroad7294]

Thanks for doing Vlogmas! It is fun spending so much time with you before you leave for Korea.

[@taemint9793]

try shipping the snacks from Korea!~ my friend sent me a massive box of snacks from Korea to Aus and i've sent heaps of random stuff back to Aus as well.

[@CocoCece08]

I know how you feel! I asked my husband what he would like for Christmas, and he said... "Stuff." "What kind of stuff?" "Anything is fine." Men are so hard to shop for, for sure.

[@Steph-46]

We used to send snacks and stuff to my aunt all the time when she lived in Australia, she said that as long as it is a "factory-sealed" package it is no problem (with few exeptions, like meat and similar things that can contain pests and diseases) because that is what customs had told her. We sent loads of candy and potatochips for years and all of it arrived, sometimes it had been opened and checked by customs but everthing had been ok. We did sent it from Europe though, mabye it's different from Asia.

[@marshadeitch7387]

SO HAPPY you finally got those shoes you looked everywhere. How do you stay so mellow.

[@kristinaweir2696]

It is always fascinating the different flavors that Japan comes up with for not only soda but other things as well .😃

[@DanielleSulbury]

I got a box of snacks from Japan recently. The customs label just says snacks. I'd try another post office. I can send a picture of what was written on the label if you like? I bring food into OZ all the time. Just sweets and crisps though haha. X

[@c.r.watejr5093]

Yea, Australia is WAY strict on food products coming in the country. There were some shows on Netflix and people would try to bring in the most arcane stuff from their home countries. Congratulations!!! You were able to get Keyboard San the shoes he wanted. That's a nice surprise for him!!! Hope he has what you wanted under the tree. Thank You for sharing!!!

[@candacebaughman420]

Cake flavored Pepsi. Last year during the summer they had Water melon flavored fanta. It came in a treat box that my friend had ordered. It was sssooo good. Japan comes up with the best pop flavors it seems.

[@silentxreverie]

Candace Baughman I agree! They make the most interesting and yummy chip flavors too!

[@Pivaxi]

You can send food to Australia, it’s just particular foods where you can’t. I’ve ordered food online from overseas before and got them with no problem. Our customs is super strict that’s for sure.

[@susanmay43]

I send snacks to Australia all the time. I'm fairly sure that as long as it's packaged and isn't raw food or honey, it's fine. Try a different post office perhaps.

[@AiLess]

So sharla I’m super sad my favorite KZbinr is leaving japan!! I grew up in Okinawa and I haven’t been to japan or Okinawa since I was 7 and I’m 29 now so it’s been a while and your channel helps me connect to Japan. Yeah I know there is more people to watch live in Japan but I love your personality. Regardless I’ll still watch your new life in Korea and good luck ❤️😊

[@山里美優-u4r]

I’m from Okinawa too! Do you speak Japanese?!

[@AiLess]

Miyu Yamazato I barely speak any Japanese, I understand more when I’m spoken to or hearing conversations. Aww I miss Okinawa so much! How is it there?

[@山里美優-u4r]

AiLess awe I speak Japanese though lol. But I haven’t been back to Okinawa in over a year so idk how it is now lol. But it was good last time I was there haha.

[@wernstberger]

I know the leg muscle patches you're talking about. They're amazing! I bought a pack of them in Donki.

[@lustylaws]

Watching the vlog right now & seeing your face drinking the Pepsi & I'm thinking, add a drop of Rum? 🍷

[@tamarapavolva1965]

I live in aus and our customs is strict... probably because we are an island and if anything like bugs comes in it could potentially destroy our ecosystem. So yeah it does suck that it is but its for our own good haha also im happy you got keyboard san's gift!! :)

[@MyLittleGreenHairdedMermaid]

Yeah I guess that makes sense

[@OfficialRainbowBones]

I always love that koffin sweater, where did you get it? 😍😍

[@shivp22]

NO! Don't you dare get emotional about vlogmas ending, it's too early ✋🏽😩 also, you said the word .... moist, 😖and now I have to wash my ears out with soap 😂❤️

[@kawaiikawaiianimegirl4144]

I would love to get that yo kai watch fabric! My kid would flip if he came home to a yo kai bedroom lol

[@patrickstruik4318]

Hi Sharla, continue you're posts and enjoy you and elbow-san's ventures! 🤗

[@BlueSkyeDays.]

You can send snacks to Australia. As long as it is commercially prepared and packaged food and doesn’t not contain meat or nuts then it’s fine. I sent a few huge boxes of food from Japan to my family in Aus when I was there. I also subscribe to a few of the Japanese food box’s and have family in the US who send me food all of the time. I’d try a different post office.

[@reinak1063]

Omg 5 more days until vlogmas ends 😭😭 I’m gonna miss vlogmas so much

[@marljusweety6606]

Rugsprø is a combination of the word for rye and crispy. Its crispy "bread" made with rye flour.

[@MarkandMarie]

We will miss you too! I want to try those leg patch things now! Husbans gets like terrible cramps and kicking things at night. I wonder if they would help with that.

[@angelicpoison9100]

that pubic hairbrush XD ... when you are all relaxed watching Sharla & Taylor's vlogs and then Sharla is like "PUBIC HAIRBRUSH" and your eyes go O.O and you freeze XD lololol love you Sharla!! XD

[@maddiimaddii]

Sharla, you might be able to send snacks from Korea to Australia. 😁 I'm Australian and my friend in Seoul sent me all kinds of Korean convenience store snacks, so hopefully you'll be able to as well! 🌟

[@zierrahikari1122]

Where did sharla found the dragon ball fabric? I want to buy some for my brother back at home probably 😂 I never saw any fabric store before this in japan 😂😂

[@buggybugs1818181818]

Marry vlogmas day 20 sharla ^_^ I hope you are having a good day today

[@pandapoof8798]

Japan has such great skincare stuff and relaxation things. All I have is tiger balm and salonpas 😭

[@rachelfrank346]

Love spinach too. I thrown it into anything and everything.

[@Temater]

The rug sprø bread from Wasa is a swedish hard bread made with rye. Really good :)

[@georgiacarslaw9890]

The pubic hair brush, that just reminded me of Billy Connaly's question/rant about that

[@annebjorge]

Hey Sharla! Iam from Norway and we have those crackers😁. They mean rye crisp: Rug sprø😁👍 They are good😊

[@vanessar9263]

love this vlogmas so much, watch it religiously everyday!

[@evieluna6060]

I live in Australia and my Japanese friend sent me some things for Christmas! In the box there was those candy things that you mix with water and make them, idk haven't done it yet, and he just wrote "candy" on the outside of the box and it was all okay? It could just be the type of food you were trying to send, but I think sealed candy should be absolutely fine!!

[@5feetaway326]

Glad you've finally found those shoes for keyboard San !

[@MissKobi1]

Hey Sharla! I live in Australia and I buy snacks online from Japan all the time and have no issues with customs. I don't think you would have a problem either. I even brought some home on the plain when I last visited and it was fine. I'm sure your friend will love her gift regardless. I really want to try one of those pubic hair brushes hahahaha. Love your work Sharla Xo Kobi

[@sophiat9111]

Hey Sharla, i was wondering if there will be another 'get fit with me'-video?

[@emilyk4146]

;_; omg sharla you broke my heart haha I absolutely love that christmas pepsi soda beyond any other soda I've ever had

[@sharlainjapan]

I feel like it’d be good if you like coconut? Something about it was really cocounty to me D;

[@draganapopovic8564]

Sharla I love the Weezing sweatshirt you're wearing *.* Where did you get it I want one

[@turib6526]

all those soda flavors are wild lmao they feel like things that people had dreams about and decided to make

[@courtneys119]

that's so strange that they wouldn't let you send any of the food to Australia? I know that sending raw food & anything that could possibly contain bugs is usually prohibited, but I would've thought things like packaged snacks & stuff would be fine 🤔 My friend sent me a snack package from Slovakia which managed to get to me in Aus safely Anyway thanks for all your hard work during vlogmas, so sad that it's almost over 😭

[@jackieelizabeth8614]

Courtney S since Australia is an island we got very strick conditions, either it needs to be approved already or be pre approved. Even from Tasmania to the main land is restricted. Someone bought over frogs and basically fucked up the eco system.

[@courtneys119]

Jackie Elizabeth Yeah I know we're super strict about foods coming here (I'm from Tassie), but I assumed Sharla would've just been sending things like packaged lollies which I thought would've been safe, but hey maybe not

[@321ZER0]

Maybe the rules are changed now? Few years ago I sent my friend in Australia some snacks too and she only warned me how banana (?😂 can't really remember) or something is definitely a big no 😂 also how the value of the package has to be below certain limit for her to avoid the customs.

[@HumanoidSparky]

I agree with you, Courtney. I'm Australian, living in Australia, and I get heaps of food packages from European friends containing packaged snacks and spreads (gingerbread spread FTW!) I'm pretty sure that most packaged foods are fine, because they're made for import. It's only fresh foods that may contain harmful bacteria, such as onigiri or fresh vegetables and raw meat and bread that they don't allow. When I came back from Japan to Australia last year customs were heavily analyzing the foods that I brought back, back when I came back from America this year they didn't care about what I brought in (fresh cajun spices were allowed!), so perhaps Japan has problem foods? Or perhaps there are too many people trying to smuggle in Kobe beef?

[@stephanierestlessinseattle5261]

vlogmas is my birthday treat for the month Thank You for working so hard

[@EemiriSu]

If it’s confectionary that’s sealed you can send it Sharla! So anything made through big factories are okay! Just don’t send anything traditional or home made so to say... My boyfriend gets canned foods and pasta sent to him from France all the time and never has any problem!

[@angelad7445]

We have really strict biosecurity laws in Australia because it’s an island and we’re isolated from the other pests and diseases other countries may have that could damage the plants, sea and livestock. However when you fly over customs will generally let you through with packaged sweets and snacks so I’m shocked the post wouldn’t accept them.

[@silentxreverie]

Sharmander - what are those leg things you were talking about called? You said that they help relax the muscles in our legs, right? I'd love to get the name, and possibly a photo of the packaging, so that my friend in Japan can pick me up a box to try. I've been using those heating pads that you stick to your back or clothing to help with back pain and they've been a godsend, especially at work! I'm so thankful that she can mail them to me. Now I'm just looking for something for my leg pain and the ones you mentioned may be what I'm looking for! Any help is greatly appreciated :) Thanks! Merry Christmas!!

[@dees6129]

I would love to know too, I stand a lot at work and then sometimes have leg pain at night, so these would be great if I could get them online.

[@milky649]

Omg! I collect stamps and i would die for those stamps! SO cute!

[@jadeisntcoool]

wish i could have all of those fabrics :'-)

[@cawa_mawi7432]

Those rice ball stamps are the cutest things ever omg ❤️

[@AngelwriterCreations]

OMG I lost it at the pubic hair brush. I wonder where I can get i online...thats a good one

[@madmodder84]

aww I soo want a cake Pepsi lol I had to import a salted caramel Pepsi from the states since nothing cool comes out in Canada lol

[@laniscorer9863]

hiya i live in australia :) since Australia is an island nation out on its own we have SUCH strict controls in place to ensure that anything harmful (pests and diseases) does not come into our country and damage our eco-system because the only way in is through the borders. Be careful sending makeup Sharla x P.S ALSO If you've never seen one check out Quokkas - they are SOO CUTE :)

[@angelbaby20002229]

I love big bang never heard them before today you’re awesome

[@PunchDrunkHeartx]

I wish i could go back to japan! Everything is so nice there!!!
