Japan – The Land of the Rising Sun and also the land of innovative products we never thought we needed. Although we can’t drop our work and head to Japan to hunt down all those interesting beauty buys we hear so much about, Don Don Donki, the recently opened 24-hour Japanese discount store located at Orchard Central brought a piece of Japan to us.

From powder cleansers to jelly-textured exfoliators, here are some raved about products and some unique ones you need to try from Don Don Donki.
