Hi guys,

The following items were send to me for free, so I could review them. As always when I write a sponsored post, the fact that I received these for free, will not affect my opinion in any way! 


After covering the topic of Asian skincare earlier this month, it's time to introduce the world to some more cute Asian things. You gotta love the Asian culture, right? ;)


Do you guys know Tasty Peach Studios? Tasty Peach Studios is the cutest webshop you've ever seen, I promise you that! ;) Think cute, sweet, adorable and kawaii! But what is "kawaii" exactly? 


According to Wikipedia, the word kawaii means lovable, cute or adorable. The word is used in the Japanese culture to measure the quality of cuteness and became a prominent aspect of Japanese popular culture, entertainment, clothing, food, toys, personal appearance and behavior. The original definition of kawaii came from Lady Murasaki, a Japanese novelist and poet. (Lady Murasaki also was the Japanese aunt of Hannibal Lecter in the movie "Hannibal Rising", by the way. Just a quick fact in between! ;) Haha!) but as the years went by, the word kawaii was being used more often to describe cute handwritings and cute merchandise in the 70's, 80's and later on. The kawaii style is known for the large eyes, the cheerful colors, the happiness and, of course, the overal cuteness. Think Hello Kitty and Pokemon, to give you some examples. Click on the Wikipedia link above to learn more about Kawaii.


Tasty Peach Studios, located in Mishawaka, Indiana, is the leader distributor in cute products. It's a sweet, unique boutique that sells cute merchandise inspired by Japan. They started out selling small hand made clay charms and commissioned artwork through their little Etsy shop in 2007. Since then they have grown exponentially. They now attend upwards of 30+ anime conventions a year & ship high quality acrylic items, professionally made products and more world wide every day. 


I had the chance to choose a charm and a lanyard of their accessories collection and I can't wait to show you all that cuteness! ;)


Charms and lanyards aren't typically what I normally review here at Reviewed By Natje, but because of the overwhelming cuteness of the webshop, and my obsession with Asian things and kawaii, I decided to make an exception this time.




Look at that! ;)



Hi guys,

Before we start, I wanna say this is a sponsored post. I received the product mentioned in this review as a gift, to test it and to write my honest opinion about it. The fact that I was gifted this product, will not affect my opinion in any way! Read more about sponsoring here.


I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted! Travelling with my boyfriend isn't exactly relaxing on a poolside in a luxury hotel, you know? We've seen a lot, we walked a lot and we ate a lot! ;)

Budapest was a truly magic place, by the way, if you didn't visited the city already, you should definitely do so! 

Anyway, when I arrived back home, there was a package on my doorstep. Skin18, a webshop specialized in natural beauty and skincare, offers bloggers the chance to participate in their Skin 18 Challenge 1 - 100's reviews program, a program that provides bloggers and reviewers with free stuff to review. I received the Beauty Friends II Aroma Essence Mask Sheet Pack.




Hi guys,

How 're you all doing today?


We can't get over the fact that Asian beauty products and clothing are quite popular these days. I had the chance to experience some Asian skincare brands in the past and I do understand the hype quite well. Some of my favorite brands, like TonyMoly and Skin79 are Korean brands and I do love my TonyMoly Luxury Gem Gold 24k Facemask and my Skin 79 Oriental Gold Plus BB Cream to bits! ;)


In my search to Asian skincare, I stumbled upon a little adorable shop called Milk Club, a whole shop fully packed with the cutest Asian clothing and beauty items. Kawaii, Harajuku, dolly, ... You name it, they have it! ;) I felt like Alice in Wonderland, just popping out that tunnel, I can tell you that! ;)




To make sure I wasn't dreaming, I created a little wishlist, to show you what Milk Club is all about, so... Got milk? (oh my, I'm so funny today, I'm on fire! :D Lol!)
