What are your carry-on essentials? Passport, credit card, smartphone, flight ticket, backpack, clothes, purse… and, of course, yourself! I’ve traveled before with just my passport, money, and smartphone—I could be a minimalist. But in reality, it often turns out to be a bit more complicated.
For outdoor activities like scuba diving, camel riding, and trekking in the mountains, well-used gear is essential. And to protect my skin from the strong sun, sunblock and lotion are a must.
I’m always thinking about how to downsize my stuff. Then, an idea popped into my head: What if I could bring items that might also double as souvenirs? That’s when I found the perfect face mask. “This is exactly what I need!” I thought, feeling excited.
I realized that it would be even better if the items I brought could also serve as souvenirs for the new friends I meet while traveling. And finally, I found the perfect item: a face mask.
Kabuki is a traditional Japanese performance art, famous for its unique makeup style called “Kumadori.” Once you put on this mask, you can step into the shoes of a Kabuki actor. There are two color variations: the red mask represents Kamakura Gongoro Kagemasa from the classic play Shibaraku, while the blue mask depicts the ghost of Taira no Tomomori from Funabenkei.
But don’t worry if you’re not familiar with Kabuki plays—this face mask isn’t just for professionals.
This product has never fallen short of my expectations. Every time I gave one to a friend, it was a hit, especially with my foreign friends. What’s more, the Kabuki Face Mask was introduced with the government’s approval and was selected as the official gift at the G7 Ise-Shima Summit.
I’m not only satisfied with its originality but also with its beneficial effects. It’s undeniable that the Kabuki Face Mask has earned lasting fame. Yet, its popularity continues to grow. Today, they offer a wide range of designs, from anime characters to Iron Man and even Jack Sparrow from Hollywood.
When I visited a shop that specializes in these masks, I discovered they had started offering a new, interesting service. As soon as I leaned my face toward the iPad installed in the store, my face transformed… into Doraemon, the popular Japanese anime character! It was hilarious!
How about giving your best friend this awesome gift?
