Question:
I got the gold in Japan when i was there a few months back. I couldn't figure out the difference betwen the gold and the silver bottle, so just got the gold as i thought it would the premium one.
however, i just looked on SN and found out that the goldt is also waterproof.
anyone got comments on the difference between the two? i'm looking to getting another bottle, but trying to decide between the two. would the silver be less pore clogging as it isn't waterproof, or would they really be the same?
TIA!

Answer:
I asked this SA in Japan about it and she goes do you spend a lot of time outside? And I said I walk to the train station and walk around the city and she said I should get the silver one I'd only used the gold one before and I still haven't tried my silver one so I'm not sure. Sorry this post is really unhelpful
Anyway!! I stopped using them because my skin's gotten too dry to use them. I stocked up in Japan so I've got a couple of unopened gold ones and a silver one if you want any. But I bought them in 2005 so I don't know if they're any good still.

Answer:
what a funy thing to ask. waterproof wouldnt have anything to do with the amount of time you spen in the sun would it??
thanks for the offer, i've got a friend buying them cheap for me in japan
xx

Answer:
I've never used either personally, but from what I can gather from the Japanese website...
Gold: Water and sweatproof. For the outside elements, eg. beach resort and skiing.
Silver: For general everyday use, like going to "town" and playing sports.
I guess, Gold is more "stronger"...

Answer:

Answer:
I read cosme.net all the time My japanese is rather limited but enough to pick out the major points of a product (ie: staying powder, effectiveness etc). It's a really good place to read up on japanese skincare and makeup because those things are obviously not available all round the world for MUAers to review. Either way I don't imagine the difference between the two products would be huge.

Answer:
i wanted to read reviews of the Majolica Majorca mascaras as MUA only had reviews of one
I"m so jealous of you girls!

Answer:
Don't be, I'll have a look for you though I am not sure how much I will be able to to decipher
To my knowledge, the most popular MM mascara is the Lash Expander (said to lengthen lashes up to 15x) so I guess I'll give a run through of some cosme user comments for that one.
Cosme users comment that it is a very LONG LASTING waterproof mascara. Most felt that it lengthened and provided volume but got a little dry on the lashes as the day wore on. Some also commented that the design of the brush made application easy and fuss free.
I also read urcosme.net which is bascially the taiwanese version of MUA. It's completely in chinese (not sure if that is any better than japanese for you). However it has a lot of reviews on asian skincare/mu too
