When traveling in Japan, how could you miss the super-famous Ichiran ramen? Even in Taiwan, I'd heard how famous it was, so when I came to Japan, I still wanted to try it for myself and experience the appeal of Japanese ramen.

Ichiran's most distinctive feature is its original "flavor concentration booths." Everyone has their own little booth, so you can focus on enjoying the ramen in front of you without worrying about the people next to you. It's also a great place to eat when traveling alone. When ordering, you can choose the richness of the broth, the firmness of the noodles, the spice level, and the amount of garlic according to your preferences, creating a bowl of ramen that best suits your taste.

When choosing sunscreen, I care not only about sun protection but also about how it feels on my face. After all, I need to wear it for long periods every day when commuting to work, shopping, or traveling. If the texture is too heavy or sticky, it really makes it less pleasant to use.

This sunscreen is marketed as a moisturizing watery essence. It has a hydrating texture and is relatively easy to spread, making it suitable for people who like a moisturized feel and don't want their skin to feel too dry. Apply sunscreen before going out for daily skin protection and to make your skincare routine more complete!

Sunscreen is definitely an essential item on any shopping list! This time, I'm sharing Kao Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Gel. It's a sunscreen worth checking out for anyone who likes a light, refreshing feel and dislikes stickiness.

I really care about how sunscreen feels when applied. Some sunscreens feel heavy and sticky afterward, especially when traveling in summer and walking around outside all day. I really don't like that stuffy, uncomfortable feeling on my skin.
