If you’re a little short on live octopus tentacles the next time you need a beauty treatment, Tokyu Hands will happily sell you this pink plastic Vacu & Lift Roller. I’m not sure what lasting beautification this device is supposed to deliver, but if I ever see someone walking down the streets of Shibuya looking like they just face-wrestled a cephalopod, I’m going to ask them.
If you’d like to visit a Tokyu Hands store and all my favorite stuff to do in Shibuya visit my other blog, The Tokyo Guide I Wish I’d Had.

Funny! I thought there was a new “flavour” for beauty masks after snail and snake ^^. I just love Tokyu Hands I miss it.
I love Tokyu Hands too! Sometimes I just take the elevator to the top floor and walk down through all the departments, just looking at all the wacky stuff they sell. It changes all the time!
If you find out that it removes cat hair, please let me know.
Ahahaha, I’m buying you one so you can test it on that worthy application!
