每次去银座都会去GINZA SIX。虽然是豪华的空间,但却漂浮着沉稳氛围的7F的Grand Kury Cafe进行商谈,或者在B1F购买年糕等,充分利用了这一点。实际上,对于美容男和时尚男子来说,也有很多可以享受的景点。

即使是男性也能体验美容和分组,在工作间隙通过甜点重新振作精神,向女性购买美容礼物等,这是一个不论上还是好都可以使用的场所。

首先前往的是位于B1F的美容层的SHISEIDO。意外地不为人知的是,在这里接受的面向男性的格鲁明课程。根据肌肤类型选择护肤方法自不必说,就连眉毛的画法、遮住眼睛下面的熊的方法都很认真地教给我们。

特别想向商务人士推荐的是眼底下的黑眼圈。使用笔笔粉底的粉底,可以说是“遮瑕膏”(从照片上看:资生堂Siari区收藏家3600日元,资生堂白露森特妆容4200日元※以下全部不含税价格),一转眼就会隐藏在眼前! 同事问:“今天累了吗?”越是让人担心的男性越想要活用的单品。

眉毛用“画”和“模糊”组合,资生堂眉毛造型二重唱(照片下:3000日元)很方便。男性工作人员也有2人在籍,请务必接受讲解。

接着到访的是SUQQU。以“脸部肌肉按摩”而闻名的品牌,这位首席执行官吉泽勇气说,“等待预约三个月”的网格手!

因为他是一个审美眼神,就能知道那个人的脸部平衡和表情肌的状态,所以这次访问的时候也会说“在季节变换之际,总觉得脸浮肿。…”这种症状通过目测确认(笑)。请教了消除浮肿的方法。

不会对皮肤产生多余的摩擦,麝香葡萄按摩&口罩奶油(200g/10000日元)是必须的!

享受美容层后,移动到2楼。为了买送给朋友的美丽礼物,去乔马龙伦敦。从店里进店里,正面里面展示的是以稀少茶为印象的稀有茶收藏品。

贴近肌肤的纤细光滑的香味是让人陶醉的优质。我在这边的收藏品中很喜欢银质尼多朗,在微软的水上加入了紫苏和麝香葡萄的香味,透明感和色气的平衡绝妙,非常棒。

一边享受着这种新鲜的香味,一边选择送给女性朋友的礼物,是进入玻璃吊带的莱姆罗勒&曼达林的浴油(200ml/120000日元)。浴室里充满了西特拉斯、绿色和曼达林的水灵,芳醇的芳香,让人不禁想深呼吸的香味。感觉像是在享受酒店SPA的乐趣。

这里是乔马伦伦敦提倡的,不仅是特别的日子,也包含着“不经意的礼物”,包含着“不经意的礼物”的心情。在等待包装期间,推荐由熟知商品的工作人员进行手和手臂按摩(免费)。使用身体&洗手液洗完手臂和手后,用身体投诉进行按摩。再加上哥伦布香味的三步骤,是只有豪华的香氛品牌才有的幸福体验。

此外,在摆满了年糕的B2F食品楼层,还闲逛了巴黎发来的弗雷伯特店、Bejuman&伯顿。作为给喜欢红茶的朋友的礼物,寻找季节限定的茶叶。

作为适合夏天的茶叶,购买了由中国绿茶和柑橘系组合而成的清爽口感的普蒂金面(70g/1900日元)。自己用的是阿鲁格雷菲尼斯特。原本,红茶中最喜欢葡萄糖。平时就很喜欢从伦敦购买了几个红茶品牌,非常喜欢喝,但是这里混合了白色芯片这种新芽,香味和风味都很华丽! 不愧是冠以“阿鲁格雷之王”之名的口味。我想享受铁瓶茶壶。

然后,美容巡航的最后点的是人气No.1的火焰茶,使用了艾登玫瑰的冰淇淋,艾登玫瑰冰淇淋(463日元)!

含一口,香草、贝尔格、薰衣草的香味会勾起鼻子,在幸福的时刻…在这种情绪高涨的包围下,这次的美丽巡航完成了。拿着给朋友的礼物,前往人山人海的繁华街道!

I stop by GINZA SIX any time I happen to be in Ginza. I’ll have a lunch meeting at GRAND CRU CAFÉ GINZA, which offers a luxurious, relaxing atmosphere, or purchase a gift on the first belowground floor. I make the most of what it offers. For men interested in beauty and style, GINZA SIX offers many, many spots to enjoy.

GINZA SIX is useful for men, too, both on the job or off. It offers beauty and grooming experiences, refreshment with something sweet during downtime at work, and a place to purchase a beauty gift for a woman.

I head first to Shiseido on the Beauty Floor, the first belowground floor. It’s not widely known, but they offer grooming lessons here for men. The instructor gives detailed step-by-step lessons on how to select the right skin care products for your skin type, how to draw eyebrows, and even how to hide the circles under your eyes.

Speaking of which—for business men, I’d like to recommend a product for erasing those circles under your eyes. Concealer, a type of foundation applied with a pen, lets you instantly eliminate these blemishes (In the photo below, the top item: Sheer Eye Zone Corrector 3,600 yen; the middle item: White Lucent OnMakeup Spot Correcting Serum 4,200 yen; *all prices listed before tax). Do your colleagues express concern about you? Are they always asking if you’re tired? If you’re a man in this situation, I can recommend concealer as a great solution.

Eyebrow Styling Duo (the bottom item: 3,000 yen), a set for drawing and shading your eyebrows, is convenient. There are two male staff members at the Shiseido here. I recommend learning from them.

I next go to SUQQU, a brand known for its facial muscle massage. The skills of Yuuki Yoshizawa, the boutique’s lead masseur, are such that making an appointment means putting your name on a three-month waiting list!

He also has a great eye for beauty and knows, simply by eyeing your expressions, the state of balance of your facial and mimetic muscles. On my visit today, he takes a look and diagnoses the symptoms. “Your face gets a little puffy, doesn’t it, when the seasons change…?” Much to my initial chagrin and eventual amusement, he’s right on the money. He tells me about a technique for eliminating puffiness.

The SUQQU Musculate Massage & Mask Cream (200 g, 10,000 yen), which causes no excessive skin friction, is an essential.

After enjoying my time on the Beauty Floor, I move to the second floor. I head to Jo Malone London to buy a beauty gift for a friend. As you enter at the front of the space, you’ll see the Rare Teas collection, inspired by rare teas, displayed on the wall in the back.

The smooth, delicate fragrance seems to hover just above the skin, casting an enchanting spell of refinement. I love the collection’s Silver Needle Tea Cologne and use it regularly. The fragrance combines sage and musk with a faint floral aroma for an exquisite balance of clarity and seductiveness. It’s wonderful.

While enjoying this fresh aroma, as a gift for my female friend, I choose the Lime Basil & Mandarin Bath Oil (200 ml, 12,000 yen), bottled in a glass decanter. The fresh citrusy, herbal, and mandarin aromas fill your bathroom with a rich fragrance that inspires one to take deep spontaneous breaths, and the scents transport you to a hotel spa setting.

I have the product wrapped as a “Just Because” gift. It’s an idea from Jo Malone London, to give gifts for no particular reason, not just on special occasions. While I’m waiting for the gift to be wrapped, I receive a free hand and arm massage from a staff member, who also knows all about the boutique’s products. It’s something I can heartily recommend. My arms and hands are laved in the Body & Hand Wash. This is followed by a massage with the Body Crème. The third step involves applying a fragrance via cologne. It’s the ultimate experience for a luxury fragrance brand.

On the Food Floor on the second belowground floor, which offers many gift options, I wander to Betjeman & Barton, a flavored tea shop from Paris. I’m looking for a limited-edition seasonal tea to give as a gift to a friend who loves black tea.

I buy the perfect tea for summer: the refreshingly smooth Pouchkine Vert (70 g, 1,900 yen), which combines Chinese green tea and citrus flavors. For myself, I go with Earl Grey Finest. Of the black teas, I most like Earl Grey. I like drinking it so much, I often buy a number of tea brands online direct from London. But Earl Grey Finest is blended with white tips—new buds—and the aroma and flavor are brilliant. It’s a flavor that’s earned the sobriquet “King of Earl Grey.” I can hardly wait to brew it in my iron kettle.

The last thing I order on this beauty outing is an ice cream cone (463 yen) made with the store’s most popular flavored tea, Eden Rose.

I take a bite. The vanilla, bergamot, and lavender flavors delight the nose. It’s a blissful moment. The excitement stays with me as today’s beauty hunt comes to an end. With the gift for my friend in hand, I head into the hustle-and-bustle of the main street.
