FINE LINES

This tiny bottle is big in Japan...


Two years ago, we discovered Rubotan, an eyeliner so opaque and precise, it executed every cat-corner and lash line with incredible force. If eyeliner were an Olympic Sport, this would be three-time champion. There's only one problem... you could only get it in Japan, or sometimes by phoning the Wonderland Beauty Parlor in New York's Meatpacking District and asking / begging / pleading for their last bottle.

Now the process is more streamlined, as Wonderland puts their Rubotan bottles online, so the next time your friends go to Tokyo, you can ask them to bring you Hello Kitty fashion stickers instead of makeup. (We do this all the time; it's amazing how many outfits Hello Kitty has...)

Each bottle of Rubotan costs $20, and the site hasn't sold out... yet.
