alpachinco: "smithinjapan, first of all speak for yourself,"

'speak for myself' about what? I'm not standing beside a wanna-be lady Gaga 'talento', nor am I wearing a smock.

'and secondly, read the article(not even an article, more like a caption!)! there is NO mention of an award. they are promoting a new product'

Silly me, 'twas the banner she was wearing. So I change my statement to, "It's more likely the smock-like thing she is wearing, and her expression at being stood up with the silly 'カサカサ撲滅ガール' banner aside a fool".

Anyway, I actually don't mind Natsuki Okamoto (when they're not dressing her up in school girl pics!), and of course to each their own, I just think she looks pretty awful here and I think that's likely part of the look of embarrassment and/or indifference on Reina's face. In any case, it's not the greatest photo.

TokyoGas: It's more likely the smock-like thing she is wearing, and her expression at being stood up for a meaningless award aside a fool.

That Reina does not look like a model. Maybe she is has one of those easily enhanced by software faces.

Best. Thanks for your post and the info. Very useful indeed. I am normally careful with cosmetics, yet, somehow I never thought of that a simple lip balm can be dangerous. Thanks again.

Are they planning on putting that lip balm loaded with chemicals on their babies?

SPF lip balms often contain questionable chemicals that may be absorbed into your blood stream. Sunburns can adversely affect your long term health with regards to skin cancer but if you are ingesting harmful chemicals it is counter productive to use the product.

If you are going to use a lip balm get yourself a 100% all natural lip balm in a pure beeswax base. There should be no compromise when picking out a lip balm for your personal use. Go natural or don’t go at all!

What are those fury pouches on Reina Triendle costume for? Did she transmogrified herself into a marsupial. They look like marsupium to complete postnatal development. Or just to stay in sync with the picture of the lots of babies in the background. It suggest she will need more.

It seems that Ettusais Lip Essence either has bad side effect as or "talent" Natsuki Okamoto applied too much and she cannot shut her mouth any more. Nice hairstyle she has, otherwise. Just don't let her close to those babies she will scare the living daylight out of them. Even out of me.

The baby in the background must be the worlds most used stock photo of a baby.

At least the model looks about as excited as anyone in her position should be.

Wow, since I last saw Torindoru (I think it was on London Hearts), she must have put on 20 pounds. You can find her type in the thousands in any German or Austrian city. Maybe they would all be talents in Japan? Basically she went from super-hot to normal. I guess it's time for her to think about a plan B.

...and “talent” Natsuki Okamoto

Great use of sarcasm quotes. I always have to laugh at how ironically-nuanced English words often sound when hijacked into Japlish (talent > tarento).

@JapanGal "I thought it was another wax museum picture."

haha.... so did I.

Oh my goodness! What is that woman wearing? Seriously? Fur pockets?

Reina Trendle is the plainest-looking model I've seen in quite some time. This must be a bad picture, surely? I thought the beast on the right was another drag queen, but the "19-year-old model" looks neither 19 nor like a model.

Very poor. I demand a bikini shot of Ebi-chan to make up for this sudden downgrade in pic of the day shots.

Faux fur and feathers, hairspray and teased wigs, spandex that travels, pearl bows and g-strings, manic big smile, next to "just wondering", these are a few of their most "chapped lip-ist" things...

Hey, the 3rd day in a row of a pair of glamorous ladies!

For dry, chapped lips I recommend my kisses, or at least some 100 yen shop flavored "lip kurimu."

Natsuki Okamoto, 22 ??? she must be 40+

Actually I was thinking Reina looks at least 30+ in this photo... she looks like a slightly haggard yochien mum, fashion and all.

My wife was watching this on TV. Natsuki was acting like a total wingnut. It was really embarrassing.

Moderator: Her age has been corrected.

That's Natsuki Okamoto? Lools like that old race queen lady that I see on TV always wearing those types of high leg bathing suits.

Why does Reina face looks like she's saying "Why am I up here with this crazy looking woman?"
