Here’s an AMAZING Gift!
Shikohin Gift Set with a Daruma doll!
Shikohin is offering you three special, intentional gift sets (all under $50) this holiday season
with traditional touches that will show your loved ones how much you care.
In each gift set, there will be a paper, hand-painted Daruma doll, which is seen as a good luck charm in Buddhist culture. The doll starts out “blind” without eyes and it
is up to the recipient to draw one on as they make a wish and set an intention. The idea is that you’re making a deal with Daruma and if your wish comes true, you will draw on the
other eye and keep the figure around.
But, if your wish doesn’t come true within a year, you burn it, which is why it is made of paper. Shikonin wanted to do something more actionable than just wishing people
“happy holidays,” and the Daruma is a sign of that.
It’s also customary to give as a gift at the start of the new year, so it is perfect timing around the holidays. Additionally, the Japanese are very into the art of gifting and presentation,
so each gift set is uniquely wrapped in a beautiful blue Furoshiki cloth (the Japanese name for the traditional square-shaped wrapping cloth; and it’s blue because that is the color
of the Shikohin brand). These cloths are the most sustainable way to wrap as they can be used over and over again in lieu of wrapping paper. Some people even turn the cloths into bags
or other reusable items, making them the gift that truly keeps on giving.
THE KONJAC MOCHI TRIO $46
(Image #1 in the trio of Shikohin images)
Naturally, cleanse and exfoliate with mochi-like sponges
- Original Cleansing Konjac Sponge
- Energizing Matcha Konjac Sponge
- Purifying Charcoal Konjac
Konjac sponges are plant-based and were first used by Japanese farmers to cleanse their babies’ skin. The sponges offer gentle exfoliation and can be used for up to three months.
This set features an original sponge, an energizing matcha one that is great for brightening and a purifying charcoal version that helps with drawing out dirt and oil from pores.
In the same way that you can multi-mask, you can multi-cleanse with these sponges; a great way to do this is by using the charcoal sponge in the t-zone and either the matcha or
original sponge everywhere else. These mochi-like sponges are great for use on the body, too. Run under water before using to soften the texture.
THE ULTIMATE TOOL DUO $44

Practice holistic self-care with Shikohin custom-designed tools
- Tsubo-Oshi Massage Tool
- Ceramic Gua Sha
Tsubo means pressure points and these little nubby massage tools can hit all of the ones in your hands just from rolling them around in your palms. Another great way to use
them is by placing them on the floor and rolling your feet around on them to release tension. You’ll also receive a reflexology chart for 50+ other ways to use them. For the face,
the Ceramic Gua Sha is meant to help lift and sculpt. Apply an oil or moisturizer before gliding the ergonomic, two-pronged ceramic clay tool up along the cheekbones
and then down the neck to promote lymphatic drainage. This feels especially amazing after a few too many holiday parties.
ONSEN BATH TABLETS $34 for 3
(Image #3 in the bar)
Recreate a Japanese hot spring in the comfort of your home
- Pack of 3 Onsen Bath Tablets
For the ultimate, relaxing bath, these tablets are laced with Epsom salt, sulfur, white kaolin clay, CBD and aromatic oils of citrus and cedar. Use all three tablets
to fully immerse and transport yourself to a Japanese hot spring or use one tablet for a foot soak after a long day.
You’ll notice how the tension seems to just fade away after a nice, long soak.
This is a great gift for just about anyone! It becomes a 3 part gift that any woman would love (and maybe even a few men too!)
I highly recommend this gift because it is something that you would love and enjoy the various aspects of relaxation and clearing not only your skin but your mind too!
