Japan’s MTG is a manufacturer of very unique and effective innovative beauty goods based on revolutionary ideas and technology.  Their original product, the Beauty Roller, has had proven success in its effectiveness.

Their latest creation, which was gifted at the lounge, is Touch Gold. Touch Gold uses deep-ion technology which utilizes 24K gold eye sheets to transmit their proprietary eye treatment gel into the tissues for more effectiveness, resulting in more supple and more moisturized skin. Apply the eye treatment gel and gold eye sheets around your eyes for 20-60 minutes for optimum effect. www.mtg.gr.jp  $150.00
