Apparently the guy that invented the Japanese model, named it so.
It supposedly meant bi-ura (behind the scene of beauty)
I was looking around for the gomu (rubber thingy) that needs to be changed every so often.
Not sure how long ago it was but I couldn't find the right size and was cutting the rubber thingy that I had bought to fit somewhat.
Recently I went to Hands (previously Tokyu Hands) and asked if they could order the right size for me, and was told that in order for them to do that, I would need to order 3 packages! I don't change the rubber thingy too often so I didn't want to have 9 of them around...
Then I looked at the maker's website, but they were gonna charge me more for the shipping than for the actual item.
Finally I found out that Yodobashi Camera could order it for me and they were even going to give me a discount! whoo!
Oh and nowadays no one uses the word byura because when I asked the person at Hands she started to bring me to the dental section...they just call it ailasshu ka-ra (eyelash curler)...ha!

those rubber thingy things are so expensive! For a while, everyone wanted a Shu Uemura curler and the rubber things cost almost as much as the curler.
Good tip, Yodobashi. I don't curl my lashes anymore. too lazy and I think I'm on the lucky side because my lashes kinda curl upwards. In fact if I use the curler, the mascara smears on my eyelids.

V, This maker is rather cheap, I think, was supposed to be 220 yen for the 3 in the package but Yodobashi sold it to me for 172! Mascara always makes me look like a panda..ha!
Take care!

I was amused by the last paragraph Kat!
Yay Yodobashi!! My lashes are so short and sparse now, I don't even bother anymore. ☹️
