Here are some more information for Japanese Geisha Summer:
Arthur Golden's 1997 book, Memoirs of a Geisha, and the 2005 movie it inspired, teased non-Asian women, making them curious about the beauty secrets and powerfully attractive qualities of geisha, of Japanese women, and perhaps of Asian women in general.
Many Japanese-inspired fashion and beauty products were introduced immediately before the movie reached the theaters. Coach offered a Japanese silk-and-mink kimono hobo bag. Cole Haan featured stiletto boots covered in antique Japanese silk. Banana Republic launched a limited-edition holiday collection inspired by the movie's wardrobe, including a silk floral kimono sash-tie top, a quilted geisha bag, an Asian-style tassel necklace, and a satin kimono dress. Facial and body creams featured cherry-blossom-themed packaging and the same image of the movie's star, Zhang Ziyi, that graced billboards, newspaper ads, and even the cover of a special edition of the book.
In late 2005 American women heard a lot about the Japanese geisha. Yet what relevance could the geisha have for American women beyond a book to read, a movie to watch, and some expensive boots to wear? My investigation into the history of the geisha in both Japan and Korea, combined with my research with over four hundred Asian and American single women and men, convinced me that the Asian Geisha (my term for the blending of the Japanese geisha and the Korean kisaeng) offers many lessons for American women who want to be married, soon, to their Good Men. The golden age of the Japanese geisha and her attitude toward men dates from 1841, when she was accorded by law the status of "entertainer" or "artist."
I have adapted Asian Geisha practices somewhat to fit twenty-first-century Western/American culture while continuing to emphasize the geisha's performance or entertainment skills. In particular, I have upheld the concept of the Asian Geisha, as embodying the archetypes of beauty and femininity.

Ed Hardy Fragrances Capture Tattoo Fierceness
Just as Von Dutch cast a cool slant on trucker hats (of all things!), Ed Hardy effortlessly draws the style out of gritty tattoo art. From tabloid princesses like Britney Spears to serious artists like Diddy, everyone who matters is waltzing about Tinseltown donned in Ed Hardy gear, head to toe. Ed Hardy spins streetwear into luxury statements by embellishing his vibrant body art images onto his shirts and hats. Hardy has recently ventured into the sensory area to produce four great fragrances.Scrawled with vintage tattoo designs, Ed Hardy fragrance bottles ooze the language of ultra-hip.
Love & Luck Woman
The clear, white bottle is enlivened with a stylized, feminine icon of a Japanese geisha. Lucid notes of natural Japan - jasmine, cherry and bergamot - stand out, followed by warmer spiced and sandalwood tones. Fragrance designer Adriana Medina crafted this scent as a delightful variation on Dolce & Gabanna's perfume Light Blue. Ed Hardy's Love & Luck Woman captures D&G's hottest bright, floral scent at a cheaper price. If you're looking for a bright infusion, this fragrance is definitely worth the buy.
Ed Hardy Women
Perfumer Caroline Sabas, the woman rumored to be behind Kim Kardishian's future fragrance, highlights floral, ruby characters for this uber feminine aroma. The pink bottle captures the rock-and-roll romance of this perfume, with a skull, blood-red heart and roses linked together with a flared banner in true bad-ass tattoo style. Zests of grapefruit and tropical flavors introduce the scent, while fruity strawberry aromas overwhelm. With the warmness of musk, this scent rounds off nicely.
Love & Luck Man
Olivier Gillotin, a masterful fragrance architect, builds this woody, musky scent as a tribute to the wild lights and nightlife of Tokyo. This scent offers a crafted, modern, clean and masculine smell. Ed Hardy's Love & Luck Man transmits sensations of the Japanese Orient with a cypress, absinthe and mandarin cocktail. This devil-may-care fusion is captured within a bottle inked with Ed Hardy's gambling iconography of dice, cards, and golden chips.
Ed Hardy Men
Ed Hardy Men, another popular scent from Olivier Gillotin, fuses refreshing citrus scents. The black vintage tiger emblazoned on the bottle captures the rawness of this fragrance's ambition. Ed Hardy Men proudly infuses top notes of sage and zest grounded by soulful musk and amber. As result, you have a solid masculine scent for the summer months.

Know any good chinese or japanese skin whitener products?
I'm chinese and if you don't already know, light skin is considered beautiful elegant, etc... in asian cultures (yeah, we know we are already pretty light but we like to be lighter) Its just like how some people from european, american, and other countries like a tanned look (also considered beautiful). I tan easily and summer's here again, so the sun's out to get me. I am in a marching band so I do a lot of parades in the grueling sun. AND stupidly enough i bought a season pass to an amusement park again (couldn't help it). Staying out of the sun is already a given.. but its almost impossible with the band and Wonderland... besides that would just maintain my skin colour [which isnt that dark YET (because i do get lighter during the winter months)] and not lighten it. I don't want to be geisha white, but light enough 
hope that makes sense to those who don't understand the whole skin lightening thing, its basically a cultural thing.
Wear sunscreen everytime you go out, make it part of your routine, this will protect your face from any possible tanning.
Lemon juice is a natural bleaching agent because of acidic
There are actually a lot of home remedies for lightening skin,
