in -Paul & Joe, 2009 Holiday, all about Japanese cosmetics, makeup

(images/info from www.paul-joe-beaute.com)

A few days ago, I happened to see Paul & Joe‘s holiday collection in Harrods. (I didn’t expect such an early launch in the UK.) I spent some time testing out the items, and I think most of them are quite wearable. The eye palette in 001 and the two loose powder eyeshadows should be great for creating smoky eyes .




According to the Paul & Joe (English) website, the eye palettes and the eyeliners as well as the loose powder eyeshadows and the face powders are sold as sets in Japan while all of them are sold separately in the UK and the US.

All the makeup items (and the two makeup pouches and the jewelry box) are currently available in Harrods, except the new Lip Lacquer. It will be launched later, along with the repackaged fragrances (Paul & Joe Bleu & Blanc) and the two bodycare items (Body Milk and Body Treatment Oil). (I have had Paul & Joe Blanc for a few years and I am planning to review it later.)

I quite like the colors of the packaging, as purple and gold do make a lovely combination. (But I think I would like the packaging even more if the patterns were a little more delicate.) By the way, the jewelry box retails for 15 pounds, which I think is relatively reasonable.

Other seasonal collections from Paul & Joe:

Hi Jamilla,

I certainly prefer the Spellbound palette to Mesmerize. The slightly warmer neutrals definitely suit my complexion better. I am glad that you enjoy wearing this palette! :)

Thank you for stopping by again! :)
