Makeup, Skincare, Fragrance and a Bit of Fashion
From the category archives:
With purple, green, blue, and orange paired with brown, silver and gray, RMK‘s spring 2012 Sprinkling Colors makeup collection has bursts of color as well as touches of neutral hues. Today I am reviewing three items from the lineup: Sprinkling Eyes in 01 Brown, Ingenious Natural Eyes N in 07 Purple, and Sprinkling Cheeks in 03 Brown.

Kanebo Coffret d’Or‘s Wide Gradation Eyes is from the line’s spring/summer 2012 makeup collection. As most of Coffret d’Or’s eyeshadow palettes contain four shades, the new series, with five shades in each variation, certainly caught my attention. Four variations are available, and I decided to go for 04 Deep Brown.

I still remember seeing Paul & Joe Beauté‘s beautiful debut collection for spring 2002 in Biteki magazine. Over the years, the style of the packaging has remained the same, which I think is one of the elements that reflect the success of the line. It is the combination of the soft and feminine product packaging design and the seasonal fashion-inspired Collections Sparkles, which are based on designer Sophie Albou’s catwalk creations.
Paul & Joe’s spring 2012 Meow! makeup collection celebrates the line’s 10th anniversary, and the inspiration of the collection is Albou’s love of cats. Today I am featuring Face & Eye Color CS in 078 Purr-fect and Lipstick C in 077 Catwalk.

Happy New Year, everyone!
In my first post in 2012, I will be sharing my thoughts on Visée‘s Glam Glow Eyes in GR-4. The Glam Glow Eyes series (available in 5 variations) is from Visée’s fall 2011 makeup collection. I have previously reviewed BR-3.

According to Giorgio Armani‘s website, the Eyes to Kill Silk Eye Shadow (“Eyes to Kill Intense Eye Shadow” on the brand’s website) has a hybrid texture (between a powder and a cream) and provides smooth and lasting color. 16 shades are available (along with 2 limited-edition shades for holiday 2011), and today I am highlighting 2 Lust Red, 4 Pulp Fiction, and 7 Sweet Fire.

In the last few years, RMK brought out deluxe makeup palettes for the holiday seasons. (See the palettes for 2008, 2009, and 2010.) There is no exception for holiday 2011, and today I am taking you though RMK Christmas Palette 2011.

For the last few years, Paul & Joe has been releasing a wide range of items for the holiday season. For holiday 2011, there are makeup and bodycare products as well as a clutch bag. Among the collection are 5 Ornamental Self Select Eye Colors, each of which is packaged in a decorative box of a different design. Today I am highlighting 001 and 004.

As with some of the previous years, SUQQU released two limited-edition Christmas Makeup Kits for the brand’s holiday 2011 collection. Both 2011 Christmas Makeup Kit A and B feature a limited-edition variation of Blend Color Eyeshadow, Eye Makeup Remover R, Eye Cream R, and Original Pouch. Today I am featuring 2011 Christmas Makeup Kit B, and I am focusing on Blend Color Eyeshadow in EX-06 Usuchaori.

Visée‘s Glam Glow Eyes series is from the line’s fall 2011 makeup collection. From what I have read, with its lovely packaging and easy-to-wear tone-on-tone color combinations, the series appears to be very well-received. After the positive experience with Visée’s Glam Shade Eyes in GR-5 (from spring 2011), I decided to go for Glam Glow Eyes in BR-3 and GR-4. Today I am reviewing BR-3.

Inspired by the glamour, vibrancy and sophistication of New York City, Paul & Joe‘s Manhattan fall 2011 makeup collection features eye-catching shades housed in the brand’s usual feminine and elegant packaging. The focus of the collection is on colorful but wearable hues for the eyes and warm-toned shades for the lips and cheeks, and today I am highlighting Face & Eye Color CS in 073 42nd Street & Lipstick C in 072 SoHo.
