Kao Sofina Aube Couture Designing Impression Eyes 553 Purple Fall 2011 Makeup 1

.

Sofina‘s color makeup line, Aube, was revamped in December 2008 to become Aube Couture. I had a chance to see Aube Couture in person earlier this year and I was very impressed by the Designing Impression Eyes series, which was launched in fall 2011. I currently have four palettes from the series, and 553 Purple was the first one I purchased. It is my first ever item from Aube Couture, and therefore I am highlighting it in my Stash Debut 2012 series.

.

Coffret d’Or’s late summer 2012 makeup collection includes the new Beauty Face Shadow series (above), which features a highlighter in each variation for the lower-eye areas to help create a luminous complexion. (I am very interested in trying 02 Cream Brown.) The line’s early summer 2012 makeup collection includes the limited-edition Shine Fit Eyes, whose liquid/cream formula is rare from the line.

SUQQU Blend Color Eyeshadow 12 Konruri Summer 2012 Makeup 1

.

Launched on May 18th in Japan, SUQQU‘s Blend Color Eyeshadow in 12 Konruri (the only makeup release from SUQQU for summer 2012) replaces 01 Kakitsubata (launched in fall 2010 and discontinued on May 17th in Japan). While they do appear similar, both their color tones and color compositions are considerably different and I think most people are likely to have a clear preference for one over the other. Today I am taking a closer look at 12 Konruri.
