Here is a quick look at Anna Sui‘s limited-edition Dolly Girl makeup items for 2011. The items include three lipsticks and three mascaras (lengthening (red packaging), volumizing (blue) and curling (yellow)).

RMK‘s spring 2011 Spring Shimmer makeup collection is a whimsical and colorful collection with both vibrant and wearable shades. The items include those for eyes, cheeks, lips, and nails, and many of them impart a fresh veil of glistening shimmer on the face. Today I am highlighting some of the items in the collection.

Crayon & Powder Eyes is one of the brand’s new products. Each of the double-ended eyeshadows contains one shade in two finishes, a color-rich creamy finish from the crayon and a soft and shimmery finish from the powder. The slim ring of color on the product allows speedy identification of the shade.

Here is an image I came across on 2Channel of what should be Kosé Esprique‘ summer 2011 makeup collection. The line will be re-named “Esprique” (previously Esprique Precious) and there will be an image revamp. I quite like the look of the new eyeshadow palette.
It is interesting that two of the megabrands (Kanebo’s Coffret D’Or and Kosé’s Esprique Precious) are updating their images this year and bringing out black packaging. This means that all the megabrands (the two plus Shiseido’s Maquillage) will have items with black cases.
Also, the new look seems to resemble that of Kosé’s Visée.

“One Stroke Beauty” is the tagline of the line, as the items are designed to save time and they will be quick and easy to use. (The colors on the right side of the eyeshadow palettes are designed to be used separately or mixed together, and the lip colors will impart both color and gloss on the lips.)
The collection will be launched in Japan on March 25th and in the rest of Asia from May. The new brand website (esprique.com) will go live on March 25th.

Coffret D’Or‘s Eyes Appeal Shadow is from the line’s spring 2011 makeup collection. The collection is part of the line’s first image revamp, as the image goes from elegant and sophisticated to friendly and amiable.
Eyes Appeal Shadow is available in five variations. All the variations are combinations of a selection of light and airy colors and a very dark lining shade. The lilacs in 02 Fairy Pink and 05 Silver Purple seem to be too light for me, and I went for the ultra-wearable 01 Sweet Brown.
