SUQQU Fall 2010 Makeup Website 1

(image from www.suqqu.com)

.

I stopped by the SUQQU counter in London’s Selfridges a couple of days ago and tested items from the brand’s fall 2010 makeup collection. All the colors in the new Blend Color Eyeshadow palettes are very smooth and silky. (The top two shades are shimmery, and the bottom two shades are softly matte.) Even the eyelining shades are more or less as smooth and silky as the other shades and they have a soft and airy quality. (The eyelining shades in the previous Blend Eyeshadow palettes were slightly drier than the other shades in the palettes.)

My favorite one is 01 Kakitsubata (pictured above and below). As pointed out by Hiroko (see the link for swatches), Kanebo-owned brands/ lines often bring out eye palettes with medium gold and dark blue. Intriguingly, I was never interested in this color combination until I saw this palette.

Also, according to one of SUQQU’s sales assistants:

Creamy Glow Lipstick (which is part of SUQQU’s fall 2010 makeup collection in Japan and whose information is already up on SUQQU’s global website) won’t be launched in the UK until March 2010.

Powder Eyeshadow and Powdery Cheeks, which have been discontinued in Japan, will still be available in the UK for the foreseeable future. (See my review of Powdery Cheeks in Ashibi and Oshiroibana here.)

I have received Lunasol’s Aurorize Eyes in 02 Light Variation (from the brand’s fall 2010 makeup collection). It looks soft and pretty, and I can’t wait to try it. I will post the review soon.

Suqqu Powdery Cheeks 11 Ashibi 1

.

When I had a chance to stop by SUQQU in Selfridges in London for the first time in 2006, I was very impressed by how soft and smooth the blushers were. Among the shades available, the wearable 11 Ashibi really caught my eye at the time.

When I heard about SUQQU’s planned revamp a few months ago, my instant reaction was that I really wanted to get Ashibi as soon as I could. (SUQQU’s fall 2010 makeup collection, which marks the start of the brand’s renewal, is out in Selfridges now.)

11 Ashibi is a moderately pigmented muted warm dusty pink. It has a softly matte finish and does not have any shimmer. It goes on a little more vibrant than it looks in the pan. Color-wise, it really suits my slightly warm-toned complexion, and, texture-wise, the soft and silky powder melts into the skin effortlessly.

It goes on quite sheer initially, but the color is buildable. It is an exceptionally natural color for my complexion, and I love the understated and elegant look it creates.

Kanebo Sensai Eye Shadow Palette ES 02 Kaede Momiji 1

a

In most countries outside Asia, the Sensai line would be the only line available under the Kanebo brand. Last month, I reviewed Sensai’s Cellular Performance Mask and Hydrachange Mask. Sensai also carries base and point makeup items (as well as bodycare and haircare products), and, today, I am featuring the line’s Eye Shadow Palette in ES 02 Kaede Momiji.

Sensai’s Eye Shadow Palette range was launched in February 2009 as part of the line’s revamped point makeup collection. (See my post on this back in 2008.) The range currently includes four variations. ES 02 Kaede Momiji is the warmer one of the two neutral palettes.
