For me, the highlights of Chicca’s summer 2014 Summer Horizon makeup collection are the lip items. The two new shades of Mesmeric Gloss On look eye-catching (the golden 04 Monochrome Gold and the pink 05 Moon Pink with sparse blue-toned shimmer).

Voce has posted information on and images of Anna Sui‘s fall 2014 makeup collection. The collection includes a new range of lipsticks as well as two new base makeup items (Loose Powder Foundation (7 shades, ¥4800) and Creamy Foundation Primer (1 shade, ¥3000)).
See additional images on Maquia and Twitter.
It seems that the new cut-glass look, first featured by Rose Cheek Color N, will be the predominant style of packaging of Anna Sui’s future makeup products.
According to Voce, the two new base makeup items will be released in Japan on September 4th, and, according to Maquia, the new lipstick range will be available in Japan from August 1st.

For spring 2014, there are three additional variations of Nouvelle Eyes and the new look is also seen on the new Sleek Face cream blushers.
