Biteki.com has posted information on and an image of THREE‘s limited-edition Sakuraism collection, which will be released in Japan in spring 2016. The collection celebrates the beauty of cherry blossoms and the arrival of spring.
The collection includes:
– Whisper Gloss for Eye (2 new shades, ¥3300)
– Cheeky Chic Blush (2 new shades, ¥3000)
– Shimmering Lip Jam (3 new shades, ¥3000)
– Nail Polish (4 new shades, ¥1800)
– Sakuraism Aroma Skin Soap (80g, ¥4000)
– Sakuraism Aroma Bath Serum (150ml, ¥6000)
– Sakuraism Aroma Hand Cream (50g, ¥3000)
.
According to Biteki.com, there will be no fixed launch date in Japan. The (very romantic) idea is that the release dates of the collection will match the cherry blossom seasons throughout Japan. The collection is expected to be launched in Kyushu first. (Kyushu is Japan’s southernmost main island and where THREE has its southernmost physical retail points in Japan.)
According to this blog post from Glam.jp, the collection will be released in Kyushu in mid-March and it will also be released in Thailand and Taiwan on March 3rd.

Hacci seems to have been getting more media coverage in Japan in the last few years. (See my profile on the brand here.) I was interested in the brand’s hand creams and lip moisturizers, and I decided to go for Hand Cream in Happening.

In April, L’Occitane revamped its Pivoine Flora range and extended the Pivoine lineup with the new Pivoine Sublime skincare range. As far as I know, this is the second renewal of the original Paeonia range, which was released in 2010. (Read my review of Paeonia Eau de Toilette here.) Today I will be reviewing three items from the Pivoine Sublime range (Skin Perfector, Perfecting Cream and CC Skin Tone Perfecting Cream) and the relaunched Pivoine Flora Hand Cream.

Back in 2008, I posted about the cute nail and cuticle oils I had. As I said, they are not absolute necessities for me and I don’t use them on a daily basis. However, I did get two more in the last couple of years. (Yes, I still like the cute-looking ones……)

Today, my Stash Debut series, which highlights my first purchases from various brands/lines, focuses on Vecua Honey.
Launched in April 2011, Vecua Honey is a sister brand of the Japanese beauty brand Vecua. While Vecua (debuted in 2003) is a high-end brand sold in department stores and has a clean and sophisticated look (see my brand profile on Vecua), Vecua Honey’s image is more youthful, fun and whimsical. Vecua Honey’s products feature honey as well as other natural ingredients.
