With fresh and colorful packaging, Kracie’s Aroma Resort bodycare line caught my attention a couple of years ago. I had a chance to test some of the products from the line last year and I went for Hand Cream in Happy Sweet Peach.

Fall 2009 was a good season for fans of Japanese cosmetics. It saw the launches of Addiction and THREE, both of which have been major players on the Japanese beauty scene. A few months ago, I shared my thoughts on Addiction’s Lip Gloss in 033 Factory Girl in my Stash Debut series, and today we will look at THREE and Shimmering Color Veil in 35 Shadowland, my first purchase from the brand.

Parado is a Japanese budget beauty brand that is available in 7-Eleven stores in Japan. Currently, it carries base makeup, point (color) makeup, nail items and skincare items. The brand released its summer 2015 makeup collection in Japan on April 22nd, and the new Eyeshadow & Base (4 variations (including 2 limited editions), ¥1200) is looking tempting to me.

I am sure many of you know about the Isetan chain of department stores in Japan, but some of you might not be aware of Isetan’s own line of beauty products.

For spring/summer 2015, Elégance will launch Elégance Cruise, the brand’s new makeup sub-line, in Japan on March 16th. Compared with the glamorous gold packaging of the brand’s main line of makeup items, the sea-inspired look of the Cruise line has a more casual feel. Also, the products in this line are less expensive than those in the main line.
The launch collection of Elégance Cruise includes:

Canmake is a popular Japanese drugstore beauty brand with reasonably priced products, and it was on my list of brands to purchase from for years. (A few years ago, I tried a couple of Canmake items that were kindly passed on to me from a friend.) Some time ago, I decided to get Cheek Gradation in 06 Candy Stripe. (Since then, I picked up a couple more products, which I will talk about later.)
