Today my Stash Debut 2012 series continues with Fasio’s Glass Reflection Eyes in BR-2.
Like Elsia, which I featured in Part 1 of the series, Fasio is a drugstore beauty line owned by Kosé. It currently carries base makeup, point makeup, and suncare items. The Glass Reflection Eyes series (5 variations, ¥1575) was released in Japan on July 16th 2011 as part of the line’s fall 2011 makeup collection, and I went for the gold-toned BR-2.

Kosé Cosme Decorte’s AQ MW (a line in collaboration with Dutch industrial designer Marcel Wanders) has released its summer 2012 makeup collection in Japan on April 16th to follow the line’s debut makeup collection for spring 2012. It features bright cool-toned shades for the eyes, and I particularly like the rose pink for the lips.
The collection includes:

6th: Lunasol

Looking at all the pinks and peaches in Lunasol’s spring 2012 makeup collection, I feel as if I were looking at colors from Jill Stuart packaged in Lunasol cases. It is a very spring-like, coherent, and wearable collection, but I think it is a little too safe and that it lacks the flair and imagination that many of Lunasol’s past collections had. This is mainly why Lunasol is not among my top three collections this season.

Today I am launching a new series: Stash Debut 2012. In the last few months, I purchased a few items from Japanese beauty lines I had never purchased from before and I also bought eyeshadow palettes from Japanese lines which I hadn’t previously own eyeshadows from. I have been trying these items, and, in the next few months, I will be sharing my thoughts on them. First up in the series, I am reviewing Elsia‘s Luxe Shine Eye Color in E-5.

10th: AQ MW

With Kosé Cosme Decorte’s Magie Deco not releasing a collection for spring 2012, my attention is naturally moving towards one of Cosme Decorte’s other lines, AQ MW (Absolute Quality Marcel Wanders). The filigree patterns of the line’s debut makeup collection for spring 2012 run across the cases as well as some of the products themselves. Packaging-wise, I still prefer Magie Deco, but I certainly look forward to AQ MW’s seasonal releases in the future.

Happy New Year, everyone!
In my first post in 2012, I will be sharing my thoughts on Visée‘s Glam Glow Eyes in GR-4. The Glam Glow Eyes series (available in 5 variations) is from Visée’s fall 2011 makeup collection. I have previously reviewed BR-3.
