I just came across news on Lunasol’s spring 2011 makeup collection on this Taiwanese blog. (If you like ETODs, this blog is worth following. They are beautifully done and very well-photographed.)

The information and the photo in the blog post are from the Twitter page of the deputy editor of Maquia. (It appears that the link to the image in the twit is currently off.)

The theme of the collection will be Oceanic/Aquatic Purification.

I also found this post from a Japanese blog. The photos were taken at a Lunasol press event and you can see the variations of the new eyeshadow palette series, Ocean Scene Eyes. There will also be a new range of cream eyeshadows.

After the more understated (shimmer-wise) Layer Bloom Eyes from spring 2009 and Star Shower Eyes from fall 2009, it appears that, in spring 2011, Lunasol will be continuing with the shimmery look from Nature Color Eyes from spring 2010 and Aurorize Eyes from fall 2010. No purples this time, but there are a couple of palettes with good potential!

Additional details to follow later on!

Integrate has been slowly changing its brand image. (Remember the TV ads starring Angelina Jolie when the brand was first launched several years ago?) Integrate is now a cuter and more girlie line, and the new Rainbow Grade Eyes series from Integrate’s fall 2010 makeup collection makes a clear statement regarding how the line wants to be perceived. The message is clear.

Kanebo Lunasol Aurorized Eyes 02 Light Variation Fall 2010 Makeup 1

.

Even though Lunasol is among my favorite makeup brands, I had not picked up any new item since spring 2009 (Layer Bloom Eyes in Purple Gradation). I had been looking for a neutral-toned eye palette with light neutrals (that do not create shadow or depth for the eyes) and Aurorize Eyes in 02 Light Variation from Lunasol’s fall 2010 makeup collection appealed to me. Also, I had wanted a neutral palette from Lunasol for quite some time and I decided that Light Variation was the one to go for.

There is quite a lot of excitement among Lunasol fans about Aurorize Eyes partly because it is reminiscent of Lunasol’s Geminate Eyes back in fall 2007. (Lunasol’s eye palettes usually feature four colors, and Geminate Eyes was the last eye palette series featuring five colors in each variation. This makes Aurorize Eyes a long-awaited sequel.) Also, many of those who like Geminate Eyes look forward to the shimmery finishes of the shades.

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.

Have a look at the posts below for (more) swatches of the collection items.

Integrate Fall 2010 Makeup Collection

I was waiting to see swatches of the new Rainbow Grade Eyes palettes. BE303 (wrongly named as BR303 in the article) is the one I want to try the most, and the colors do still look very good. PK309 also looks nice. On the other hand, the purple in VI708 looks a little too greyish for me.

Finally we see the close-ups of the Aurorize Eyes palettes. The shades in the middle of the palettes appear to be intensely shimmery. I still think I will be trying 02 Light Variation. (Some of the colors look a little washed out possibly (at least partly) due to the amount of light-reflective shimmer they have. I noticed this in the September 2010 issue of Biteki as well.)
