Dior Spring 2011 Makeup 2

.

Here is a quick look at Dior‘s spring 2011 makeup collection. The limited-edition star item of the collection is Dior Cannage Palette, which is available in two variations. (You can see the packaging of the palette here.)

Grey is the main color scheme of the collection. Though chic and sophisticated, greys are usually too cool-toned for my complexion. Also, I am not really impressed by the packaging of the Dior Cannage Palette. It seems to be very similar to the holiday makeup palettes that have been released in the last few years. Overall this is certainly not one of my personal favorite seasonal makeup collections from Dior, although I would be interested in seeing the grey-toned Dior Addict Ultra Gloss (image below) in person.

Have a look at the rest of the collection:

RMK Face Powder EX 1

.

Launched in September in the UK, RMK‘s new loose powder, Face Powder EX, combines the soft and delicate loose powder and the ease of use and the potability of pressed powder. Four shades are available, and today I am highlighting the shade in P-00.

Kanebo Coffret D'Or Spring Summer 2010 Powder Foundation Case 1

.

Since Sofina Raycious was discontinued, I have not been adding many foundation cases to my collection. But when I saw this case on-line, I thought I might decide to have it at some point.

Kanebo Coffret D’Or‘s spring/summer 2010 base makeup collection doesn’t feature a new powder foundation, but it does include this powder foundation case, which can house powder foundations from Coffret D’Or (Lasting Power Pact UV and Silky Fit Pact as well as previous versions such as Beauty Lasting Pact UV and Beauty Essence Pact). It can also house some of the powder foundations from some other Kanebo-owned brands/lines.

When I received the case, I thought that the colors of the jewel embellishments were not as vibrant as how they looked in magazines. But when I photographed it, I noticed that the colors did come alive on photographs. I guess this difference is by chance, not by design.

When light hits the case from certain angles, there is some soft blue iridescence, which is quite a nice design detail.

I do like makeup items with jewel details, and this case is a good addition to my stash of foundation cases!

SUQQU Fall 2010 Makeup 1(images/info from www.joseishi.net/voce)

It is not rare for Japanese beauty brands to go through a thorough overhaul every few years (either all in one season or in several seasons over a year or so). Last year, both RMK and Elégance revamped their makeup lines. (See the links for the relevant posts.) For fall 2010, SUQQU will renew its makeup and skincare lineups as well. All the items featured here are brand new items, not new shades/variations of existing items. They will be released in Japan on September 3rd, and I assume they will arrive in the UK soon after that.

The new items include:
