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!

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:

Kanebo Lunasol will release its fall/winter 2010 base makeup collection in Japan on September 10th. The new items include:
– Water Cream Foundation N (SPF19, PA++, 6 shades)
– Tone-Up Makeup Base (SPF19, PA++)
– Skin Contrast Face Powder (2 shades)
It seems that Water Cream Foundation N will replace Water Cream Foundation and that Skin Contrast Face Powder will replace Micro Finish Powder N. I have been interested in trying Micro Finish Powder N (in 02 Natural Beige) for quite some time (since I wrote this post). I might have to get it soon before it is discontinued……
On the same day, Lunasol will also release new skincare products. They are:
– Fast Skin Adjuster (pre-toner)
– Moist Conditioner (toner)
– Balancing Milk OC/SO (moisturizing milk)
– Wrapping Skin Repair (moisturizing Cream)

The foundation cases are sold separately. (Both cases look quite pretty. I particularly like the one for the powder foundation.)

Even though, according to this image, the plum in 07 Plum Wine might be a little too dark for me, I am still quite interested in trying the palette.
