10th: Lavshuca

Lavshuca’s fall 2013 makeup collection features red cases for the products. This is a new look for the line, but I still prefer the original (pre-fall-2012) packaging. I like some of the variations of Melty Heart Eyes and the gradational look of Melty Trick Cheeks in this collection.

SUQQU continues its 10th anniversary celebration with a limited-edition makeup collection for fall 2013. This collection is noticeably more colorful than most of the brand’s previous seasonal collections, and today I am reviewing Blend Color Eyeshadow in EX-17 Hatsushimo and Face Color Palette in EX-03.

A Touch of Blusher is seven years old today!
My other half bought a star cake to celebrate the occasion, and I would like to dedicate it to all my readers. You are all my stars!
My life has been quite hectic in the last 12 months, and I have not been able to blog as much as I would like to. However, I am determined to carry on blogging to share the latest news in beauty and my thoughts on beauty items with all of you.
I would like to thank all of you for reading my blog and for commenting on my posts. It is your support that keeps me going!
Once again, let’s take a look back at the last 12 months of A Touch of Blusher:
November 2012: Another blue-tinted lip gloss from my collection.
December: My first item from Kate.
January 2013: SUQQU celebrates its 10th anniversary.
February: One of my latest purchases from Dior.
March: A blog post on food.
April: Maquillage was one of the first lines to reveal the holiday 2013 collection.
May: I finally got to try Lunasol’s iconic Beige Beige.
June: I rediscovered Kesalan Patharan.
July: Visée presented a brand new look.
August: Lavshuca’s Lav Hearty Eyes in PK-1 features cute packaging as well as my favorite color combination, pink and purple.
September: Stash Debut became a regular feature.
October: Another very eye-catching holiday makeup collection from Jill Stuart.
Thank you all very much once again, and do come back again soon!

It has been a few months since I purchased these items from Paul & Joe during the summer sale earlier this year, but I thought I would still share images of them with you all.

If you live in London or happen to be in London this week and if you are a fan of Japanese cosmetics and the culture of beauty and personal grooming in Japan, you might be interested in the two events taking place at The Japan Foundation in London this week.
On the 7th and the 8th of November, Noriyo Tsuda, Chief Curator of POLA Research Institute of Beauty and Culture, will give two talks that explore the history and development of cosmetics in Japan. The events are free to attend but booking is essential. Please see the event information below for details.
