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:

As Stella McCartney’s Stella is one of my favorite fragrances, I always look forward to the annual release of Sheer Stella. This year, the summer edition is another welcome addition to the Stella family. The only main difference is that this year’s edition is called Stella Summer Rose.

3rd: Aube Couture
(Designing Impression Eyes in 555)

Like Elsia’s spring 2012 makeup collection (featured in Part 2), Aube Couture’s spring 2012 makeup collection impressed me when I saw it in person. The new Designing Impression Eyes series was launched in fall 2011, and there are three new variations for spring 2012. What I like about these three new palettes (and many of the fall 2011 ones) is that they combine low-key colors with high-toned shimmery finishes. This combination creates understated glamour, and these three palettes are still very wearable for daytime. (See the two limited-edition variations for summer 2012.)
The twelve shades of the new Excellent Stay Rouge feature some elegant low-key cool-toned shades, which appeal to me a lot.

For summer 2012, SUQQU will release Blend Color Eyeshadow in 12 Konruri in Japan on May 18th. Those of you who are SUQQU fans will probably instantly see its resemblance to Blend Color Eyeshadow in 01 Kakitsubata, which was released in Japan in fall 2010. According to SUQQU.com, 01 Kakitsubata will be available in Japan until May 17th. 12 Konruri is presumably the replacement.

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.
