I was on Estée Lauder’s Japanese site earlier today and I came across some how-to videos. Two of them are with American model Hilary Rhoda, who has been one of the faces of Estée Lauder since 2007, and two of them are with Chinese model Liu Wen, Estée Lauder’s first Asian brand ambassador. (The Estée Lauder US and UK sites are not featuring the two videos with Liu Wen.)
One of the things in the videos that I find interesting is how the makeup artist rolls the powder brush across the face to apply loose powder. I usually use a powder puff to apply loose powder, but I might give this method a try.

This is the first Stash Focus article since the blog move, and today I am bringing you my thoughts on Kanebo Coffret D’Or‘s Beauty C Curve Eyes in 04 Peach Beige.
The Beauty C Curve Eyes series is part of Coffret D’Or’s late summer/ early fall 2010 makeup collection, which was released in Japan on June 16th. The series features five variations. With the absence of a purple palette among them, I decided to go for 04 Peach Beige.

In 2006, Kanebo launched the Impress range, and, a year later, the Impress IC sub-range was launched. According to Kanebo, Impress is marketed as a “high-price” range while Impress IC is what the brand calls a “volume-price” (mid-price) range.
On November 19, a new sub-range, Impress Granmula, will be introduced in Japan. Marketed as a “highest-price” range, the launch collection includes three items:
– Lotion (21,000 JPY, approx. 154 GBP, 239 USD)
– Emulsion (31,500 JPY, approx. 230 GBP, 359 USD)
– Cream (126,000 JPY, approx. 922 GBP, 1436 USD)
The Cream is certainly exceptionally pricey, but it still can’t stand comparison with Pola’s B.A The Cream Edo Kiriko, released as a limited edition last October.

Addiction will release its fall 2010 makeup collection in Japan on August 20th. The collection features:
– Eyeshadow (6 new shades)
– Lipstick (2 new shades)
– Lip Gloss (2 new shades)
– Blush (2 new shades)
The collection (at least the items above) reminds me of Three’s fall 2010 makeup collection and Sonia Rykiel’s fall 2010 makeup collection. Purple is still on-trend!

In 2008, SHISEIDO started implementing a 3-year plan to increase its global presence. (See my post in 2008 regarding this here.) A major part of the plan is to increase the brand’s retail points across the world. Since then, SHISEIDO has commenced business in the following countries:
March 2008: Romania, Bulgaria
May 2009: Egypt
August 2009: Laos, Morocco
December 2009: Azerbaijan
May 2010: Mongolia
From this month, SHISEIDO will launch retail points in three Balkan nations: Albania, Kosovo, and Macedonia. The brand will be the first Japanese cosmetics brand available in these three countries.
With these European launches, the brand will be available in 77 countries, including 44 European countries.
Updated on October 15th, 2010:
According to one of Shiseido’s latest press releases (via www.nikkei.com), the brand was available in Mongolia from September.
