Paul & Joe, Maquillage, Lunasol & Esprique Precious Holiday

Here's some info on upcoming holiday releases by some Japanese brands.

Paul & Joe will launch two Fragrance Kits on 7 November, a Green Floral (rose, cassis and lily of the valley) and Floriental (notes of jasmine, rose and lilac). Each Kit contains a Fragrance Body Cream 60ml, Fragrance Body Powder 25g and a Solid Fragrance 6g plus a mini pouch (20cm x 16cm). These will retail for 6825yen each. I hope these make it to Singapore as I'd definitely love to get both!



Maquillage's holiday collection which will be released on 21 November in Japan.

1. Jewelling Palettes: two palettes which include eyeshadows and face colors (4200yen)

2. Jewel Rich Gel: can be used as face color or body makeup (2100yen)

3. Dramatical Jewel Liner: in 2 shades (2625yen)

Lunasol will launch their annual holiday makeup coffret set on 15 November. The set will include the usual shimmery beige/brown/bronze eyeshadow quad and party clutch bag. This year's palette is reportedly from the Lighting For Eyes series, which is a boring choice for me. I'd much rather see a palette from Geminate Eyes or Sheer Contrast Eyes.

Esprique Precious will also release a makeup set (3675yen) on 16 November that includes Eye Color Selection palette with 3 shades, a black Pencil Eyeliner (half size), lipgloss (half size) and nail polish (half size), all in limited edition shades.
