Visee Spring '09

I picked up a copy of the winter'09 edition of Kose Precious Beauty magazine today and found pics of the upcoming Visee Spring '09 collection inside.



The star product of the collection is the new Blackish Forming Palette (1680yen) series. The 5 palettes each contain a dramatic black liner shade that has been formulated with three types of black pigment to produce a true black shade. The emphasis is on creating a glam smokey look, quite unusual for a spring collection but certainly a welcome departure from the pastel gradations typical of other Japanese brands.



The look on the left is created by applying all the shades in the palette intensely while the look on the right is created by applying only the black liner shade intensely and the other three shades more sheerly.


Tutorail on how to apply the eyeshadows in the palette. The highlight shade is first applied all over the lid, followed by the upper right grey shade from the upper lashline to the crease, and then the lower right grey shade along the outer half of the lower lashline, then finishoff with the black liner shade along the upper lashline and the outer half of the lower lashline.
