Paul & Joe Wild Flowers

Biteki.com has also reported on the Paul & Joe "Wild Flowers" collection to be released in Japan on 8 January which include three Gloss Lacquers CS (3465yen) and three Face & Eye Colors CS (2730yen).

The new line of Select Eye Color (25 shades, 1890yen each with the 3-pan case at 1260yen) are available in three finishes: Pearly, Shiny and Matte. These will be released on 5 February together with a new Creamy Cheek Powder (5 shades, 2940yen) and 5 new shades of Nail Enamel (1680yen). The Creamy Cheek Powder are made in the same method as the Creamy Powder Compact Foundation: the cream base is first cooled to a solid and then pressed so that the blush has a light, non-greasy texture and is more moisturising than a normal powder blush. These are meant to be applied before foundation for that glow-from-within effect.

For those who are unfamiliar with the brand, CS stands for Collection Sparkles, the term for the limited edition face and lip colors that come in packaging featuring limited edition prints from Paul & Joe's clothing line. These are usually released twice a year. Back in March 2003, Paul & Joe Japan re-released these two sets of the very first 20 Collection Sparkles introduced since the makeup line's inception in 2002. You can view the whole Collection Sparkles archive on the official Paul & Joe website.
