SUQQU will release Perfect Eye Makeup Kit tomorrow (June 4th) in London’s Selfridges. The limited-edition kit, retailing for £68, includes a green-toned Blend Eyeshadow EX-02, Mascara Volume Long N EX-01 Green, Eye Make Up Remover (50ml), Eye Cream (4g), Screw Brush, and an original bag. (The eye palette, mascara and screw brush are available only in this kit.)

RMK‘s makeup collection renewal items will also be available in Selfridges tomorrow. The Ingenious Power/Jelly Eyes retail for £16 and the Ingenious Powder/Jelly Cheeks retail for £19.50. I swatched a few colors and was quite pleased with the texture of the powder. I particularly liked SH-07 Shiny Purple, which has beautifully dimensional shimmer.

– I stopped by the Chanel counter in Harvey Nichols and one SA confirmed that the Chanel Studio (which used to carry items only available in Asia and North America) had left Harvey Nichols and would be moving to Selfridges. There was no sight of the Tokyo Happening collection in either counter. Instead, the London Madness collection is available.

Tokyo Happening collection is available now in Moscow (Russia) in Chanel Make-up studio in TSUM department store:) I bought Blue wish vernis and Libellule gloss last Friday. I couldn't dare to the shimmer – too much sparkles (IMHO)
Glosses and vernis are about transparent and the colour is not noticeable, just glitter is marked.

Hi Miss_waterlily,

That's certainly not bad news, as I shop in Selfridges a little bit more than in Harvey Nichols. I do hope that they will start carrying items exclusive to Asia and North America soon!

Thank you for your comment again! :)

Hi Tushkanmex,

Good to know that the Tokyo Happening collection is also available in Russia. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the items!

At the moment I don't really think I will get to see it in the UK, but I will definitely be on the lookout for it.

Thank you for posting your comment! :)
