Since Sofina Raycious was discontinued, I have not been adding many foundation cases to my collection. But when I saw this case on-line, I thought I might decide to have it at some point.
Kanebo Coffret D’Or‘s spring/summer 2010 base makeup collection doesn’t feature a new powder foundation, but it does include this powder foundation case, which can house powder foundations from Coffret D’Or (Lasting Power Pact UV and Silky Fit Pact as well as previous versions such as Beauty Lasting Pact UV and Beauty Essence Pact). It can also house some of the powder foundations from some other Kanebo-owned brands/lines.
When I received the case, I thought that the colors of the jewel embellishments were not as vibrant as how they looked in magazines. But when I photographed it, I noticed that the colors did come alive on photographs. I guess this difference is by chance, not by design.
When light hits the case from certain angles, there is some soft blue iridescence, which is quite a nice design detail.
I do like makeup items with jewel details, and this case is a good addition to my stash of foundation cases!

I’d be nice to see it open ^ ^
Hi Tam,
I didn’t take photos of the interior of the case because there are no design details. The interior is plain white (with no blue iridescence). The foundation refill slot is on the left and the sponge is stored on the right. (The case comes with a sponge.)
Thank you for stopping by again! :)
that’s oh so very pretty! I really like it and haven’t seen anyone with one like it

Hi Vonnie,

Thank you for your comment again! :)
I’ve been eyeing this case in 2009, before it came out. Unfortunately, it doesn’t fit my Clinique foundation cake. Congratulations on the coffret case, it’s absolutely gorgeous!

Hi, really really love this case so much. And I really wanted to have one. But i don’t know where i can find it. Can you help me. thanks a lot.:)
Hi Yets,
I am not entirely sure, but I don’t think this case is sold at Kanebo’s retail points anymore. You may be able to spot it at eBay. Meanwhile, have a look at my FAQ page for information on checking item availability with ichibankao.com.
