Launched in fall 2005, Maquillage has been Shiseido’s main base and point makeup line. For holiday 2014, the line will release Dramatic Rouge (10 shades, ¥3000) in Japan on November 21st. The new product, showcasing the line’s new look, will kickstart the line’s renewal.
The new style of packaging keeps black as a base color, and the glamorous gold cap of the lipstick makes a bold statement. On the whole, the case looks quite bling-y but I think it still looks stylish and classy. It also seems to have a vintage and artistic flair. I am liking this new look. (It certainly looks a lot more ornate than my Lasting Climax Rouge in RS310, whose packaging I still like very much.)

Shiseido has also outlined the upcoming releases from Maquillage for spring 2015:
– January 21st: cheek & face color and fragrance
– February 21st: foundation
– March 21st: additional shades of Dramatic Rouge
I am particularly looking forward to seeing how the new style of packaging is applied to compact cases.

How can I order for Maquillage Powder? How much? Do you ship in Manila, Philippines? If so, how long will it take? Thanks
