(image/info from www.nikkei.co.jp)– On October 3rd, Japanese beauty brand Pola will be releasing a limited-edition item, B.A The Cream Edo Kiriko, to commemorate the brand’s 80th anniversary. (Edo Kiriko is a form of traditional Japanese glass craft.) The 30ml cream will retail for 207,900 JPY (about 2,196 USD). (B.A is Pola’s most top-end line, with a face wash (Wash B.A Extra) retailing for 12,600 JPY (about 133 USD).)

The new items include:
– Dior Jazzclub (2 variations)
– 5-Colour Eyeshadow (1 new variation)
– 2-Color Eyeshadow (1 new variation)
– Diorliner (1 new shade)
– Diorshow Brow Styler (1 new shade)
– Diorblush (1 new variation)
– Dior Addict High Color (4 new shades)
– Rouge Dior Crème de Gloss (2 new shades)
– Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect (2 new shades)
– Contour Lip Liner (1 new shade)
– Dior Vernis (2 new shades)
– Diorskin Poudre Libre (1 new shade)
The star item, Dior Jazzclub, looks quite chic and there are some nice colors in both palettes. But I don’t think I will be picking up either of the variations since I personally think the designs of Dior Diorissime and Dior Detective Chic palettes (from fall 2007 and fall 2006, respectively) appeals to me more and the colors suit me better. (Dior Detective Chic is a multi-toned face powder.)

Overall this is a very sophisticated neutral-toned collection with a lot of wearable items. I personally like the fact that many of the neutral shades are softly warm neutrals which would suit my complexion a little more. (Cool neutrals can look a little ashy and greyish on me.)
Among the three new Blend Eyeshadow palettes, I like the look of EX-03 and EX-05. (EX-04 might be very slightly too cool-toned for me.) Both seem to have a couple of shades with a subtle gold undertone. I am also interested in the Polish Face Color (top left in the second photo). I am looking forward to seeing these three items in person.
(A reminder: SUQQU’s fall 2009 collection will be launched in Japan on August 7th and all the items in the collection are limited editions.)
Many thanks to Betsy at Autumn Masquerade for telling me about SUQQU’s website update. You can read about her thoughts on the collection here.
