Back in May, I was a little surprised to see that Paul & Joe would be releasing ten Lipstick Cases CS for fall 2014. (I suppose they do go hand-in-hand with all the new lipsticks (thirteen regular ones and three limited editions).) It was also a surprise for me that five of them would feature prints from past years, which I didn’t think would happen, even though the brand occasionally used past prints for its GWP items.
I stopped by Harrods earlier this month to have a look and I purchased seven of them. I also went for Lipstick in 107 Rose Sorbet, which is a very pretty rose pink and one of the thirteen new regular shades, but let’s look at the new Lipstick Cases CS today.

On September 4th, Pola will launch Nocturnal, a new makeup sub-line under the existing Muselle makeup line. The collection is designed in collaboration with Japanese artist Kaori Miyayama. The products not only feature her illustrations but also embody the idea of “translucent dimension”, the essence of her artistic style.
I like the soft and elegant shades of Face Color (more images below). The three variations feature different illustrative designs, and there is something quite poetic about them.
Muselle Nocturnal’s debut collection, Sunset Colors, for fall 2014 includes:
