Red-toned shades are among the eyeshadow shades I have been experimenting with lately. (Red-toned eyeshadows have obviously been popular for some time, but I have only been interested in them since earlier this year.) SUQQU‘s Designing Color Eyes in 128 Hiakari in the brand’s 2019 Holiday Makeup Kit A caught my attention as soon as I saw images of it on-line. I decided to go for the set to try it.

Chanel Rouge Coco Gloss 792 Aphrodite Spring 2018 Makeup 1

.

It is interesting to see that sheer blue-tinted lip glosses have been far more popular in the last couple of years than they were in 2007 (when I wrote about them for the first time). (See another post from 2011. Again, they were not as popular then.) It seems that RMK’s Lip Jelly Gloss in 03 Baby Blue from holiday 2015 was at least partially responsible for starting a trend in East Asia, and quite a few beauty brands followed it. (See my makeup trend report from fall 2017.)

In 2011, I wrote about Chanel‘s Lèvres Scintillantes in 387 Wish (a blue-tinted lip gloss from the beautiful Tokyo Happening makeup collection in 2009) in the From My Treasure Chest series, and today I will be focusing on Rouge Coco Gloss in 792 Aphrodite from the brand’s spring 2018 Neapolis: New City makeup collection.
