Shiseido continues the gradual packaging revamp of Maquillage with the launch of Cheek Color (Clear) and the relaunch of Cheek Color for the line’s spring 2017 makeup collection.

Paul & Joe‘s Pearl Foundation Primer in 001 Bonbon was first released in spring/summer 2012 and re-released in holiday 2012 (the year when the brand celebrated its beauty line’s 10th anniversary).

From the collection, I went for the beautiful Compacts and Lipstick Cases CS, which I wrote about earlier, and I also decided to add the primer to my collection.

Sweets Sweets’ holiday 2016 makeup collection features the new Fruit Tint Balm. 02 Clear Blue actually turns into a light pink when it is applied on the lips (it is not really a blue-tinted lip gloss), but I love the bright warm blue in the tube.

Lancôme collaborated with Sonia Rykiel for its fall 2016 makeup collection. The Sonia Rykiel Draws Paris for Lancôme collection features the designer’s iconic multi-colored stripes, which can be seen on the packaging of La Palette Saint Germain, Cushion Blush Subtil and Parisian Lip Le Crayon.
