Les Merveilleuses de Ladurée’s holiday 2015 Le Temps collection features makeup, skincare and bodycare items. The highlights for me are the two new variations of Mixed Face Color Rose Ladurée and the rose-gold case (Limited Edition Pot for Face Color Rose Ladurée).

.

At first, Chanel’s fall 2015 makeup collection didn’t excite me very much, but it kept growing on me. There is a quiet elegance about the rich and sumptuous autumnal hues. I particularly like Les 4 Ombres in 254 Tissé d’Automne (below), with olive green and warm brown.

Integrate’s fall 2015 makeup collection features the new Nudy Grade Eyes series. Based on some of the images I have seen online, it seems that the colors, the pigmentation levels and the finishes are all towards the natural side. I am currently interested in BR353.

.

I feel that some of Lunasol‘s recent seasonal makeup collections lack flair and imagination. Its fall 2015 Captivating Purification makeup collection has a chocolate theme, which we have seen for many times from other brands. However, Selection de Chocolat Eyes in EX01 Chocolat Noir, with its intensely dark shades, is not only the standout item in this collection but also one of the line’s more memorable eyeshadow palettes in the last few seasons.

Jill Stuart has always been known for its princessy look, and recently it has been bringing out products with particularly eye-catching packaging. Ribbon Couture Eyes and Everlasting Silk Powder Foundation Flawless Perfection have certainly caught my attention, and Forever Juicy Oil Rouge from the brand’s summer 2015 Juicy Lush makeup collection looks adorable as well.

Canmake launched Mat Fleur Cheeks in fall 2014 with three very pretty variations, and 04 Mat Romantic Mauve released in summer 2015 looks just as lovely. I am also tempted by the new Lip Tint Syrup.

Les Merveilleuses de Ladurée has a wide range of products and colors for the cheeks, and its summer 2015 Les Signes Astrologiques makeup collection features four new limited-edition variations of Mixed Pressed Cheek Color (which was first released in summer 2013.) My favorite among the four is 106, with an interesting mix of pink, peach, and green.

3rd: SUQQU

.

I am sure devoted fans of SUQQU have noticed that the brand’s makeup range has been changing over the last couple of years. The colors and tones are more varied as there are more non-neutral eyeshadow shades and more vibrant lip colors. The brand’s spring 2015 makeup collection is fresh and colorful. The three new variations of Blend Color Eyeshadow combine soft spring-like hues with neutral shades, which have always been the brand’s speciality. However, I am more drawn to the blushers and lipsticks in the collection. I picked up Balancing Cheeks N in 04 Mizuhanamoya and Creamy Glow Lipstick Moist in EX-16 Momobara and I will be reviewing them later. (Update: read the two reviews here and here.)

.

It is usually the eyeshadow palettes that are the stars of Lunasol‘s seasonal makeup collections, but, in the line’s spring 2015 Elegant Purification makeup collection, the new Stain Color Lips lipsticks are claiming the spotlight. The seven shades feature what the line describes as a “soft matte” finish. The cooler shades (02 Pure Pink, 03 Energy Pink and 04 Fresh Pink) are particularly appealing to me.

Since Shiseido revamped Benefique Theoty in spring 2013, the line has been gradually adding new items to its lineup each season. Its spring 2015 makeup collection features five shades of Lip Gloss (Smile Aura). The packaging is feminine and romantic as usual.
