Kanebo Lunasol 15th anniversary celebration : Revealing Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette and Kanebo Lunasol Modeling Beige Skin

This year marks Kanebo Lunasol 15th anniversary and in Malaysia we have a celebration in  Kampachi a Japanese restaurant. I love how the dancer moves gracefully as she paints the backdrop.

We are entertained by Japanese Koto Music Performance

Beautiful Nadia Heng as the emcee

Do you know the meaning of LUNASOL?

Lunasol – which means Moon (Luna) and Sun (Sol) in Latin– plays on the concept of light and shadow, response and motion. It expresses the many faces and inner mysteries a woman possesses. Applying makeup is a ritual that lets a woman awaken her beauty within. With innovative formulas, Lunasol breathes life into skin as the makeup melts to accentuate a flawless complexion, draping your face in light and shadow for a brilliant radiance and perfect dimension.

CEO of Kanebo Cosmetics Malaysia Mr. Masahiro Yamasaki said that “Fifteen years is truly a landmark for a brand. We are delighted to celebrate this, but also to celebrate the many years we’ve worked closely with all our friends today in bringing the brand to where it is now.”

Highlight of the event was The Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette was officially launched.

Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette consists of a special eye shadow set commemorating Kanebo Lunasol's 15th anniversary, in which six beige colours have been collected, including reproduced colours and existing popular colours.

This Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette consists :- 

- 6 Full size beige colour eyeshadows

- 1 Full size duo 15th Anniversary Cheeks in Pink Beige

- 1 Full size Micro Finish Pressed Powder N in Sheer Beige SPF15-PA+ (Includes a puff )

A close up picture of Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette

The first sight, I spotted the famous Lunasol Eye Shadow Skin Modeling Eyes 01 Beige Beige eyeshadow colour similarity in the makeup palette. Upon asking, it's true that Beige Beige has been incorporated into the eyes makeup collection. 

Note : The pic does not justify the product as the sunlight when I was taking pic.

Personally I have tried to swatch the eyeshadow and the texture is amazing. Very fine, smooth and pigmented . And this actually reminds me why I do like Lunasol eyeshadow very much.

Tutorial on how to use Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette

I was told that the palette could be deported and  the golden pouch can be reused.

Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette is priced at RM 368. Although this does not come cheap but considering that there are 6 full size eyeshadow colour, 1 full size blusher and 1 full size press powder make up for the price. The pouch and travel size mascara & lipgloss are add on value. Besides this a limited edition palette and honestly it would be a good makeup palette to own because all the colours in the palette is suitable for daily use and the quality of the eyeshadow is great. Their blusher itself also is really pretty too. And if this is the first time coming across Lunasol, well this Kanebo Lunasol 15th Anniversary Makeup Palette is definitely a good one to own as their Beige Beige eyeshadow colours definitely would not disappoint you. 

I was thinking to get this... so last weekends when I was at the mall and went to check for this. I was told it was out of stock the moment it arrived the counter as it was reserved by many regular customers, it gave me no suprise as this is a limited edition and definitely a good one to own. However I was told there are still a few scattering around. So you might want to check Kanebo Malaysia facebook to see where they are.

Besides the makeup palette, at the event Kanebo Lunasol Modeling Beige Skin SPF 30 PA++  was also launched. This is the first Lunasol base makeup product which is inspired by Beige Beige from Skin Modelling Eyes which was released in 2007. The product is thoroughly infused with the e effects of Beige Beige that naturally conditions the skin tone and texture while bringing out three-dimensionality.

The succulent light texture made from water and oil in a one-to-one ratio creates an ultra-thin film that becomes integrated with the skin, as if wearing a fine, translucent veil. This is a whole new multi-tasking base makeup that can be used alone or also be used together with your own foundation or makeup base. I have not tried the product yet because it is not yet available in store.

Kanebo Lunasol Modeling Beige Skin SPF 30 PA++  would be available in Malaysia at RM148 in all Kanebo counters (such as in Isetan, Gardens and Parkson)

FOTD : My favourite green eyeshadow from Lunasol Aurorize Eyes #03 Gentle Variation

 

There are some days where I want to wear full makeup & play with colours. Green eyeshadow is my  favourite look and of all green eye colour palettes I owned, there is one that I always love to use... because it never fails me!

Kanebo Lunasol Aurorize Eyes #03 Gentle Variation is one of my favourite eye palettes in my stash. I got this 2 years back where I got it for my birthday & I'm loving it every single day. More info of the collection here . 

Unlike certain eye palette where I will only 1 or 2 colours because the other colours are not so nice, this is the only few palette that I have where I actually use all the colours. Looked how much still left in my palette despite owning and using it for 2 years already, because this is so pigmented and I only need to use very little! And the texture is pretty smooth to use too! 

The colours looked really pigmented even though I was using very little to blend!

This is one palette that I would definitely bring for my holiday because lots of looks can be created and it is so simple to use! 

p/s: Ops, actually I have to confess that I can't live without green eyeshadow :D 

Do you like my eye makeup and what is your favourite eye shadow colour?

EOTD : Rainbow Eyes Makeup with Make Up For Ever

Yesterday I got some time to kill while waiting for an event to start, so Sephora KLCC was the perfect place to loiter and to check out some stuffs. While doing my beauty rounds, I looked at the mirror & thought that my makeup looked so plain. Then I remembered that morning I was in the rush to go out and just simply did natural brown makeup.

This is my "rainbow eyes" after playing with the colours !

And I am feeling so good because been some time I have not really play with colours because I always have to do quick makeup before I got to out out in the morning :)  

I always wanted to try Make Up For Ever Aqua cream and since all SAs were so busy serving customers, I went on try out Aqua Cream colours to "brighten up" my look. Those marked in stars is the colours that I picked up; i.e Pink Beige, Warm Beige and Intense Blue for their existing collection! 

I also picked up some of the colours from their latest Aqua Summer Collection ; i.e Delicate Pastel Green & Deep Iridescent Mauve! The green is so pretty...!!!! 

The Aqua Cream is an ultra-pigmented, long-lasting waterproof cream. Highly concentrated in mother-of-pearl pigments, it provides an immediate color intensity with a luminous finish. Its long-lasting formula will not crease or smudge under the most extreme conditions.

Oh  I love love love these Aqua cream, so easy to use...and seriously wanted to buy all those colours that I used! There is no real technique and I just use my finger to it glide it through.... so easy because the texture is so smooth...even I was applying on top on my existing eye colour. The Aqua cream colour is vibrant and really long lasting! Each Makeup Forever Aqua cream selling at RM 95 

Aqua Eyes is a waterproof liner pencil. Highly pigmented, its unique formula adheres to the eyelids and doesn't run or fade even under the most extreme conditions. Its fluid, creamy texture glides onto the skin and doesn't irritate the eye contour.

I also used Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes too! Picked up Gold, Majorelle Blue and Turquoise! This eyeliner is creamy, glides on smoothly and the colours are so pigmented! It stay on the whole night without smudging or anything....and this is really making me falling in love with colour eyeliner! Each Makeup For Ever Aqua Eyes is selling at RM 64 (if not mistaken). 

I applied Warm Beige Aqua cream all over my eyelid and from inner of my eyes applied pink beige.then applied a little bit of Delicate Pastel Green & Deep Iridescent Mauve as I applied outward. At the corner of the eyes I applied Intense blue Aqua cream.

At the first half of my upper lid on the lash line, I used Turquoise Eyes pencil eyeliner and finish it off with Majorelle Blue. To enhance the look I used Aqua Liner in Gold on my waterline. 

Note: In the morning, I am using Lunasol Skin Modeling Water Liquid Foundation OC 03, Jane Iredale Pressed Mineral Powder in Warm Sienna, Lavshuca Melting Eyes OR-1 palette, K-Palette Zero Kuma Concealer 01, Nars Orgasm Blusher and Maybelline Cat Eyes Colossal Mascara.

To finish off the look, I simply picked up a nude pinkish lipstick from Laura Mercier & applied Benefit Sugarbomb Blusher :)

Do you like my rainbow eyes makeup ? 

Should I do this more often?

p/s: Maybe I should dig out those pigment and colourful eyeshadow to play with...one of these day!
