2017 Spring New Products

From 2 of my favourite Japanese drugstore brands.

Happy 2017 everyone! Hope you all had a good start to the year?

I gave myself a little break from blogging :D Felt like it was necessary because ideas need space and new inspiration to grow, and the best way to do that is to break away from the usual routine and expose myself to something new or different.

Anyway, here are new products from Canmake and Visee that will be released in the upcoming months. Nothing new under the sun really, but as always, it's nice to see something different, yea?

It looks like my favourite brand Kate has nothing new up their sleeves this spring. In fact, there isn't too much new stuff among drugstore brands. Which is why this entry only contains stuff from Canmake and Visee.

CANMAKE | GLOW FLEUR CHEEK (08) | 800 YEN

This limited edition bluish pink/fushia shade sits close to your skin like a cream blush, while the glow powder on the upper left imparts a sheer and glossy finish to places you'd like to high light.

CANMAKE | GEL LINE ARTIST (B02) | 550 YEN

With its silky smooth texture, it glides over your skin easily. Formulated to be waterproof, this eyeliner is budge proof and long wearing!

B02 is a gentle brown.

CANMAKE | CREAM CHEEK (15) | 580 YEN

A cream blush that changes texture according to the type of foundation/base product used. If a dewy foundation is used, the blush will take on a glowy finish. If a matte foundation is used, the blush will take on a powdery soft finish.
