Anna Sui 2010 Spring Collection: Lip Rouge G & Eye Color Accent F


1月7日、アナスイ コスメティックス2010年のスプリング ポイントメイク コレクションを発売しました。コレクションには新しいリップカラー、ネイルポリッシュ、そして限定のアイシャドウパレットがあります。私は新しいリップルージュ G(グロッシー)の200と、アイカラー アクセント Fの01を購入しました。リップルージュ Gはグロスの滑らかな質感と輝きを真似たリップスティックです。とても瑞々しいので、乾いた唇の上に先にリップジェリーやクリームを塗って柔らかくする必要なく使うことが出来ます。200はパープル色ですがリップルージュは非常にシアーで微かなパープル色味を与えるだけなので、ちょっと残念なリップカラーです。リップルージュ Gはリップスティックというより、むしろLipstick Queenのメディーバルのような、グロッシーなリップトリートメントと言ったほうが合っているかもしれません。実際、メディーバルに似ていますが、リップルージュ Gの方がよりクリーミーでシャイニー、そして香りが強いです。2,940円(税込み)です。

On the 7th of January, Anna Sui Cosmetics released their 2010 Spring Point Makeup Collection. The collection included new lip colors, nail polishes and limited edition eyeshadow palettes. I purchased the new Lip Rouge G (Glossy) in 200 and the Eye Color Accent F in 01. Lip Rouge G is a lipstick that emulates the smooth texture and shine of a gloss. It is so moisturizing that you could wear it over dry lips without applying a lip jelly or cream to soften your lips first. Though 200 is a purple shade, Lip Rouge is extremely sheer and only gives the slightest purple tint to the lips, which makes it a rather disappointing lip color. I think it would be more appropriate to describe Lip Rouge G as a glossy lip treatment like Lipstick Queen's Medieval than an actual lipstick. In fact, it is quite similar to Medieval except that Lip Rouge G is creamier, shinier and heavily scented. 2,940 yen (including tax).


一方、限定のアイカラー アクセント Fの01は、それほど残念な物ではなかったです。全てのシャドウはとても柔らかく、肌に馴染みやすいです。ラベンダーホワイトとピンクのハイライト用シャドウは両方ともパールのような輝きで、ブラックシャドウはマット、グリーンは白いラメが入ってキラキラしています。アイシャドウは程々に発色が良く、様々なカラフルなルックを作ることが出来ます。今のところ、私はシャドウをザ・ボディショップのメタリック アイディファイナーの11と合わせて、鮮やかなグリーンルックに使っています。このシャドウがもっと大きく、香りが付いていなければいいなと思いますが、この買い物には結構満足しています。アイカラー アクセント Fは2,625円(税込み)です。

The limited edition Eye Color Accent F in 01 is less disappointing. All of the shades are quite soft and blend well into the skin. Both the lavender-white and pink highlighting shadows have a pearly shine while the black shadow is matte and the green sparkles with white shimmer. The eye shadows are fairly pigmented and can be used to produce some colorful looks. So far, I have used the shadows with The Body Shop's Metallic Eye Definer in 11 for a brilliant green look. I do wish that quad was larger and not scented but I am otherwise fairly satisfied with my purchase. One Eye Color Accent F costs 2,625 yen (including tax).


今月末まで、対象店舗となっているアナスイのブティックでコスメを5,250円以上購入すると、アナスイのオリジナル クリアポーチを貰えます。ポーチの質はファッションやビューティー雑誌の付録とほとんど変わりません。

Till the end of the month, cosmetic purchases at a limited number of Anna Sui boutiques totaling over 5,250 yen come with an original Anna Sui clear purple pouch. The quality of the pouch is quite similar to that of a promotional item (furoku) in a fashion or beauty magazine.

Old Cow & Lorelle,

Thank you for commenting. I will try to do a swatch this weekend. Lip Rouge G is very sheer so I'm not sure how well (or if) it will photograph.

Melissa,
Yes, Anna Sui puts a lot of effort into the design of their products which is probably why they have such a great following. Their choice of colors are also why they are so popular, I think. Thank you for dropping by.

Hyuna,
Thank you for commenting. I think the lipstick looks better in the bottle than on the lips but it is a pretty shade.

Xyrine,
Yes, Anna Sui does a great job of combining cute and dark Victorian. Thank you for commenting.

coffretgorge,
Thank you. They're a little more pearly in person with the exception of the black shade but I think the camera captured them pretty well. Sometimes pearly or sparkly finishes don't photograph well.

Utoshi,
That's a promise! Thank you for dropping by.
