Cosmetics brand Les Merveilleuses LADUREE will release a limited-edition Christmas and Holiday collection nationwide. The theme is "Ball at the Opera." The first collection will be released on November 1st.

"Mixed Face Color Rose Ladurée" (2 types, 10,500 yen) is a cheek and face color shaped like the brand's signature rose petals, each a limited-edition color mixed with three shades. Each petal is handcrafted using a material developed to more closely resemble a real rose. It comes with a rose-scented, vivid pink drawstring bag reminiscent of a ball gown.

"Pearl Body Serum" (2 types, 5,250 yen) is a body serum inspired by pearls, said to have been essential for painting portraits of aristocrats. It contains highly moisturizing pearl powder.

The brand's first skincare item, "Treatment Oil" (8,400 yen), will also be released. It contains 10 types of plant oils and can be used as a finishing touch to skincare or for massage. The bottle design resembles a red jewel.

The limited edition "Holiday Card 2013" (525 yen) message card is inspired by the "Camet de Bal" (ball notebook), which was an essential item for balls, and comes as a set of three small message cards with designs of a mask, coupe glass, and pocket watch.
