【Eyes】





A. Laura Mercier "Flawless Fusion Ultra Longwear Concealer" #2C 3,780 yen (tax included)
This concealer utilizes the brand's unique technology to achieve both comfortable application and strong coverage. Its water-resistant formula protects against sweat, sebum, and humidity, perfect for the coming season. Its base is made with beauty ingredients, so it won't feel thick even when layered, and it provides natural, bare-skinned coverage.
NARS "Hardwired Eyeshadow" #5346, #5334, #5339 2,700 yen each (tax included)
B, #5346: A lavender smoke with purple and pink and gold polarized glitter.
C, #5334: A skin-friendly pink with plenty of fine gold glitter.
D, #5339: A trendy, warm brick color with pink and red glitter that shines like a soft bronze on the skin.

This eyeshadow enhances the radiance of your eyes with four types of precious metal sparkle: high-pigment and high-shine shimmer, glitter, and pearl. Its smudge-resistant formula ensures long-lasting color and texture, just as you applied it!



EASY STEPS



1. Apply a thin layer of concealer (A) to the under-eye area where you are concerned about dark circles or dullness to enhance the clarity of your eyes (blend it in with a brush for a more natural finish!).
2. Apply (B) to a water-soaked brush and apply the shadow eyeshadow to a smooth line. (The density of the glitter is dense and it sparkles)
3. Use your finger to apply the pink color (C) to the center of your eyelid to emphasize the three-dimensional effect.
4. Finally, use a thin applicator tip to apply the brick color (D) in a thin line along the edge of your lower eyelid, and finish by applying a moist glitter shadow to your under-eye bags.

【Highlighter & Cheek】
E, NARS "Blush" #4034 ¥3,996 (tax included)
The silky, fine powder creates a matte, shimmering texture. A quick application creates a natural, rosy glow for a vibrant look. #4043, a matte vivid pink, has a bluish undertone that blends well with the skin and enhances its translucency.


F. Laura Mercier "Face Illuminator" #04 (Devotion) ¥5,616 (tax included)
A fine powder that can be used as a face powder, highlighter, and blush. The brand's unique pigment enhances color and reflects light in multiple directions, making skin look brighter! Formulated with glycerin, it also has the effect of moisturizing skin.



EASY STEPS



1. Apply (E) to a cheek brush and apply from the high points of your cheekbones toward the tip of your nose to add a pink nuance to the center of your face for a bright, vibrant look.
2. On top of that, apply (F) on top of the high points of your cheekbones. The delicate light accentuates your bone structure and creates a three-dimensional effect. Also, by tapping it with your fingers on the "M" part of your lips and on your chin, you can create a natural look of volume.

[Lips]


Laura Mercier "Lip Glacé" #07 ¥2,808 (tax included)
This lip gloss, formulated with shea butter, evening primrose oil, grapeseed oil, and aloe extract, smooths and conditions lips for a natural glow. #07 is a healthy coral shade that creates a juicy impression.


For a summer night out, rather than heavily smearing lips with lipstick, choose a gloss that creates a relaxed and moisturized look for a modern, sophisticated impression. A gloss with high moisturizing properties will also help to moisturize your lips.
