Natural cosmetics inspired by skincare are gentle on the skin, but lack expressiveness...or so you might think. In fact, they're also great at creating trendy makeup! To help you enjoy natural cosmetics even more, we're introducing their appeal in three parts. The second installment features RMS Beauty, proposing summer makeup that makes the most of radiance, shining under the summer sun. The exquisite natural look and sophisticated sheer glow will bring out your positive expression.

The Sophisticated Artist Brand "RMS Beauty"

This brand was created by Rose Marie Swift, a makeup artist active in fashion magazines and other media. Based on the theme of "Less is more," it offers stylish and free-spirited color items made with natural ingredients.






【EYE】
Add a dewy glow. A rough yet sophisticated look for your eyes
The luminizer, which subtly radiates a natural yet modern look, is the brand's signature item. Palette A brings together four types of luminizers with different expressions. Combine it with eyeshadow to create eyes with depth.



A. Luminizer Quad 6,696 yen (tax included)
B. Swift Shadow SB-48 3,024 yen (tax included)
C. Swift Shadow TT-76 3,024 yen (tax included)


EASY STEPS



1. Apply the bottom left color (Champagne Fizz) of the Luminizer Quad (A) to the inner corner of your eye. Apply it over your brows to create a dewy glow.
2. Lightly apply gold eyeshadow (B) as if drawing an eyeliner, and also under your eyes.
3. Add an accent by applying bronze taupe eyeshadow (C) to the edge of your eyes.
4. Blend the top right and bottom right colors (Luminizer Nude and Champagne Rose) of the Luminizer Quad (A) and apply them to the high points of your cheeks to add a rosy glow.






【LIP】
Powder, cream, balm. Healthy lip products with three textures to play with
A powder shadow with a moist texture that blends easily on the lips, a creamy lipstick with a satin matte finish, and a balm-like lip product with a melting shine. All contain plant oils, which are gentle on the skin and also moisturizing.


A. Swift Shadow SB-48 ¥3,024 (tax included)
B. Lipstick #Rapture ¥4,104 (tax included)
C. Lip Shine #Sacred ¥3,672 (tax included)


EASY STEPS



1. Use a brush to lightly blend the gold shadow (A) all over your lips.
2. 2. Blend brick red lipstick (B) into the centre of your lips, creating a gradation up, down, left and right.
3. Finally, apply juicy red lipstick (C) only to the centre of your lower lip.
