Looking forward to Spring, dressing up for picnics in the park and tea parties with your best pals? This season, Watsons brings forth sunshine with its Spring Colour Report 2013, a beauty event that translates colours and trends off the runway into wearable, chic looks to match your favourite sundresses! Be it cosmetics, hair, skincare or inner beauty oral supplements, Watsons presents the latest brands and products to doll you up in light pastels (with a pop of colour!), style those long tresses, while helping you attain a radiant and healthy glow.

This Spring, there are so many new products that Watson is going to bring in.  I am going to focus on the cosmetic brands that’s exclusive to Watson.

CandyDoll, Eyemazing and Jewelove

Fronted by popular model and Japanese teen idol Tsubasa Masuwaka, CandyDoll is a range of cosmetic products to help one achieve the Gyaru, or cute and doll-like look.

The wide range of CandyDoll cosmetics include:

• Mineral Powders – Face Powder ($33.90, 10g) and Crystal Face Powder ($33.90, 10g): both have fine textures that glide smoothly onto the skin for even coverage

• Lipsticks – Ramune Pink and Apricot Beige lipsticks ($25.90, 3.5g) Highly pigmented and moisturizing, the lipsticks glides on smoothly, creating a natural nude look like Japanese girls

• Shading Powder ($29.90, 10g) – A soft matte, silky smooth bronzer that gives skin a flawless natural tan coverage effect. It is made from mineral powder and created a shade darker than foundation to contour the face and create a slimmer face shape

• Makeup Base series – Makeup Base with SPF 30 ($37.90 30g) that helps keep makeup on, but also protects skin from harmful UV rays while brightening up skin tone

Other CandyDoll makeup products also include blushers, highlights, concealers, as well as lipsticks and lip glosses.  Made in Japan

One of the most popular eyelashes brand in Japan, Jewelove (known as Jewerich in Japan) is a range of eyelashes launched in 2010 to help girls achieve bigger, more attractive eyes for the perfect Kawaii look.

Elite

The star product of the Elite models makeup range is its Fantastic Primer ($24.90, 15ml), a translucent gel makeup base that is suitable for all skin types.

The essential stage for perfect, even and long-lasting makeup, this water-based gel moisturizes skin whilst its non-greasy finish keeps skin matt and helps the foundation to stay on. Its energizing formula is also complemented with a pleasant cucumber fragrance to keep you feeling fresh and clean, even in hot and humid climates. Formulated with anti-ageing and anti-pollutant agents, as well as extracts of Plankton to fight skin oxidation, this primer helps you to achieve a radiant, healthy and beautiful complexion.
