When i first saw this brand 2 years ago in a small shop in Shanghai, i was sooo in love with it! I particularly like the compact powder packaging. But i was so disappointed when i realized i "should not" buy it coz what's the use of the lovely box when the powder is finished (and cannot buy the refill). The owner of the shop could not promise that she'll be able to get a continuous supply. So it was a lust at that time.
Last year, i chanced upon a bulk purchase and i ordered a Majolica Majorca blusher (which till date, i still have not used coz i'm not done with my Guerlain). The blusher packaging is much simpler - not elaborate and "fantasy". Haha! Yes, their image is somewhat like "fantasy". You can tell from their website here - very slow but enchanting! (I dont have the patience to wait for the stories to unfold) Do check out their mascara packaging too! Some examples below. So pretty! ;)
Note: Both websites are different.

Yes, products is in spore watson since last oct '08. The white-base & black mascara are very popular since its launches in japan. i heard it was all sold-out within 3 days of launch in japan. Now the black mascara is their 3rd generation liao;). Try out their white-base, its really lengthen yr eye-lashes. Japan is ALOT cheaper follow by Taiwan.
Cool! But if it's selling in Watsons, it cant be too expensive, right? I dont use mascara, but i'm thinking of trying it. ;p
I think the blusher i bought was about $20+. The compact i wanted to get last time in Shanghai was another packaging (white). Not shown on the Spore website leh. It's a 2-way cake with more coverage. ;)
The white-base mascara is sold here at $25.90 & black macara is $24.90... In Japan or Taiwan, they're selling something like $15 to $16. HK also cheaper then Spore.
I only use these 2 products, actually 3 plus their lipgloss.
As for the compact u mentioned i not sure if it's a limited edition kind of stuff..i think for their limited edition they like to use white packaging.
Anyway, their stuffs worth a try! Some Friends & colleagues around me uses this. So we always buy in bulk if someone travel to Japan or Taiwan;p....CY
Wow! Thanks for the info. My husband is in HK now...but i'm not going to bother him to help me get it lah. Too much trouble to describe in detail. Keke... Maybe i will check it out in Spore next month. Thanks! ;)
Actually, i was also thinking of those vibrating mascaras since i'm new at using it! Haha! Any good brands? ;p
I've not tried any vibrating mascara b4. Someone gave my sis a vibrating one from Estee But she says not fantastic, very mild vibration oni;p. Lancome should have one coming up too now, I think can rsvp on some sites. According to reviews, it should be a good one.
Anyway, I think should wait & see cause 1st few batches of new products always not to expectation;p
It's available here. If you want can buy and mail to you.
