Kanebo LUNASOL is not a new name in the cosmetics scene. LUNASOL is derived from Latin words, Luna (moon) and Sol (sun). Founded in 1999, it has been growing strong ever since. As for me, I got to know about LUNASOL when I watched 女人我最大 few years back. The ease of application captured my attention and I remembered this brand until now.

A closer look of the eyeshadow palette, cream blusher and lip gloss
The palette: Upper Left: A highlighter shade in light champagne color with shimmery gold flecks
Upper Right: A follow-up color in bronzy gold-toned beige
Bottom Left: A main color in beige taupe with slight silver shimmer
Bottom Right: A shade color in dark brown with beautiful gold shimmer Review: Skin Modeling Eyes in 01 Beige Beige As nude looks are very well received now, this kit is the perfect tool you’ll need to create your own nude makeup. A neutral palette, it gives my eyes the definition that it needs and yet doesn’t look too made up. But for those who have darker skin tones, it is recommended that you apply a base on your eyes first before applying the eyeshadow in order for it to show up well. I found these tips to apply Skin Modeling Eyes eyeshadow from Lunasol’s website. I hope you’ll find it useful =)
How to use Skin Modeling Eyes palette
Cream Cheek in EX08 (Soft Orange Coral) Blusher is very important to ensure our face doesn’t look pale like a ghost LOL! At the same time, I wouldn’t want to look like a Chinese opera singer too! So I proceed with caution and apply bit by bit on the apples of my cheek. Luckily enough, it was easy to blend so I can just push it away if it looks overdone. Full Glamour Gloss in EX20 (Soft Orange Coral) Just looking on the packaging, I thought it would be a very pinkish color so I was kinda worried of the outcome. Upon applying it, it doesn’t look so pink. In fact, it blends with the natural color of your lips with some fine shimmer, leaving it glossy and kissable!
Before
After
Color wasn’t so obvious on the eye part but defined the eyes more
and there were some shimmer on the brow bone.
OK! Maybe a close up! :p
See the ‘stars’ on my eyelids?

I'm fascinated by the cream cheek! Although I think i would prefer a much pinker version. XD You look nice with the makeup on, very natural and pretty. ^^
I used to be a big fan of them and collected few of their palettes but recently their colours are repeating in new collection. I would agree each and every pallette is pretty, wearable and long lasting too but we dont need so many almost same colour palette right. Another reason stop buying from them is their management really doing a bad job handling customers got so many pending issues regarding my points redemptions which falls into deaf ears.
very nice…
looks very natural and not too strong….pretty 🙂
Thank you!
Just like your name, simple ma 🙂
