New Dolly Wink products!

Hello there sweets~ ^__^

I wanted to let you know that Tsubasa's new Dolly Wink collection has been released in Japan!

Here is a peek at the whole new collection, I tried to translate it as best as possible lol :P

Little quote from Tsu-chan and why she decided to create the new Dolly Wink collection.

"Wanted to graduate from artificial or fake looking makeup style but I cannot let go of the "kawaii" cute style!

Dolly Wink will grant the wish for the girls that want it both with a little mix of Retro and Macaroon color a pure daisy like feel creating a more of "Otona" grown up style cosmetic."

Tsu-chan shared why she decided to produce her line with Koji

Why did Tsubasa decide to partner up with KOJI to make her False lashes?

1. They are handmade

Each handmade by a person made accurately and the lashes are interval together by hand.

2. Koji lashes are made very durable 

The lashes are durable enough to be used repeatedly for over a month! 

3. The false lashes blends in well with the natural lashes 

Look closely at the tip of the hair,

One by one the tip of the hair have been shaved thin in the ends.

3. Koji has been making beauty products for 80 years!

Koji has a long history in making eye makeup products so they understood and cater to my ideas.

6 new false lashes

3 different color eye brow mascaras in

1. Milk Tea  2. Mocha  3. Cocoa

what it says?

Strong against water and sweat but it easy washes off with warm water, film type eye brow mascara.

3 eyebrow Pencil in

1. Honey Brown  2. Choco Brown  3. Dark Chocolat

What it says?

With a soft core pencil it is easy to draw a natural looking eyebrows with this eyebrow pencil

Eyebrow Powder in 3 different shades in

1. Honey Brown  2. Choco Brown  3. Dark Chocolat

What it says?

With a vivid color pigments, eyebrow powder containing two colors will finish with a soft natural eyebrow.

Lash fix false eyelashes glue in 2 type

 Black and standard *clear type* 

Im not too fond of the new packaging design but I can see that she tried to make it more toned down for that "OTONA" feel to them which otona basically translate to adult or grown ups.. ^^;; I am looking forward in trying out their new eyebrow stuff and the black lash fix looks nice too~

just a fyi
