Suqqu is back, and this NEW collection celebrates a large “Spectrum of Beauty.” Embodying the brand's values of beauty that evolve with movement and daily life. The Japanese origin resonates through the collection design.

The Eye & Blush Compact – 101 Toukougasane

The eye & blush compact palette comprises four eye shadows and one blush. Created with a vision of harmony amongst the shades, this palette, thus, lets you get creative and play with color, light, and shadow around the eyes and the cheeks.

The four eyeshadows each have their finish:

• The pearl formula captures light for a metallic shine.
• The clear cream formula offers an excellent hold and adds a fresh touch to the lids.
• The matte formula has a translucent tint with a hint of shadow.
• Lastly, The pearl shimmer produces a vivid color perfect for adding depth.

The sheer blush is perfect for adding a touch of warmth and color to the cheeks or eye contour. Available in two limited edition shades:

• 101 Toukougasane: An orange palette that creates a healthy and modern shade. Perfect to combine with brighter looks, it adds a buildable coverage to the cheeks. (as in pictures above)
• Also, 102 Yumesakikou: A pink palette that adds a feminine color and charm to your natural skin tone.

The Face Compact – 101 Harutsuya

The NEW compact powder is a unique and flawless approach to radiant skin. Presented in a three-dimensional pattern, the powder gives a beautiful glow to the skin. Suqqu has designed their cosmetic powder using a 3D printer for the first time. Thus, the 3D pattern represents the spreading trajectory of light and how the powder creates a radiant, skin-perfecting finish.

This lightweight powder is ideal to use on its own or over makeup for a natural look. Also, you can use the powder in many ways, from a setting powder to base makeup or as a highlighter on the cheeks.

The face compact is available in three limited edition shades:

• 101 Harutsuya: This bright and natural gold-toned blush offers a pearly finish on the skin. The golden tone looks great on warmer skin tones and is ideal for highlighting zones. (as in pictures)

Suqqu thought this one through! Their latest addition uses an exclusive technique to ensure comfort all day long. The foundation follows your movements without restricting or causing discomfort.

My Review

I was excited to discover the new Suqqu The Foundation, one of the finest cream foundations I know. I selected the shade 035, a medium golden undertoned shade for my skin.

Easy to apply, you can use your fingertips or a makeup brush to hide away any signs of redness or uneven skin tone. I recommend this foundation for the cooler season, as its texture is enveloping and comfortable. Although richer than the other Suqqu foundations, it doesn't feel heavy or look plastery in the skin. I got so many compliments when wearing this foundation!

I enjoy the Suqqu Liquid Foundation and love using it depending on my mood and the finish I seek. Check my review here. Also, check out my picks from the Suqqu Autumn/Winter Collection here.

The Autumn/ Winter 2023 Colors

SUQQU, for the Autumn/Winter 2023 Color Collection, has chosen a subtle range of colours, such as powdered pinks and soft beiges, with shimmering silvers and deep rose shades. Throughout the collection, the products have a shimmer, almost metallic finish. Therefore, I have selected my favourite products to present to you.

Suqqu Liquid Luster Eyes

SUQQU Autumn/Winter 2023 Color Collection has high-pigmented eye shadows that pop your eyes. Creamy and easy to blend, creating an ombre look has never been easier. The liquid luster will be available in 7 shades, including two limited editions (silver and gold). In conclusion, I adore shades 04 – a Deep beige, and 05, a powdered pink tint.

How To Use It?

The liquid eye luster can be used in many different ways:

• Apply one shade to all eyelids for a monochrome look, or use multiple shades to create an ombre.
• I enjoyed using them on the inner corner of the eye to bring a touch of light.
• Lastly, Apply a thin line under the bottom lashes with khol for a sexy, night-out look.

Suqqu Pure Color Blush

The well-known range of compact powder blushers is back with two limited edition colours for Autumn/Winter 2023. (142, 143). Fine in texture but rich in pigment, these blushers are the perfect way to add a touch of colour to your face.

The Autumn Shades 142 is a smooth, deep pink shade perfect for matching all color makeup. If you want something to warm up your cheeks, then shade 143 is ideal with its brown./ terracotta appearance, this blusher is the perfect way to heat your skin complexion.

Suqqu Moisture-Rich Lipstick

The iconic moisturizing lipstick is back with a trio of new shades. Famous for its irresistibly comfortable and shiny finish, therefore, this range of lipsticks has been one of my favourites for a long time. My favourite addition is shade number 126, a velvety smooth, light pink. Moreover, this shade is a must for those that love a no-makeup, makeup look.

How To Use It?

You can use this range alone or over other lip products. When placed in the center of the lips, these lipsticks add volume.

My Opinion

The NEW Autumn/Winter 2023 Color Collection from SUQQU already gives me makeup look ideas. The liquid luster look amazingly smooth and easy to use, which will be so much fun. I love the fact that Suqqu has stepped away from the classical burnt orange autumn shades and opted for something a little softer in terms of colors. The eyeshadow palettes also look amazing and combine both matte and shimmer/ metallic shades within them. I have always enjoyed mixing textures and will use the shimmer shades as eyeliners. Also, you can do this by wetting your brush and creating a paste with the eyeshadow pigments. In conclusion, I look forward to wearing this collection!

N° 122 is an orange-brown shade, perfect to get those blue eyes popping. Did you know that blue and orange are complementary colours?

That's why the gold and blue Pearl inside this lipstick complete the look. Reflecting the light adds volume to your lips.

This liquid foundation has a lot going on inside. Let's take a closer look at what makes it so special: They are using a fluid Pigment for the first time in Suqqu foundations history.

After that take a small amount of Suqqu The Liquid Foundation and apply it to the different zones (forehead, cheeks, nose, chin). You can do it with your fingers or a brush to smooth out the product. With a brush, you get higher coverage.

The post Suqqu The Liquid Foundation Review appeared first on The Velvet Life.

The brand's name Suqqu comes from a traditional expression from Japan. Meaning: “A woman rising to her full height” they created the brand to enhance women's natural beauty. The collections are designed around the different seasons of the year.

The Gankin Massage

Originally known for their exclusive “Gankin massage”. It is well worth the extra time in the bathroom. Giving stunning results it works on the 3 main structural features of the face: skin, muscle and bone.

Minimalist beauty

Whilst researching skin, Suqqu realized that the skin does not act alone, each structure is linked. Meaning that to have the ultimate result you have to stimulate all of them:

Muscle

There is nothing better than a smiley face. Thanks to our facial muscles we can express our emotions and by doing so move the skin. Like in sports, trained muscles also tone and smooth the skin.

Bone

We are not talking about ghosts and skeletons but our facial bone structure. It is important to observe our faces and understand how to apply makeup accordingly when applying makeup.
If the structure of the makeup is pretty then the rest follows.

Blood and lymph flow

A bad blood or lymph flow can cause multiple visual effects on the face (dark circles or bags under the eyes, etc.) By massaging the face the flow improves and signs of tiredness disappear.

Pre Summer Vibes

Suqqu released their new pre-summer 2022 collection. Inspired by the natural phenomena of ” sea glass” and the myth of mermaids. The transforming pearly colours enlighten your face.

Signature Color Eyes – 113 NAMIMIGAKI & 114 SUMIMIDORI(4 shades)

These eye palettes are composed of 4 high pigmented shades in total. You have a choice of 3 shimmering shades and one mat. They come with brushes to apply.

113 – If you could capture a sunset, then this would be it. From a shade of pink coral to an evening sky sunset. This palette has a composition of pink, purples and browns.

114 – If you could capture a beachside, then this would be it. From the shade of sandy beaches to the deep blue ocean. This palette is mostly composed of beige, blues and powder pink.

Suqqu Pure Color Blush – 130 BENIKAIZOME

This blush is sure to keep you peachy. With a smooth pink colour gradient, you are left with multiple choices. From a flashy pink to pearly golden pink. You apply just one colour or mix both.

Comfort Lip Fluid Fog – 108 YUUSANGO & 109 KAORIMIGAKI

Flawless Lip Gloss – 111 AWAKICHA
