Mirror mirror on the wall, Asian beauty is the most advanced of them all! Way ahead of the Sakura blossom season Yves Saint Laurent beaute set up a gorgeous Ohanami in the Hills Cafe inside Roppongi Hills.
The space (which ends TODAY!) also celebrates the new cc cream, a perfect pre-foundation fix with three illuminating color variations. The perfect beauty warm up for spring.
While strolling the posh Ginza streets during the Christmas rush, take refuge at the fashion slash beauty photo exhibition at Shiseidos newly opened Tsubaki Hall event space.
The exhibition features 7 ceiling-reach panels displaying respective team-ups with the renowned brand’s hair and make-up pros with Japanese designers including Ne-net, Taro Horiuchi, Toga, Dresscamp, Somarta, Anrealage and Aguri Sagimori.
Also on view are actual garments, and digital projections with photo shoot behind-the-scenes, as well as interviews with each designers and the makeup artists.
“7 Hair and Make-up Artists and Tokyo Fashion” at Shiseido Tsubaki Hall in Ginza is being hold until 25 December.
As the renowned runway makeup artist, artistic director of Shiseido, and collaborator of The Reality Show No. 4 “Beauty is the New Fashion”, Dick Page has pushed the boundaries of the art makeup dishing out daily beauty tips to high fashion makeup shake ups.
Celebrating the latest 2014 Spring maquillage collection, a lavishly kawaii launch party was held at IDOL in Aoyama, welcoming the former club kid (and butcher) and the Chinese goddess-it-girl-model-of-the-moment and Shiseido campaign girl, Sui He.
Mr Page’s artistic studio-the place where he dreams up all of those fabulous colors- was recreated in the space centered around a long table with striking Hollywood style lights. Visitors tested out the latest collection that included lip sticks that Dick named after Japanese traditional elements like Shoyu (soy sauce) and Yuzu (citrus), and plenty of well decorated spots to shoot the perfect selfies. (Bravo to the party hostess Yoshiko, who is our dear friend and a sexiest-momma!)
What? You weren’t invited to the party? We swear you were on the list! Well it will almost feel like you were there if you check the special website and and video by Erotyka Tokyo Paris featuring the creme de la creme of Tokyo cutie pies (and of course the bearded Mr Page). Up only until the end of December!
We must have wished this collaboration into existence.
Guy Bourdin’s photos are now a consumable, wearable THING! Nars, bless him, unveils a covetable line of cosmetics inspired by the late fashion photographer.

Ladies, drag queens, and those taking the SS14 Saint Laurent menswear look literally must complete their looks with the scarlet red rouge lipstick (of course!). The collection of decadent blushes, smoky eye palette and nails polishes are now available at Nars shops and in Tokyo at a pop-up store which is open until this Sunday. Holy ground!

What do Chanel, Fendi, Comme des Garcons, and Undercover have in common? A taste for the strikingly creative and astonishingly artistic hairdos of Katsuya Kamo- he’s known to throw in an avant-garde face mask covered with metal studs, or a giant rose that wraps around model’s heads down the runway too.
To the long list of these prestigious fashion houses and glossies such as Vogue Paris, Vogue Italia, Dazed and Confused and Wallpaper* (not to mention a couple of pages in our book Style Deficit Disorder) clients, Katsuya is the wizard of creative coiffure. See the genius for yourself at the exhibition “100 HEADPIECES” at Laforet Harajuku through November 18- see his private collection of inspirational objects, a replica of his atelier, and the larger-than-life head pieces that evoke the stellar fashion moments they helped to etch in fashion history.
