Here are more pics of the complete Anna Sui Summer 2017 Magical Aquarium collection posted by Biteki. This is a welcome return to the brand's more whimsical form and miles more attractive than the florid revamp of 2016.

Suqqu Summer 2017
Here are more pics of the Suqqu Summer 2017 collection by Voce. The bronze and warm grey palette is 洸砂 (Hikarisuna) while the blue palette is 蒼渚 (Aonagisa). If the new Designing Color Eyes palettes bear some resemblance to Lunasol's palettes, it's not surprising considering that both brands are owned by Kanebo. Based on various blog reviews, the Designing Color Eyes appear to more user-friendly with better payoff but for several longtime Suqqu fans, the distinctive character of the Suqqu Blend Color Eyes palettes with their mix of matte, pearl and shimmery textures has been lost in this renewal.
Debuting on 7 April is the new line of Volume Eyebrow Mascara (3000yen, 4 shades) and Framing Eyebrow Liquid Pen (3000yen, 4 shades).

Suqqu Summer 2017
Suqqu will release its marine-themed Summer 2017 collection on 1 May in Japan. The collection includes two limited edition (sigh) Designing Color Eyes (6800yen), a blush/bronzer palette, two lip shades and their revamped Nail Polish line (2500yen, 10 shades). Pics by Maquia.

The ever brilliant Wondegondigo has an excellent post on the current Spring 2017 collection and Suqqu's reformulation of its beloved eyeshadow range. The brand continues to be a main staple of my collection but my love affair with it has faded greatly following their recent distribution issues in the UK, most notoriously with the UK-exclusive Summer 2016 collection which descended into complete chaos to the frustration of many longtime fans. The recent release of the Spring 2017 collection was also marred by instant sell-outs on Selfridges.com, although the brand continues to insist that customers can place orders by emailing them directly. My Suqqu collection is massive enough that I no longer feel the need to chase down their new releases, especially when they can't seem to sort out their distribution issues even months after the fiasco of last summer. It's a brand that I still love but not enough to jump through these crazy hoops. For anyone still trying to get their hands on Suqqu's latest releases, you are probably better off trying a personal shopper service based in Japan, for example through Shopandbox.com or Ichibankao.com (which come with their own fees but are at least more reliable).

Paul & Joe Summer 2017 15th Anniversary Collection
Paul & Joe goes for more kooky feline madness in its upcoming 15th Anniversary Makeup Collection (9500yen) launching on 7 April in Japan. The set includes six cat-shaped face and eye colours, a lipstick and a metal tin that can house three of the face colours plus the lipstick. Pics by Osadanna.
The set is a pass for me as I just don't see myself having the luxury of time to faff around with those dinky little cats. The recycled cat and chrysanthemum prints are also a bit of a bore.
There will also be a new Sun Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ and Sun Cream SPF10 PA+ (2800yen, 75g) launching on the same date.

Majolica Majorca Spring 2017 and New Spokesmodel
Majolica Majorca has announced model/actress Tamashiro Tina as its new spokesmodel starting from 21 February. Previously ViVi magazine's youngest exclusive model at the age of 14, Tamashiro starred in the short video clip released by Majolica in November 2016. It racked up over 1.2 million views within 3 days. What's odd is that there does not appear to be any new products for Spring 2017 and the campaign will merely re-promote the Lash Expander Long Long Long mascara. It befuddles the mind why the brand continues to spend more on fancy marketing instead of actual product development to satisfy its massive fan base.
