Recently I attended an event to introduce JAPONESQUE makeup, available exclusively to John Lewis, the brand is known for its beauty tools and brushes but have launched a beautiful makeup collection. Born from a desire to create something truly unique this range of colour cosmetics epitomises that concept: The swirled packaging of each product is a one of a kind individual work of art created from a unique blend of gel pigments that flow and blend before setting – no two will ever be the same. The collection features foundations, powders, eye shadows, blushers, mascara, lipsticks, glosses and more.
I was given a foundation sampler booklet and today I am reviewing the Luminous Foundation and shortly I will be reviewing the Velvet Touch Foundation.
JAPONESQUE say
Flawless liquid makeup. Exquisitely moist liquid foundation for the perfect balance of skin dewiness and flawless coverage. Exceptionally supple texture to layer, blend and customise your coverage. Creamy and comfortable to wear, skin looks radiant and perfectly balanced.

My thoughts
I tried Shade 4 which was the perfect match for me - the others being either too pale or too dark. The foundation is quite runny but feels quite dry to apply so I feel that you need to work quickly with it. It disappears fast into the skin leaving a lovely, flawless appearance and no hint (for me) of the slight redness that I suffer with. I preferred to wear it without a primer as I found it just didn't require it. I think that it looks fresh and bright and it photographs well.
Here I am wearing Luminous Foundation
JAPONESQUE Luminous Foundation costs £24 and is available from John Lewis
Do you know what color you are in Mac or any other foundations to compare the #4? Thanks for the post!
