US. Smashbox Cosmetics has teamed up with renowned illustrative artist Simone Legno, creator of tokidoki, to produce a limited-edition make-up collection for spring 2007.
Tokidoki, rooted in the traditional Japanese art of anime, depicts a fantasy world that is meant to represent the hope and hidden energy within.
Legno’s designs often feature rainbows, clouds and cute, child-like characters, such as the magic make-up angel created for Smashbox. Accordingly, Smashbox has chosen complementary shades of shadow, tints, blush and glosses for the line.
The tokidoki for Smashbox collection features an Eye Shadow Quad (US$30), a Lip Gloss (US$18), a Skin Tint (US$28), Artificial Light (US$22), a Stellina Makeup Mirror (US$32) and a Soft Lights and Brush Set (US$48) – the latter available exclusively at Sephora.
There are also 10 limited-edition Collectors Sets available (exclusively via
www.smashbox.com), which contain the complete make-up collection and are signed by Simone Legno.
The eye shadow quad is available in two colourways: Modella (bone, baby blue, peach and chocolate brown) and Celebrita (baby pink, vibrant purple, pearl and pewter).
The lip gloss comes in two ultra-shimmery shades of pink, called Dolcissima and Drammatica.
The Skin Tint, designed to brighten both cheeks and lips, contains vitamins A, C and E, plus Echinacea and aloe. It too is available in a bright pink shade called Bella.
Artificial Light is sheer luminiser product that can be mixed into foundation or body lotion for a head-to-toe glow. It is also suitable for use as a cheek or brow bone highlighter. The tokidoki shade is Flash di Luce – a pale, pinky gold.
The Stellina Makeup Mirror is a compact mirror presented in a brightly-coloured travel pouch.
The Soft Lights and Brush set is a jumbo pot of pressed powder, imprinted with the tokidoki logo and accompanied by a body fan brush. The shade available is Dolce Vita (pink). The powder should be swept across cheeks, temples and nose for a bright, healthy glow.
That was such a good move for Smashbox, though, his art is so CUTE!
