2018 is proving to be a big year for beauty. One brand in particular that has recently left us breathless with their innovative creations is Shiseido Makeup, which has officially relaunched this year. The brand pointed out that in addition to the extraordinary colors and performance, they wanted their unique, sensorial textures–which range from gels, dews, inks and powders–to be the focal point of their range.
“It was very important that we link the skincare–which is our heritage and pride–to Shiseido Makeup. That said, we are not simply a color brand with skincare claims,” says Gail Boye, the brand’s Senior Vice President of Global Product Development.
