In the upcoming months, there is a malicious, inevitable meteor that is hurling its self towards all the Sonia Rykiel beauty counters in Japan; making the brand go the way of the dinosaur. In the words that Kate and I have expressed to one another, "why can't we have nice things?!" Sonia Rykiel Beauty IS one of my favorite Japanese cosmetics brands...it's definitely in my top three and that is a profound statement because I don't like "categorizing" things. With that said, it's shameful that I haven't posted anything on said favorite brands until now.
From left to right: Eyeshadow Duo 12, Perfect Eyeliner 03, Glowing Powder Blusher 03, Sublime Rouge 03.
In the next several posts, I will be showcasing/reviewing on each product I own; so this more of a "look" post than a proper review. That being written, if there is something you've been eyeing from Sonia Rykiel, buy it! Because the brand is truly amazing, and it pains me that it's folding.

EVERY PRODUCT from Sonia Rykiel is a gem; there isn't a single dud in the entire line. I use many Sonia Rykiel products professionally, and personally...I've been purchasing multiple backups of everything before the line goes bye-bye at the end of December or January.
Have you tried Sonia Rykiel Beauty?
Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.
This is such a beauty! This is my first time to know about this brand and its sooo pretty. Love the packaging and the colors too. Will check on these.....
ReplyDeleteSonia Rykiel is one of my all time favorite brands. I recommend EVERYTHING!
DeleteYou look a zesty delight, my love, to cheer us up in the face of this decidedly un-sunny news D:
ReplyDeleteLol, I've worked my way to the third stages of grief now :P
DeleteOh I'm so glad to see this series of posts!! Even though the context makes me sad :(
ReplyDeleteI know! I'm going to chain myself to the counter in protest on the last day! I'm not kidding :P
DeleteOh no! Sonia Rykiel Beauty is folding?!
ReplyDeleteSadly, it's true :'(

ReplyDeleteLike this one, recently wanted to buy some crystal jewelry dress themselves,Swarovski boucles more like，but I do not know too many styles to pick that good, we help to the point.
Hope you found something :D
Delete*cries* I can't find this brand's blushes or eye shadows anywhere! They got discontinued, but usually there's still something somewhere! Why?!?!?!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI know, I'm still not over the loss of my beloved Sonia Rykiel. As far as I know, all the counters have been pulled, but you can try ebay or other online vendors.
