4 New Products from the Japonesque Color Collection at Ulta Stores
Achieving the perfect complexion with make-up isn’t easy. Thanks to some of the new products from the Japonesque Color Collection available at Ulta, achieving perfection just got a little smoother. And I do mean smooth. I’ve been testing out a few new products from the Japonesque Color Collection and I’m really impressed with my results.
Disclosure: I received free product samples to facilitate my review. Any opinion expressed in this article is based on my experience with the products.
Japonesque Liquid Light
The Liquid Light is a highlighting hero that dresses skin in an illuminating veil of radiance. This innovative light-reflecting liquid glides on to refresh and enhance the complexion’s natural glow – creating a beautiful shimmering incandescence that ‘lights skin from within.’ These translucent, weightless formulas give instant radiance and luminosity to the complexion and can be used alone as a makeup base or as a highlighting accent to shape and lift the facial contours. The Liquid Light will give you a faux sun kissed glow all year round. Truly versatile, liquid light can be mixed with any moisturizer to be applied to the legs, décolleté or arms!
A little goes a long way with this product so start small and add more product if you need some extra shimmer. This product blends so easily and is non-irritating. I love that you can use it more of a primer or as a highlighter over foundation.

Japonesque Radiance Primer
Inspired by backstage makeup techniques, the Radiance Primer is the ultimate remedy for a complexion that radiates beauty and light. Its weightless and silky texture glides onto the skin and offers a pearlescent optical imperfection blurring effect. The subtle shimmer will restore radiance and luminosity. Reflective pigments attract and diffuse light while adding hyper-real youthful beauty to the skin. This unique formula dries like a gel, filling your skins lines and creases for a flawless finish.
This is a great primer if you aren’t worries about a little shine. The pearlescent sheen really does blur imperfections which makes this primer a great one for photography. As I recommended with the highlighter, start small and add more as you need it. I noticed that when applying too much of the Radiance Primer, my skin felt a little tight as it dried. I solved this problem by using less product.

Japonesque Velvet Touch Primer
The Velvet Touch Primer is an exquisite weightless gel that primes the skin with a veil of velvety perfection. It glides over skin to create an invisible skin canvas to smooth and mattify the complexion, while creating the illusion of flawless looking skin and dramatically improving makeup hold. Unlike existing primers, this formula does not “ball off” and instead creates a clean canvas for makeup that will last throughout the day.
This Velvet Touch Primer is my favorite for everyday use. The smell is a little funky but I really love the way it really leaves my skin feeling like velvet. It dries almost instantly so my face is ready for foundation immediately. This product goes on nice and thin and is great for layering.

Japonesque Pro Makeup Artist Wipes
These pro artist makeup wipes are the preferred makeup remover choice of renowned makeup artists and beauty enthusiasts alike. The soft cloths instantly dissolve and gently remove makeup, dirt and grime, while hydrating the skin with Vitamin E. Each individually wrapped wipe is incredibly refreshing, alcohol-free and environmentally friendly. These wipes are a necessity for keeping you feeling refreshed all summer long. A travel-friendly essential, simply throw in your carry-on or gym bag to freshen your face in a pinch!
Makeup wipes are a must-have for those busy mommy nights. I also like them for travel. Depending on how much makeup you wear, you may need to use more than one wipe to get the job done but since these are non-drying, there’s no need to worry. These are also really great for the gym bag, as mentioned in the description above.
