ADDICTION by Ayako

[pablohoney]

Anyone know this brand yet?

I do! And I'm sure a few of you do too.

Addiction is a Japanese makeup brand manufactured by the giant cosmetics manufacturer, Kose. The creative director, Ayako, previously worked as the international makeup director for the one and only NARS. So don’t be surprised if what you see here have uncanny similarities to the cult American brand; but if you browse around the product lineup and the shade offerings, you can tell that this lady has a vision all her own.

Here's my first purchase from Addiction:

Hidden Content
(L-R): Cheek Polish 06 Tadzio | Lip Crayon Le Mépris | Ready To Wear Eye Palette 03 Sugar Rusk | Cheek Stick 05 Revenge | Lipstick Monroe Walk

Iya pablooo, aku baca review kamu tuh si quad-shadow addiction dan surprise. Ohya dia menggantikan si naked sister? Wow. Pigmentedkah? Kalo liat swatch sih aku ga ngerasa pigmenteed. Tp harganya emejing haha.

Lippennya cakep bgt. Cheek produknya unik banget, kirain itu nail polish sama another lipstick!

Hai dahhhhlinggg pablohoney, this thread makes me so giddy to hold my cheek stickkk Hidden Content

Yes i'm waiting for my cheek stick in revenge yuhuu ga sabaran.

Cottonseed
Masalah pigmentation, Addiction and other luxe japanese brands bedaaa sama UD gituuu, ini lebih sophisticated but complex and pretty. Kalo macam UD kan high pigment-metallic-pow gituu

[blushingcheek]

pablohoney,
WoooHidden Content thread baru trus liat kemasan cheek productsnya unikkkk, sama kayak cottonseed pas liat poto kirain itu nail polish ama lippen. Pigmentasi n blendability nya gimana 2 produk cheek itu say?

[pablohoney]

cottonseed, hard core pigmentation is not always the first in my book, but the formula, texture and wearability are the ones that really got me loving this palette. I don't always correlate that higher price means better pigmentation though. It's a lot more than just that hehe Hidden Content

tika89, don't forget to show it here once you get it!
Yakin gak mau ambil Lip Crayon juga? Hidden Content

blushingcheek, hihi iya yah, itu Cheek Polish emang nipu banget bentuknya. FYI, this has the exact same packaging as the nail polish, except the glass is frosted on this one. Nanti ya kapan2 kalo ada kesempatan aku foto dua2nya. My cousin has the nail polish hehe.
Sepupuku yg lain pernah hampir pakein ini ke kukunya then I was like "No don't! That's not what you think it is!" Hidden Content

Ditunggu ya the reviews for the Cheek Stick and Cheek Polish Hidden Content

Aaaaaa a thread for Addiction!
Kmrn ada temen d jepun i ended up ordering laduree ... haha skr jd agak nyesel should have titip addiction instead
Price wise ok loh ga se steep suqqu..

No wonder when i see their collection emang somehow reminds me of Nars

Cheek polishnya selalu best cheek colour di majalah jepun.. maquia.. voce.. ♡♡♡
Tadzio mu masuk best 2013 ala voce jan 2014 dehhh

Kayaknya Addiction pioneer konsep liquid blushers di makeup jepun i.e. majolica majorca niruin iniii

[mokona_ai]

pablohoney,
OMG! Semua repiu km bikin mupeng Hidden Content
Dari dulu ngewishlist single eyeshadownya aja ga kesampaian Hidden Content ketumpuk ama hauls brand laen

[pablohoney]

angelajess, definitely not as steep as SUQQU or THREE.
Iyaa I saw Tadzio being featured everywhere. It's a great product though I'm not surprised.

mokona_ai , thank youuu Hidden Content
Ah aku juga pengen banget beli single e/s nya. But but but. Sadar diri aku jarang aneh2 klo eye makeup. Jadi palette-nya aja cukup deh.

I'm writing the review on the Cheek Stick in Revenge. Hopefully I can finish it soon.

And also, I got a new Lip Crayon in Red Lantern, courtesy of Mrs. Adi Hidden Content

Will wear it soon~

[Saralovefashion]

OMG baru tau ada tret ini... udah dari dulu mupeng eyeshadow palettenya, apalagi kalo liat swatch & EOTDnya Kate drivelboutfrivol
Pablohoney itu es palette sama cheek polishnya ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

[twinkle]

pablohoney, semua pilihan productnya mantabss Hidden Content
lippennya monroe walk sukaaa banget
eyeshadownya gmn ya ? lbh kayak nars gt ngga ? secr gue juga g into urban decay palette, lbh sukaan nars
pls review si cheek stick donk Hidden Content
dr dulu pengen nyobain addiction, tp selalu ketumpukan haul brand laen yg lbh banyak limited stuffnya (laduree, suqqu ) smpk ga kesampaian terus

[pablohoney]

Saralovefashion, Cheek Polish-nya bagus bangetttt Hidden Content
Eyeshadow palette yg LE cepet banget habisnya. Warnanya emang unik2 sih klo yg LE itu, gak heran laku berat.

twinkle, ah aku sering lihat dirimu order Japanese brands di Jessi. I'm surprised kamu blom punya Addiction hehe.
Eyeshadow palette yg Sugar Rusk menurutku sih OK ya, but don't take my words wholly, secara aku juga eye makeup begitu2 doang. Supposedly the singles are even better.

Mari-mari share wishlist mu disini Hidden Content

Btw Monroe Walk, awetnya bukan main haha, dengan catatan waktu dipakai itu 2-3 layer with blotting in between ya. Enteng pula jadi enak dibawa kemana2. Makan steak, soto, anything greasy.. tahan!

Review Cheek Stick ditunggu yaaa semoga bisa segera diselesaikan Hidden Content

[twinkle]

Hahahaha Hidden Content spotted wira wiri di lapak jessi
Lg obsessed sm jap brand, uda gt yg high end semua pulak Hidden Content jd ngantri deh belinya, the never ending wishlist
Btw, aku suka ngikutin review lipstick Monday lho, keren2 dah warnanya sukaaaa Hidden Content

Back to addiction, dr pertama pengen beli lipgloss nya miss you more abis liat di rougedeluxe, trus liat2 webnya solonelyingorgeous pgn lipcrayon, tp so far baru punya nail polishnya doang hahaha, warnanya teal sempet jd hit tuh warna di jap magazines
Kalo eyeshadow lbh sukaan palette drpd single scr msh amateur combining color mlh bengong klo disuruh milih single eyeshadownya
Tp kyknya aku pernah baca di blog, klo quality eyeshadow di palette lbh bagus malahan compared to single nya, except for fudge eyeshadow yg dpt raves mulu

Pgn nyobain cheeksticknya, kyknya praktis gt, sm cheek polishnya ohh so cute, cheek polish jd kyk stain gt kah ?

[pablohoney]

twinkle, haha yahh aku ketauan stalking deh Hidden Content
Oh nail polish yang namanya Factory Girl itu bukan? Sepupuku beli itu tuh, emang cakep ya warnanya.

Cheek Polish gak necessarily stain effect gitu sih, misalnya di compare sama Benefit Tints gitu. Finishnya beda, dries matte and soft, not that transparent. Not prone to be patchy and not fussy. Dan punya waktu lebih utk ngeblend juga, gak secepet itu keringnya. Ini yang Tadzio ya btw.

Pas aku beli Tadzio ini aku cuma nemu swatch seadanya aja, di Hidden Content . Pilih warna aman aja sih hehe.

Dulu pas lagi google Tadzio, aku nemu video ini juga, bagian Tadzio starts at 2:50

Ya udah lah ya keliatan warnanya cakep, despite the poor lighting, jadi ambil aja warna ini hehe.

Tapi begitu mulai liat more swatches, kayaknya emang different shades have different formula and pigmentation. Makanya jadi penasaran sama warna2 lain juga.
Misalnya shade Fresh di Hidden Content , ini keliatan banget lebih sheer and watery ketimbang Tadzio.
Nah begitu ketemu shade Chic di Hidden Content , nah udah deh jadi pengen warna ini juga.
Liat yg shade Revenge juga pengennn.

Duh serakah ya Hidden Content
