success, beloved by beauticians and dis-
cerning consumers, who value its holistic
make-up-meets-skincare philosophy. This
360-degree approach to beauty is based upon
a combination of cutting-edge science and
traditional rituals – and Suqqu is so com-
mitted to this blend of East and West that it
advocates incorporating facial massage into your daily routine.
The Gankin massage is a three-minute at-home procedure
that is recommended to be completed twice a day, morning and
evening, for maximum results. It involves applying pressure at
fixed points to increase circulation, bringing a healthy glow to
the complexion and boosting lymphatic drainage to help reduce
muscle tension and fluid retention, thereby sculpting the face.
Combining this technique with Suqqu’s new make-up formula
will engender a seemingly effortless radiance just in time for
spring – as well as every season after.To find your perfect foundation match, visit the Suqqu counter at
Selfridges, Harrods or Fenwick of Bond Street and quote ‘Harper’s 20’

Liquid EX, £48After months of short days, cold nights and a battle against the
elements, there are few better moments than when the frost
finally begins to thaw and you can feel the warmth of the sun on
your skin again. But with the change of season comes a change
to your beauty regime – heavy creams, dramatic eyeshadow

who wouldn’t want to look as dewy as a new bloom?
Enter Suqqu. On 12 March, the luxury Japanese brand is
launching a revolutionary update to its bestselling Nude Wear
Liquid foundation, just in time for the warmer weather. The
new Nude Wear Liquid EX has been created by the company’s
award-winning product-development team and features a
unique ‘complexion powder’, which gives seamless coverage
that lasts for hours, yet maintains a natural finish and barely-
there feel. The translucent blend is infused with skin-enhancing
oils, resulting in a combination of serum-
like smoothness and coverage akin to a
liquid foundation, but with all the staying
power of a powder formulation.
This kind of innovation and attention
to detail has become synonymous with
Suqqu’s ethos. The company’s origins lie
in Japanese film sets – with the advent
of high-definition camera technology, its
laboratory began, in collaboration with
professional make-up artists, to develop
natural-looking yet full-coverage products
to ensure the actors would appear flawless on the big screen.
Since its inception in 2003, Suqqu has blossomed from one
of the Japanese film industry’s best-kept secrets into a global
