An upbeat EDM-style track crammed to the brim with makeup terms every girl knows.
People say what’s inside matters more than appearances, but I want it all—makeup, fashion, everything—to become the best version of myself! That honest feeling is portrayed straight and true.

I love the adorable voice of 16-year-old singer-songwriter Yumo Sakaguchi and the lyrics that feel like distilled adolescent sensitivity.
Makeup is something special for girls—once you discover it, you get closer to being an adult, yet you still want to stay a child—and that expression is so dear it squeezes my heart.
makeupNakajima Miyuki
A heartrending song that richly conveys the feelings of a woman defeated in love.
It carries a profound message that makes you reconsider the meaning of makeup as an act of adorning oneself.
It’s a classic that has also been covered by artists such as Shinobu Otake and Fuyumi Sakamoto.
NEW LOOKAmuro Namie
It’s a makeover song for girls that includes not just makeup but also hairstyles and fashion, with a superb arrangement that blends retro sounds while giving it a modern finish.
The lyrics, about wanting to become a new self with a new hair and makeup style, are easy to relate to.
Dogma MagmaOmori Seiko
It’s a track that shines with Seiko Omori’s signature flair, cleverly rendering venom-laced lyrics with a comic touch.
Within this intense song that sounds an alarm to modern society, makeup isn’t portrayed as something for fun, but as one of the tools used to press oneself into society’s mold.
Scarf and toileScarf & the SuspenderS
Set to a jazzy sound, the lyrics exude a languid yet cool vibe.
As the title suggests, the song portrays makeup that seems to intertwine with style and perfume—and with scent itself—leaving a lingering impression, subtly imbued with sensuality.
I’m in love.Kato Miria
The lyrics about being invited out by the person she loves, doing her makeup perfectly, yet constantly checking the mirror portray a straightforwardly lovestruck girl that’s easy to relate to.
The arrangement is laid-back yet has a distinctive sense of rhythm, making it a pleasure to listen to.
