You are actually using this holiday collection this time; please tell us your favorite points. Sana: For blush, I am using “YSL Make Me Blush Cream” No. 44 and No. 86, and for lips I am using “YSL Loveshine Gloss Plumper” No. 10. By adding glitter, it creates a gorgeous shine. Q. Among the gifts you have received so far, is there anything that left a particularly strong impression on you? Sana: I once received a YSL candle as a gift, and I use it whenever I want to relax, regardless of the season. Especially during the holiday season, I think a warm fragrance is important, so I want to be healed a lot this holiday season with a YSL candle in order to lift my mood. Q. The year is almost over; is there anything you have left undone this year, or anything you want to challenge yourself with from here on? Sana: This year there were things like the world tour, and I was not really able to spend time with my friends, so for the remaining time I want to meet my friends as much as time allows. ◆ MEOVV Anna Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Anna: In addition to group activities this year, I was also able to do a lot of individual work, so I want to say, “Good job for the whole year!” ◆ Tsubasa Honda Q. If you were to attend a glamorous party, what kind of makeup would you want to wear? Tsubasa Honda: Even in a dazzling space, I would want to attend with makeup that gives a sense of happiness. The blush I am wearing this time is No. 44 of “YSL Make Me Blush Cream,” and it is a blush that gives both a sense of happiness and glamour, so I would want to attend wearing makeup using this. ◆ Neru Nagahama Q. If you were to give a gift to someone important from this collection, to whom and which product would you give? Neru Nagahama: The limited item this time, “YSL Make Me Blush Cream,” can be used on both lips and cheeks, so I would like to give it to my mother. My mother has recently made solo travel her hobby and has become obsessed with traveling alone to various countries, so I thought I would give her an item that can be used in multiple ways so that she can enjoy makeup properly while keeping her travel luggage as light as possible. ◆ Mizuki Yamashita Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Mizuki Yamashita: This year I was able to do theater again after a long time, and I stood on stage for the first time in several years. I was very nervous and it was a daily battle, but it was truly a wonderful experience, so I want to give myself a reward for working hard on the stage. ◆ Riku Hagiwara Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Riku Hagiwara: This year, compared with before, there were many roles that were first-time challenges. I am currently playing a doctor’s role as well. This is also a challenge that I had never done before, and it is something I would like to tell myself I worked hard on. ◆ INI Rihito Ikezaki and Shogo Tajima Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Rihito Ikezaki: I worked hard on skincare, doing a face mask every day and carrying face masks with me wherever I went. I want to praise myself for working hard on skincare. Q. If you were to attend a glamorous party, what kind of fashion would you want to wear? Shogo Tajima: At a party like this, I would want to dress chicly in all black, and at something like a takoyaki party, I would want to attend wearing an INI tour T-shirt. ◆ Alan Shirahama Q. If you were to attend a glamorous party, what kind of fashion would you want to wear? Alan Shirahama: I would want to attend in an outfit just like today’s. I think people associate LDH with black suits, so as our formal wear, I would want to attend in a sharp black suit. ◆ Yoji Iwase Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Yoji Iwase: I was able to encounter various roles, and it was a year in which I was able to do my best while sincerely facing each role one by one! I want to keep working hard without sparing any effort so that I can grow even more next year. ◆ Aya Omasa Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Aya Omasa: The first thing that came to mind was one thing: child-rearing. My son has just passed 1 year and 6 months old, and I have traveled with him in various ways. Since he is one year old, there were many first-time experiences as a parent, such as catching colds and such, so I think I worked harder at child-rearing than at work. ◆ Emi Suzuki Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Emi Suzuki: This year I worked very hard on training. Until now I had not exercised much, only riding a bicycle, but this year I went to the gym and worked hard at weight training for a whole year. Just the other day, I even bought a stretching pole for home (laughs). I want to keep working hard on training. ◆ Fumika Baba Q. If you were to attend a glamorous party, what kind of makeup would you want to wear? Fumika Baba: I want to make it more glamorous than usual, so I want to wear sparkly makeup. I do not often have a chance to dress up privately, so I want to wear a beautiful dress. Hmm, where should I go? I want the place to be somewhere where I can have delicious food. ◆ Ryubi Miyase Q. If you were to attend a glamorous party, what kind of makeup would you want to wear? Ryubi Miyase: I have not been to many parties, but I have a dream: I would like to have a properly custom-made suit, add flowers in the color of the party to my breast pocket, and go to the party wearing makeup that matches the color of the flowers. ◆ Keisuke Watanabe Q. Looking back on this year, is there anything you would tell yourself, “You worked hard!” about? Keisuke Watanabe: This is personal, but every year I start the year by making it a habit to be careful about my health. This year, especially, I got sick a lot. I had some physical ailments that I had never experienced before in my life, but being able to keep working while suppressing that strongly felt like a successful experience, and I feel like I really got through it. So I am thinking, “I can still do it, 33 years old!” ◆ Billlie Tuki
