『女自転車ふたり旅 in ハワイ ふたりのビックアイランド』長澤まさみ 2009 NHK

 

Lovely NHK TV show featuring friends Masami Nagasawa and Asami Mizukawa travelling by bicycle through Hawaii. Beautiful nature views of the island on this cute program aired back in 2009. I’ve been re-watching my Masami’s video library and took some snapshots of this. She does not look nature friendly at all, cleaning and carefully examining vegetables and fruit before having a bite. But she looks very cute with long hair. Asami looks like someone I would like to be friends with, she is fun and loud and not as afraid of trying new things as Masami, so I understand how they compliment each other.

Hawaii seen like this looks like paradise, especially the sunshine from the top of the mountain.

「群青」長澤まさみ Cobalt Blue

Today I re-watched Cobalt Blue. What a beautiful film. It did strike me the first time I watched it and recently it came back to my mind. I put off watching it for a week for one reason or the other, daily life got in the way, but finally today I could not avoid it any longer. The shots of the island in Okinawa are so peaceful I couldn’t help myself from making some screencaps. I wish I had the Blu-ray version, must be breath taking. 

A sad teen love triangle, with a story that started 20 years earlier. Love, loss and heartbreak are a few of the themes this film touches. Set with a slow pace, it was a pleasure to watch, like a field of flowers softly dancing with the summer breeze.

I look forward to watch Starlit High Noon which is from the same director and cinematographer.

長澤まさみ Seda November 2014

 

*SCANS FOUND ON PINTEREST*

A few months old, but a really nice spread of Masami Nagasawa in Seda. More insights on her beauty, although nothing new (we already knew she uses Acseine, which is super expensive…), but she looks so pretty! On the last page they itemise the products used to create this Masami look, but bear in mind these are not the ones she usually uses, these were just for the spread. She is rarely seen wearing blush. For foundation she usually uses a mix of Cle de peau liquid foundation (also super expensive) and 24h Cosme stick foundation.

Wood Job! （長澤まさみ）

Wood Job, what a film! It is so beautifully filmed I just had to make some screencaps myself, I got the Blu-ray, so the quality is brilliant! I mainly watched this because  of Masami Nagasawa, without any expectations whatsoever, and I was pleasantly surprised. It is such a heart warming story, with a few funny parts. It is the story of a high school graduate who didn’t make it to uni and, following a touch of “fate”, ends up going for a forestry course far away from Tokyo. A city boy finds the usual hardships in adapting to the country side life, but it slowly grows in him.  This is not a love story, although there is one in the film. It is more about the good things that come with a simple hardworking life in a place where you can’t get a mobile connection, where there are no bus stops and not even supermarkets. I highly recommend it, if only for the beautiful visuals of the forest! And if you think the title sounds like a pun, wait until the end of the film, haha.

長澤まさみ MORE scans January 2015

 

 

 
The magazine came out a couple of weeks ago and I forgot all about these scans. Masami is so cute and look how long her hair is! The title of this spread is “I want to know about Masami Nagasawa!” She tells us a few beauty tips on this interview. Like she uses Anna Sui’s eyebrow powder, Chanel’s brown mascara and Three’s body lotion. She takes quick baths very often and her preference goes for monochrome fashion. Her motto is to see herself through her own eyes.

Please support her and buy the original magazine.

Probably no surprise to someone who knows me, but I am a massive Masami Nagasawa fan. I follow everything she acts in and I go to great lengths to keep an updated file of magazine scans and such. I just love her to bits since about 6 or 7 years ago when I bought a magazine she was in. I secretly fell in love with her and the flame keeps burning in my heart ever since! Haha, I’m totally biased when it comes to her.

Anyways, I do freely admit that I wish I had been born her twin, because for me she’s the cutest thing on earth, a natural beauty. Nothing special really about her looks, it’s just a natural cuteness. Put her next to any actress and she will always look the cutest somehow. I do try to look similar to Masami on a daily basis, there, I said it. Finally I had the courage to admit it on my blog. Of course the fact that she is Japanese and I’m not even the slightest asian looking makes things difficult, but what can I say, love is blind and I keep trying.

This was one of those attempts at the cover of Maquia (2013 December issue). It is a very simple cute look. Masami has the most glorious flawless glowing skin ever! so I’ve used the Bourjois 123 Perfect collection to give me that healthy skin look and shimmering blush and highlighter for a soft glow, as masami usually wears very little to nothing on the cheeks. The eyebrows are the most difficult part because hers are so straight and mine more arched and thick, so I kept them soft. The eyes were super easy, the half baked shade on the eyelid, black pencil liner smudged with the smog shade and a thin liquid liner to finish with a very minimal almost non-existent wing. Add a natural mascara and a reddish tinted gloss at the end. Super simple cute look for going on a date or shopping, those occasions when you don’t want too much make up on your face but still enough to make you feel pretty.

And that’s it! Hope the scans are helpful to anyone who also enjoys Masami’s look.

Masami Nagasawa "More" Jan scans

Scans from the January issue of the Japanese magazine "More" featuring Masami Nagasawa. Anyone who used to visit my blog a couple of years ago will know how much I love this girl. In case you don't know yet, let me tell you, I love her to pieces. I really do. At times it is more of a sort of obsession and every day I live on Masami. Other times it is more like a secret love sleeping quietly, until the obsession strikes again. Why? I can't really explain it myself, I guess she's just my type. I can't think of anyone cuter than Masami. My little brain seriously thinks she's the cutest person ever and I go on about to all my friends for hours and every one gets sick of listening to me, especially because most of them don't share my opinion! Ha! 

I'll admit this shoot isn't one of her best, but I love it all the same because I'm that biased!
