Tweet I was sent this cool kit by Shu Uemura to look at – Shu and me go back a long time, my first high end make up love, yada yada yada. And yet a lot of people still stare at me blankly when I tell them about Shu Uemura. “Who made your lipstick?” “Shu Uemura.” “MAC?” “She Uemura” “MAC?” “Shu Uemura” “M-A-C?” And so on. For those who don’t know, this discovery kit is a good starting point! Three {Read More}
Tweet I am now the owner of three Shu Uemura Supreme Shine lipsticks – these don’t generally last too well but by god, they are absolutely – gorgeous – instant – sex – bomb. Newest addition is RD 165 which they call a ‘Universal Red’. Glossy, sheer reds are my bag. I am too chicken to wear bright, matte, opaque red lipstick out day to day – there I said it. I’m not Coco Chanel, I don’t work at Vogue, {Read More}
Tweet UPDATE: Ladies, this shade is called PK 052! I reviewed the Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Supreme Shine Lipstick before – love the texture, love the result but hate that it fades without a trace within a few hours. But I did say – I LOVE the result. Instant kitten with one coat. So I went back and bought this unusual shade: Sorry can’t remember the name of it – its Lilac and is one of the artist colors (there’s {Read More}
Tweet I purchased this Lip Vinyl a good few weeks ago – its a natural beige type shade in the Lip Vinyl texture which is quite a wet looking gloss. I previously bought this in the hot pink which is just gorgeous! There aren’t many shades to choose from in the Lip Vinyl texture so I don’t know how long this formula will be around for. At £18 I think its quite expensive but its super easy to use. This {Read More}
Tweet I broke my no buy rule (yes, I do actually have one…sort of) to splash out on this Shu Uemura Lip Vinyl Lip Gloss in PK359 (a hot pink) and their lip pencil in PINK 360. I love hot pink lips, I do, but it has to be the right hue and the right texture. I love Nars Schiap Lipstick but the texture is too drying on me. Hence, I was looking for the perfect hot pink for me. {Read More}
Tweet I was entirely innocent – there I was browsing the Shu Uemura counter when the lady (very loud, very scary) grabbed me to show me this new lipstick – the Rouge Unlimited Supreme Shine! Of course I didn’t say no! D’oh! I only bought one as these babies are £19.50 each. I got shade PK340 which is a peachy pink with lots of shimmer. Theres a nice, fairly natural shade selection, a few deeper colours and three artist shades {Read More}
Tweet When I went away to London this weekend, I took my glorious Shu Uemura Palette with me. Its truly one of the best palettes I own (and I put a lot of them together myself)…. I am considering buying another large palette – its fab, sturdy yet compact, for all my Shu Uemura blushers. Anyway here is the eye I did for IMATS. My lashes are the result of an extension (review coming up this week). Products used: ME {Read More}
Tweet Another one of the things I picked up from the US (or should I say, my friend picked up for me) is this Shu Uemura Tsumori Chisata Cat Palette. Hurrah! Waited so long for this – and am I going to use it? Hell no! But you can admire its gorgeousness with me. Altogether now, aaahhhhhhh:
