I Love My Shu Shu! Yazbukey for Shu Uemura!
Welcome to a brand new week! For today’s ManiMonday post, I wanted to show you a cool set of nailart that I got done last week… The colors used and the design were all inspired by the nail polish collection and artwork from the Yazbukey for Shu Uemura collection. But since I did not actually get […]
Shu Uemura Blanc : Chroma Cleansing Oil & Essence
Sometimes the littlest things make all the difference… From the moment I laid eyes on Shu Uemura’s latest skincare offerings – Shu Uemura Blanc:Chroma – I was in love! Purple clear packaging with touches of white speaks of femininity and strength. Fresh soft white floral scent envelops in true sensory pleasure. And heralding a new age […]
Lacquer Up with Shu Uemura Laque Supreme!
This morning as I was driving to work, I caught my husband staring at me out of the corner of my eye. I kept quiet just to see how long he could keep it up… as it turned out, quite long! Finally, I asked him what’s up, and he said he was just admiring how […]

Shu Uemura has always been synonymous with beautiful makeup, and it has propelled the cleansing oil into our mass consciousness. The brand has a diverse selection of skincare products that I am just starting to explore; beginning with the Tsuya Skin series, which is specially designed to address the Asian obsession with fair youthful radiance. “Beautiful makeup starts […]
Shu Uemura Lightbulb Oleo-Pact Foundation
Last Fall, Shu Uemura changed the way we viewed glow on our faces with the revolutionary Lightbulb Foundation (reviewed here). Together with its bespoke sponge, Shu Uemura had introduced into our consciousness the ideal of coverage and glow without excessive sheen. And this September, the innovative Japanese beauty brand completes the Lightbulb family with a […]
New Shu Uemura Drawing Pencils
I am always looking for good pencil liners that go on smoothly and last on my oily hooded lids. If you read my 3-part marathon discussion on the various liners I’ve tried, you’d know that I’ve been through plenty. So in order for any new pencil liner to capture my interest, it has to be […]

Last week I postulated that the beauty industry colludes on new product releases, but was told by some readers that’s not the case. Regardless, the reason for my theory, is because seemingly unrelated companies can come to market with the same innovation at the same time! I’m talking about these new lip and cheek tints, […]
