Shu Uemura has collaborated for the second time with Japanese photographer Mika Ninagawa on a limited edition Sakura Collection 2011.
Celebrate the ephemeral joy of spring sakura blossoms with the vivid images created by world-renowned photographer and film maker Mika Ninagawa.
"My favorite flower is the sakura. Japanese is truly beautiful. During the sakura season,
my heart beats faster with excitement and I can't stop myself from going out. I adore
sakura. I think the most beautiful thing about sakura is the moment it falls.
Japanese people including myself, are deeply moved by how they blossom
fleetingly, then their beautiful petals scatter gracefully."
Mika Ninagawa
ShuUemura celebrates the one-year anniversary of its wildly popular and innovative UV under base mousse by reuniting with Mika Ninagawa for a collaboration on special packaging and an exclusive short film.
Shu Uemura UV under base mousse is as light as air.

her vivid, eye-popping photography of flora and fauna is instantly identifiable.

approach to expressing her unmistakable "pop and sweet wonderland" style.

Shoppingera, does your makeup change along with the seasons?
Anyone who has tried Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil will agree that it is one of the best makeup removers in the market. It can soften the toughest mascaras and melt the stickiest foundations.
The late Mr. Shu Uemura made history by introducing the first oil-based cleanser to Japan. The Cleansing Oil is the makeup brand's start product. You can remove makeup and skin impurities in one single step!
Shu Uemura has introduced another revolutionary product: Shu Uemura Pure:Nu Gentle Cleansing Oil-In-Gel. It's a "2-in-1" cleanser for visible skin renewal.

The catch:
Shu Uemura Pure:Nu Gentle Cleansing Oil-In-Gel will not be available till end of February. However, I was able to get a sample of the product and I loved it! I have sensitive and dry skin so this makeup remover suits me. I love the giant Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil bottle I have at home, but this new cleansing gel is convenient for traveling.
I recommend this product to eco lovers (KC, you'll love this product!) and those with very sensitive skin.
Surprise! I would like one of my amazing readers to try out this product. Tune into my blog as I will be giving away Shu Uemura Pure:Nu Gentle Cleansing Oil-In-Gel this coming February!
Shoppingera, what do you look for in a makeup remover?
According to my makeup artist friends, colorful makeup makes you look younger.
In other words, ka-age.
But before you start hoarding the colors of the rainbow at your favorite makeup counter, keep in mind that "colorful" doesn't mean shocking.
In other words, matrona.
Peg: Think of a teenager's face (with good skin) — flawless skin, rosy cheeks, slightly thick eyebrows, and the look of just-been-bitten lips.
Translation:
Flawless skin = Concealer + Foundation
Rosy cheeks = Pinkish or peach-colored blush
Slightly thick eyebrows = Well-groomed brows using brow pencil/powder
Just-been-bitten lips = Pinkish red lipstick (Pink on the outer part of the lips and redish hue on center, blended)
Aya Takano x Shu Uemura Abracadabra Fantasy Collection
Aya Takano is a Japanesepop artist associated with the Superflat movement. Influenced by both manga and American Science Fiction, her art typically depicts large-eyed female heroines, often partially or completely nude.
Teenagers also love to experiment on colors. Keep your makeup fun by using colorful eyeshadows on the lids like greens, pinks, yellows, and corals. If you choose neutral tones as eyeshadows, wear bright-colored lipsticks like fuchsia and blood-orange to accentuate your look.
Remember that moderation is key to achieve the ka-age look.

If you're confused on what colors exactly, Aya Takano x Shu Uemura Collection will enlighten you.
It's a complete makeup palette of wearable colors in a cute and young-looking packaging — very ka-age.
