Reader Review of the Day: Shu Uemura Fiber Xtension Lengthening Mascara
I really like fiber mascaras, because they don't smudge and come off so nicely, so I was interested to see what people would have to say about Shu Uemura Fiber Xtension Lengthening Mascara ($23). Reader Georgia S, though, isn't so much, and she has some observations about the product's hypoallergenic claims, too, saying:
This might be a great product if you don't have sensitive eyes, or if you don't wear contact lenses like I do. I have another Shu mascara that I adore, but this is just a mess on me.
Black Lips Have Another Moment, Thanks to Twilight
Last year, beauty brands hoped that black lips would be big. Unless I missed out on a convention of Bauhaus fans, the sooty-kiss look wasn't an enormous success — going dark just didn't work for most women. Will this season be different?
Tsumori Chisato Designs a Princely Collection For Shu Uemura
Back in high school, Mademoiselle Wood made it a requirement that we all read Le Petit Prince in French — a daunting task at the time. But I soon I became wrapped up in the dreamlike, surprisingly profound, world of this little prince and his similarly unpredictable companions.
Fast-forward to the present day, and I'm captivated by The Little Prince once again, as Japanese designer Tsumori Chisato is set to launch her own adaptation of the classic novella in collaboration with Shu Uemura.
The Look For Less: Fun Feathered Lashes
False eyelashes are a lot of fun, especially when you have the opportunity to play around with unusual and wild styles. Sometimes, wacky lashes are bold and brash, but other times, they're artistic and fantastic. Shu Uemura's Fleur-Ever lashes fit firmly into the latter category.
Reader Review of the Day: Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler
When it comes to eyelash curlers, the Shu Uemura brand is considered the crème de la crème of eyelash curlers. Recently, reader Littlemzfit gave the Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler ($19) a try. Perhaps you've thought about purchasing one of these coveted beauty tools, but wondered if it's worth it.
Even Fish-Face Is Mildly Alluring With This Gloss
This lip gloss has me questioning my commitment to Sparkle Motion. Shu Uemura Vinyl Unlimited ($20) is a rare breed of shimmer- and glitter-free lip gloss. Put simply, Vinyl Unlimited is to lip gloss as lucite heels are to footwear: Unashamedly, unavoidably sexy.
Get Britney's Lipstick Look From Madonna's Tour
Britney Jean Spears is less than a month away from her birthday, and it looks like 27 might be her year. She has a new album, a new perfume, and judging by her appearance with Madonna last night, she's looking so much healthier and happier.
Brit showed off her smile by wearing a highly flattering lipstick shade.
The Look For Less: Madonna's "Diamond" False Lashes
Remember Madonna's famous mink-and-diamond lashes from a few years ago? Her makeup artist, Gina Brooke, made them by hand; they proved to be so popular that she developed a Madonna-inspired set ($25) for Shu Uemura. For Halloween or just a glam night on the town, they're super-slick.
Exclusive! Get Madonna's Sticky and Sweet Tour Makeup Look
Love her or hate her — and if you're like me, it's "love her" all the way — Madonna remains at the top of her game. And after dozens of distinctive looks throughout the years, she continues to set trends on her Sticky and Sweet tour. The North American leg kicks off this weekend, so as a little preview of what's to come, I've scored the makeup details from her longtime makeup artist, Shu Uemura Artistic Director Gina Brooke.
Shu Uemura Gets Instinctive For Fall
While I was getting my lashes on at Shu Uemura, another Sugar girl was experiencing a new look of her own. Makeup artist Nicky Posley worked his magic, and presented us with the 2008 Fall Mode Collection called Instinct. "This collection is all about femininity, sensuality, and deep rich color," he said.
