Hello Shu Uemura fans!

Shu Uemura Holiday Collection by Karl Lagerfeld
This post is way overdue, but as some of you may know, I’ve had health issues that I had to deal with the last few weeks. My world pretty much stopped because of it. Anyway, I have two great news for you!
Great news no. 1: After a nail biting experience of waiting on the results of my tests, I’m happy to report that my mammogram and biopsies results are benign, “not remarkable”, and non-cancerous! Thank you, Lord! Thanks for all your prayers too!
Great news no. 2: Ever since the launch of Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura collection, makeup junkies around the world pretty much wiped out the shelves of Shu Uemura stores. The collection sold out faster than you can say “Mon Shu!”

If you live in Manila, you are in luck — Shu Uemura just replenished their shelves with new stocks! Daliiiiiiii!!!
I’ve been a Shu Uemura fan since day one. So, don’t take it against me that I have the (almost complete) collection of Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura. LOL
Thank you Shu Uemura!

ssssssss
Say hello to Mon Shu!

Aminin n’yo, kamukha ko si Mon Shu! Red contact lens na lang, twins na kami! Haha!
Even Mon Shu’s style is so me!
Ako na ang inspiration ni Karl!
Eyelash curler ni Karl
Day to night time palette = 24/7 BONGGA!
The secret to not so intense smoky eyes is aubergine eyeliner
Black beauty at your fingertips
Beautiful “brochas”
Eto na ang bagong lipschook ng bayan!

Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura lipstick in “Luxe Burgundy”
I love the Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura lipstick in “Luxe Burgundy”, I used it during the Sofitel’s Spiral Gala event.
Tip: Use a lip liner with this lipstick to avoid smudging.

Cheers to beauty!

The evening was not only an introduction to Shu Uemura’s holiday collection, it was also the celebration of two milestones, shu uemura’s 10th year in the Philippine beauty scene and a toast by Charisse Hernandez-Chua, General Manager of L’Oreal Luxe for the transition of one great and well-loved leader of L’Oreal Philippines to another—from the outgoing Managing Director, Mr. Luc-Olivier Marquet (in gray suit) to his successor, Mr. Rowel Vijandre (in red tie).

My Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura Picks:
If you to choose only one Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura product to buy, I suggest you get one of their palettes — it’s value for your money and the packaging looks fab inside your makeup kit!
Limited edition or not, this duo is a must!

Cleansing Oil and UV Underbase Mousse
For the “lashey” lovers, it’s Shu Uemura or bust!
Uhm… Why don’t I have this??? This would be perfect for my budoir!

The Karl Lagerfeld x Shu Uemura limited edition makeup box is the bomb! Cute and cool at the same time!
