The Background Story
I first heard of Shu Uemura (SU) while watching makeup
tutorial videos on Youtube. A majority of the beauty gurus were reviewing
and comparing the SU eyelash curlers and that sparked an interest for me. Then
a few months later a friend told me that SU was readily available at the David
Jones beauty section. I was stoked and went along to see her splurge on her
products. I wasn’t yet sold on his eye shadows as I wanted to try them out and
see swatches. And true to my nature, I did a little research on SU both as a
person and a brand. He was big on healthy skin and non-harming products for his
customers' skin. This became the underlying aspect of his cosmetics. He
also believed in enhancing a subject's natural beauty, not artificially
creating it using cosmetic products. I say, kudos to Mr Uemura!
