shu uemura collector eye shadow palette giveaway!
Japanese artistry makeup brand shu uemura is one of my favourite beauty brands. Not only does it offer excellent quality, but it excels with its creative collaborations and shade choices. This brand thinks outside the box with each new launch which is why I feature it so often on Cityline. If you’ve ever had the opportunity to watch a shu makeup artist from Japan apply makeup you’ll know how precise the placement of colour is. These artists approach makeup like a fine artist does working on a portrait or oil painting. It is remarkable to watch.
One of my favourite shu collaborations was with Japanese athletic brand Onitsuka Tiger, known for its volleyball footwear. It was bold, energetic and youthful.
“When this collaboration was started, what came up in my mind is the healthy and active women wearing bright colour makeup back in the 1980s, reflecting the time of the fitness boom,” explains Uchiide, Shu Uemura International Artistic Director. “It was the proposal of the founder Mr. shu uemura’s beauty look. I feel that beyond the limit looks similar in its expression, and its spirit is to challenge the limits and elevate its height, and to cheer the ones who challenge to elevate their beauty. Bold-coloured makeup inspired by Onitsuka Tiger’s spirits and stripes will certainly bring your beauty to new heights.”
A Collector Eye Palette with Energy and Spirit: Beyond the Limit
This special shu uemura eye palette featured eight carefully curated shades to help you create daring and fashionable summer looks that go beyond your imagination. You’ll notice that a pop of indigo blue and summer orange is balanced with softer neutral shades. There is a mix of glitter, pearl and matte textures to play with. It comes in a sleek zip compact decorated with the Tiger racing stripes.
THE GIVEAWAY: I gave away a shu uemura x Onitsuka Tiger Eye Palette in “Beyond the Limit” to one lucky reader. To enter, I asked readers to tell me in a blog comment below how they would rate this palette on a scale of 1 to 10. Louisa W from the UK told me and I drew her name from all entries. Congrats Louisa!

June 16, 2021 at 4:22 pmI absolutely worship the brand shu emera!! I love their makeup, AND their haircare is AHmazing! This limited edition “beyond the limit” collector eye shadow palette by shu emera is a 10+! I love how bold they went with the design and colors. I love that it has roots in the fitness community. I love the spirit of this collection! Shows an enormous amount of pride and joy, and that’s what makeup is! It’s how we can express ourselves. I think it’s fun to play around with different textures and colors and just see what combinations work. I think the only color I’d have trouble wearing would be that beautiful, bold blue. But I’m sure if you gave me enough time, I’d find a way to rock it! Oh, like holidays and football games! Or just for the fun of it! After the year and a half we’ve all endured, some happy colors might do us all some good! Love, love, LOVE shu emera and love this brilliant palette! Thanks so much, Dave, for another incredible giveaway! I so hope you’re doing well and enjoying the summer! It’s already 100 degrees here with the heat index!! Gonna be a hot summer for sure! Sending you TONS of hugs and even more love!! xoxo Jamie

June 16, 2021 at 3:25 pmI rate this palette a 9/10, loving the generous pan size, the bold pops of color and the very cool and convenient zip up packaging. The transition shades carry the weight of their bold palette, just in my very personal opinion, I would have liked to have seen some more bold shades in the palette, which is the reason I give it 9 out of 10.
Here from Twitter @takeashotgirl99 sending tons of love and light!!
