shu uemura’s haute street Autumn 2015 colour collection is an explosion of colour in a season of neutrals. The Japanese artistry brand proves that vibrant shades of turquoise, lime and fuchsia look good any season when placed carefully. That was what made Mr. Shu Uemura so exceptional in Hollywood. His technique was so exact and precise, he was able to use wild colour in such a controlled manner. The results were breathtaking.
You’ll see the perfect illustration of this exacting technique in the model image for the fall collection. She’s wearing pink, yellow and turquoise eyeshadow at once but it is such a small amount, it looks perfectly tasteful. Our pro makeup artist friend Nina Westbury always says that anyone can wear colour. It is just how you place it and how much you use.
Here are the star products of the collection. These are the items I think that really stand out.
haute street eyeshadow palette in cool x chic
haute street eyeshadow palette in warm x vibrant
rouge unlimited lipstick in city neon
rouge unlimited lipstick in brick burgundy
dual-ended eye colour pencil in cool x chic
dual-ended eye colour pencil in warm x vibrant
tint in gelato lip colour in urban coral
The giveaway: I gave away this shu uemura haute street collection to one lucky reader. I asked readers to tell me their thoughts about this collection in a blog post comment below. I drew one name at random. Congrats Ophelia C! Hope you enjoy your shu!!

September 10, 2015 at 11:17 pmThese fun bright colors are totally my style. I am in love with the 2 dual ended eye liners. I love using bright colors as a focal point with my under eye liner. And love the shimmer in the shadows. Shiney but not too glittery. @Freebies4Trini

September 10, 2015 at 9:06 pmThis would be perfect for my wife. She loves this! This would make a perfect holiday gift, or even a just because gift. Just because she deserves it and she is the best wife I could ever ask for.

September 10, 2015 at 6:52 pmI tend to wear more subdued eye shadow but there are some there that I would wear however I have a niece who loves to experiment with makeup so I would give her the eyeshadow and dual end pencils for sure if I won it since she would get more use out of it. I think it is a stunning collection, vibrant yet very wearable. @Shellbran3

September 10, 2015 at 6:38 pmI absolutely love this collection, very young, bright, colourful and exciting. It seems very different for an AW release, but so stunning and different! The eye pencils are gorgeous, and the eye shadows look so vibrant and fresh, I love it all!
