Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Crystal Shine

Shu Uemura has released their newest thing for your lips, Rouge Unlimited Crystal Shine makes it’s debut with 17 lip colors with professional grade hyper pigment.  The formula has water-capturing molecules that will hydrate your lips while shining them up with light-reflective pearls.  

Here are some tips from shu uemura’s Principal Makeup Artist, Jason Hoffman… 

-For a light glossy stain, apply directly from the tube.
-If you want a slightly heavier shine, use a brush to apply. The brush will pick up more product and blend it evenly on the lips.
-For more color depth and long lasting wear, pair the crystal shine with a pencil.  Try to use a pencil that is similar in color and remember to fill in the lips, avoiding the outline left alone when the shine wears off.
-As with all of our lipsticks, crystal shine is great for eyes and cheeks.  Use a synthetic foundation brush and apply on the apples. (the colors look very fresh and the shimmer offers a beautiful sheen)
-For the eyes, use a synthetic concealer brush. Beiges and browns will be the easiest to wear on the eyes as reds and oranges can often make you look tired.
-Every woman should own the shade WH (white) 002S.  It is so versatile! It can be used alone for a light glossy finish or layered over ANY lip color.  It will lighten the color and give it a hint of pink shimmer.
-The shade BG (beige) 901S is also a must have for anyone who likes wear a smoky eye.  It is the perfect beige that compliments browns, purples, greens, blues and black.

All of those tips are very do-able, a big thanks to Mr. H and Shu Uemura for passing this on.  Click on over to the Rouge Unlimited Crystal Shine site to purchase a lippy.  If you’d like to test in person visit the Uemura boutiques in fab cities like: San Francisco, Boston and Costa Mesa or select Neiman Marcus stores, Saks, Barney’s NY, Chicago and 90210.
