Shu Uemura Mascara Length and Waterproof Review

The verdict: I absolutely love it!

It really doesn't disappoint and, true to its name, visibly lengthens my lashes. The brush of the applicator isn't much wider than the wand making it very easy to use especially if you have small, Chinita eyes like mine. There's also little to no flaking and clumping unlike the other brands I've tried.

Before buying the product, my friend assured me that it is waterproof. She went on to tell me that she even wore the mascara while swimming and yet, her eyes remained smudge-free. I wanted to find out if what she said had any truth in it so I decided to test it myself. I put on some mascara before taking a shower and lo and behold, it really didn't smudge.

I normally apply one coat for everyday use. You may also apply 3-4 coats for a more dramatic effect. Best to use the Shu eyelash curler before applying the mascara.

Shu Uemura Mascara Length and Waterproof retails at P1,700 and you may buy them at all Shu Uemura stores.

Shu is located at the 2nd floor of the Rockwell Powerplant Mall.

Shu Uemura Fever

In a previous post, I mentioned that I wanted to buy two more products from Shu--their award-winning eyelash curler and a mascara. Since they had a one-day sale earlier today at the Shu Uemura Rockwell branch and because of the constant nagging of a friend :), I decided to drop by and buy those two things on my To-Buy list.

Award-winning Eyelash Curler 

Length and Waterproof Jet Black Mascara

I know it somewhat sounds funny that the eyelash curler is described as "award-winning", however, after doing some research, it seems that this curler really does a great job. It's even one of Catherine Zeta-Jones's favorite beauty products.

Will post more after I try them on. 

Shu Me

Went to an event last week and was fortunate enough to have had one of the Shu Uemura Rockwell artists do my makeup. I really liked the lipstick she used on me so I decided to go back a few days later and purchase it.

Here is my new baby.

Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited WN 275

I was quite content with the Clinique I've been using but I must say that this one is much nicer. Very smooth application, has a lovely shine that's not too glossy, feels light and does not dry my lips. It is a bit pricey at P1,350 but then I always believe that one should not scrimp when it comes to makeup.

 Next Shu items on my To-Buy list: ultimate expression mascara and their eyelash curler.
