Shu Uemura - Spring 2013 make-up: palette analysis

Was bored so I went on www.wgsn.com to have a wee look at stuff, then I came across this page about Shu Uemura. I'm not a fan of Shu Uemura, never used their stuff, but I've heard of the brand. I don't really wear make-up.
Anyways. WOW!! Everything looks sooooo pretty!!  So I have decided to blog about it.

"Dreams and flowers are the inspiration behind Shu Uemura's spring 2013 colour collection, where a poetic palette of floral pastels dominates. "
Shu Uemura Dream 30th Anniversary Collection For Spring 2013

Really like this picture. Looks really nice. I like that theres a bright light on the left. And I like the shading of the purple background.

The Look
Yuji Asano, chief international make-up artist for Shu Uemura, has created a colourful beauty look this season, with chalky pastel blue, bright yellow and orange on the eyes teamed with a soft pink lip.

The colours
Colours are varied but all are influenced by nature. Palettes consist of chalky pastels and brights, while coral, orange and pink are key for lip and cheek products

    I really really really really like the "Shu Uemura Unmask Palette Blue". Colours look really pretty! Love the lilac and blue colours. But the Greens on "Shu Uemura Unmask Palette Green" looks really nice as well.  But if to buy, I'm probably going to buy "Shu Uemura Unmask Palette Pink", colours more natural, and would be more easy for me to wear everyday.

    This might be something I would be interested in buying. I don't know why, I like orangey-reddy kinda colour for lipsticks. And the lipstick looks really cute hehe XP. The pink is a nice colour, don't think it would be something I want to buy though.

    These eyelashes look so nice!  But I hate feathers. And I probably hate it to see it in person. But they look so cute in the picture!!!
