I first saw the ad to these fabulous looking lipsticks a few months ago, and until now they are still very popular.

Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited has 65 shades with 9 artist shades, teaching us that the key is to mix and match your colors. These lipsticks are advanced technology with high pigments that will moisturize the lips (up to eight hours) and present endless combinations of colors.

You might see unusual colors such as purple, white, green sold separately, which means you can blend as many color combinations possible. It’s like painting on your lips, you can try and see which colors suit you best and create your own personal look.

One good lipstick might be a lifetime investment, but now I think you might need more than two shades at once.

The next shade will darken, brighten, or add vibrance to the basic color. Since I better stick with matte shades rather than glossy ones, I adore these Shu Uemura collections.

My favorite is the palest pink possible, but playing with layers of orange and reds can be fun indeed. You can even buy three shades, for instance, mix white and pink together for a humble lip look – white and red for a more cheerful occasion – or red alone for a bold evening party.

The other extra perk is that packaging is elegant yet subtle, a clear tube casing. Now you can mix and match clothes as well as lipsticks! (VSPS/JKT/WE07)
