Makeup Artist Shu Uemura, 79
Way Bandy, Kevin Aucoin, Shu Uemura.
Legends of cosmetic fashion and artistry—
We can’t even fathom the passing of top Japanese artist–Shu Uemura.
His wonderfully pigmented product line and TOKYO LASH BAR (think of fake eyelashes, but then add catwalk flair and unexpected elements of feathers and fur) put him on the map as an innovator of colour and style.
My make up brushes are at half mast. He will be missed.

Fashion Insomniac Says:
Shu Uemura was a giant in the field. He used color so creatively and his line is of the highest quality. His makeup brushes are legendary. Rest in peace, Mr. Uemura.
