If you haven't seen Pulp Fiction (btw, you should see it), you would at least have seen its theatrical poster featuring Uma Thurman with a fringe bob hair cut with a cigarette in hand.  Her character in the movie, Mrs. Mia Wallace was so cool and so bad a$$.  This year marked the 20th anniversary, so  Urban Decay has released a whole collection to commemorate this occasion.  Of course, the entire collection is surrounding Mrs. Mia Wallace, including the Pulp Fiction Palette.

Last month I had the chance to go to the Shu Uemura SS2014 Press Event to learn and explore about their upcoming collection, and to witness the magical makeup techniques of Shu Uemura's Global Creative Director—Kakuyasu Uchiide.

Remember when we all fell head over heels for the Revlon by Marchesa Nail Art 3D Jewel Appliqués?  This dream collaboration has done it again and this time for something that could last more permanently, beauty tools! I got a chance to preview some of the items before the holidays at Tips Nail Bar (that was recently moved and the new location was fabulous!). There were cookies, hors d'oeuvres, nail polishes, manicures, sketch artist, and of course, the Revlon by Marchesa Beauty Tools

This Spring, Shu Uemura is bringing us the word of mystery and enchantment from Japanese renowned photographer and film director Mika Ninagawa.  This is the third collaboration Shu Uemura has had with Mika Ninagawa and it will be available in April 2014 at Hudson's Bay & selected Sephora stores in Canada..  Mika has created four exclusive visuals –Curiosity, Forbidden Fruits, Singing Forest, & Melting Sweet Dream–as the packaging for some of the cult favourite products as well as limited edition shades.
"To me, make-up is a way to open the door to an unknown world, a world filled with excitement. The magic that takes you from your regular life to an unknown new world and the sense of adventure that accompanies this journey are what I wanted to express through this collaboration." — Mika Ninagawa

As always, the Shu Uemura collaboration always brings out fun packaging and incredible lashes.  This time around, they are also releasing a new line of lip & cheek stain called Tint in Gelato.  It is of a smooth creamy texture that will gives a nice stain (that is still on my hand after swatching it during lunch).  This whole new line of products is definitely a must have for this collection, but more on that later.  If you're a fan of Mika Ninagawa's art, you may want to stock up some of your favourite Shu products in this collection.

Until next time,
