My High End Beauty Secret Lipstick Love

Hi All,

So we all know our MAC from our YSL and our NARS from our Chanel but there's another high end lipstick I can't get enough of at the moment and that is the Shu Uemura lipstick brand.

I came cross these in harrods in London about 2 years ago and they've become one of my fave high end lipsticks to purchase.



Here are the things I love about the product

1) The packaging - shallow as it is, I think this is some of the most attractive packaging on the marketing.
2) Smell - I really like the fact these lipsticks aren't scented. I love the vanillay MAC smell but find often the smell of lipsticks can put me off wearing them so love the fact this isn't scented.
3) Formula - I ADORE the formula of these lipsticks, they are glossy long wear and the colours and super super pigmented as you can see.
4) Colour Range - The colour range is literally massive.




You can buy Shu Uemura lipsticks online here  for around £19.00 and they are available in most luxury department stores.

Do you have an uncommon high end lipstick you can recommend?

  1. I think packaging is really important! I'm always more drawn to prettier packaging, so that's totally understandable.

  2. I love that packaging too! It's nice to be able to see the product before opening it. I'm just starting to try out Bite Beauty lip stuff… they're very nice, but I haven't found the perfect color for me yet.

    I can't recommend any uncommon high end lippies, but one of my favourite budget lippies is from H&M, I have been really surprised by it!

  9. Are they moisturising? I find a lot of lipsticks dry out my lips :(

  11. Interesting! I've never seen or tried Shu Uemura lipstick but it looks absolutely gorgeous, and I like that it's a bit different than the standard MAC/YSL/etc. beauty blog fare.

    Thanks for sharing!
