In as much as I like Shu Uemura's minimalist packaging, I don't like how flimsy the clear blush compact is. The hinge on my P Pink 30 Glow On just broke on its own and I don't know when and how that happened since it was just inside my makeup box. When I read at the Shu Uemura thread at Girltalk that there are empty compacts being sold at the Shu counter in Duty Free, I had my eyes set on it since then. I like that you can customize whatever's inside it - 4 eyeshadows, 2 eyeshadows and one glow on, or 2 glow ons. In my case, I thought of putting both P Pink 30 and M Pink 30 in that compact because I know they will look pretty together and I will no longer get scared of bringing those blushes with me because of the fear that it might get broken. So it became part of my 2010 Christmas Wishlist. Did I get it?
Of course, I did! Priced at only $8, there is no way I can let this pass. No more worries about bringing Shu blushes with me.
It's a plain shiny black compact which attracts dirt and fingerprints. That's the only thing I don't like about this compact. It has to be wiped clean every now and then.
P Pink 30 (top) and M Pink 30 (bottom) inside the compact. That looks better. I can bring these pretty blushes with me wherever I go. :)
That's one thing off my Christmas Wishlist! :P
Happy Wednesday, super awesome peeps! :)
The blushes look gorgeous, and the compact is pretty nifty too! I love Shu uemura, I think they're one of the best makeup brands out there :) I'm glad you got something off your wishlist :D
ReplyDeleteMusicalhouses, thank you. I agree Shu is one of the best. :P
ReplyDeleteThat's a really smart move, 2 fave Shu blushes in one compact! I'm really lemming over the Chanel Rose Petale blush for Christmas, your Tea Rose review really made me want it even more...he he :-)
ReplyDeleteMina, go get a Chanel blush, I'm sure you'll like it! It's worth the price tag. :P
ReplyDeletei'm loving the case! omg 2 blushes, i need me one of these, but i don't think i even own 2 shu blushes! blah! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very very pretty shade!
ReplyDeleteAmy, then you'd better get all three! Haha! :P
ReplyDeleteNikki, yeah those two are pretty indeed. :P
Yay, finally! The blush compact! Glad you finally got your hands on this. :)
