Reuters reported some sad news today – legendary makeup artist Shu Uemura passed away on December 29 from pneumonia.
I’m bummed as I just discovered his makeup line and have quickly fallen in love with it.
See ya at the crossroads, Shu. You will be missed.
Oh shoot. I just learned about Shu Uemura from you and now he’s gone.
I know, it’s a bummer LaurieT. I really like the line, so I wonder what L’Oreal is going to do next.
Bummer 🙁
The make-up line is gorgeous
Oh no. 🙁 Only 79.
Thanks for reporting.
Hi Joanna,
Sad, huh? Have you sing the spring stuff? It makes my heart sing, so pretty.
You’re welcome Rowena. I’m bummed too.
Very sad. I have never used his products, but I will check them out!
Hi AppleDiva,
Don’t say I didn’t warn you, but I think that you would fall in love with the eyeshadows.
Can you recommend must have shades from Shu Uemura? FYI, I like shimmer. 🙂
This is surely a huge lost for the entire beauty community because Shu Uemura was such a creative genius.

Really sad news 🙁
I love his products and the was he uses colour- a true make-up artist.
If you have to try something from Shu Uemura, its got to be the Lash curlers and the Glow-On blushes.
R.I.P Shu, what a loss, but a massive thanks for what you’ve done for make-up !
