The holiday collection from Shu Uemura was made in conjunction with film maker Wong Kar Wei. "For the holiday 2011 season, Shu Uemura comes together with internationally renowned film director Wong Kar Wei. Shu Uemura introduces a holiday rich in emotions and atmosphere, with beautiful package decoration inspired by Wong Kar Wei's special short film for Shu Uemura 'Mask'. Indulge in sensuous emotions, experience the essence of beauty, and boldly express your own passion this 2011 holiday season." This collection contains mostly single products with two sets of nail polish shades and I am looking forward to seeing if this collection is as great as I read that it would be.
The last of the holiday collections for 2011...

Quad Custom Case Black - For 4 Eye Shadow refills or 2 Glow On blush refills or 2 Eye Shadow refills and 1 Glow On Blush refill. Shu Uemura's pursuit of perfection takes form in this innovative palette case. The jet black palette has a rich, lacquered finish, but the lid and base of both have slightly different tones, this color scheme is inspired by the harmony of the "wa", or traditional Japanese style art. An eco-concept, seeking a design without glue, plastic frames or other elements that may end up in a landfill. Shu Uemura's refill palette is like a game, with one small movement you can change your eye shadow selection to match your every desire.
Glittery Mascara - Sparkling glitter creates a mysterious golden veil and a hologram reflection on your eye lashes. Use as a topcoat over mascara for maximum glamour, or use alone for subtle, sparkling finish to make your heart dance.
- Glorious Masquerade - golden glitter
Jeweled Love Accent False Eye Lashes - Enhance your feminity with these partial eye lashes to cast a tender and alluring gaze. Lashes blended with fluttery, classical bordeaux feathers to create a soft, gorgeous look. Decorated with gold crystals, it is perfect for a holiday celebration.
Dance in Glitter Premium Edition False Eye Lashes - Raceful and luscious eye for special nights. Dancing in a shower of shining glitter, entice all those around you with these delicate, ravishing lashes.
This is the most unique collection that I have seen this season and since this is the last one, I know that it won't be topped at all. Actually the look created by this collection seemed to inspire what Cosmopolitan stated was the "perfect" look for getting dressed up on New Year's Eve. The glittering false lashes and glitter polish are perfect for getting very dressed up and celebrating. The eye lashes are too out there for me to pull off but I do like the glittering blue nail polish set that it is used on the model. That set would be my favorite piece of the collection and I am very tempted to order it from Japan.
My other favorite pieces are the Rouge Luster lip shade, I have heard great remarks about Shu Uemura's lipstick shades and I really want to try one out. I also love the eye shadows from this company so I want to order a few shades from this collection: I want the silver, gold, and lavender shades.
I love this collection and I am glad that many of the products are still in stock so that I can order a few. Holiday is always fun but I must say that I can't wait for the spring collections to begin!
