Shu Uemura Drawing Pencils

My favorite pencil

I am a complete black eyeliner girl. I have tried all different pencils. This is by far the best one I have tried so far. It doesn't smudge or run. It is a true matte black color and stays put all day. It glides on gently and doesn't pull at my skin. I highly recommend this pencil. It comes in other oolors and metallic finishes as well.

Shu Uemura High Performance Balancing Cleansing Oil Fresh

Very Effective Cleanser

With my combination skin and slightly oily T-zone, the idea of using an oil on my face would have made me fear pimple city. This cleansing oil is very different from other cleansers that I have used. It leaves my skin very clean and soft. It removes all my makeup including my mascara. I apply this all over a dry face so that it can break down my makeup and any oil and dirt from the day. Then i wet my fingers and massage my face. By adding water this oil turns into a milky texture. Then I just rinse off. The result is a soft, smooth very clean face. The bottle is 450ml and will last a very long time. This cleanser is gentle enough that I think any skin type can use it and effective enough to remove all traces of makeup. I highly recommend this cleanser.
