How to spend it


Translucent coverage

No one likes a caked-on complexion. New on Shu Uemura counters is the White Recovery EX+ Whitening Powder Foundation (RM130) that offers a 3-dimensional translucence. While high coverage foundations have often been associated with flat and pasty complexion, Whitening Powder Foundation breaks that myth with lustrous powders and radiance pearls, giving radiance to the skin while covering imperfections. Enriched with Prune and Sakura Leaf Extract with Vitamin C Derivative, the foundation does not only have whitening properties, it is also formulated with SPF 25 PA++ to help shield the skin from our harsh sun.
