Shu Uemura and Tsumori Chisato

This gorgeous collaboration between whimsical designer Tsumori Chisato and Shu Uemura doesn’t actually go on counter til November, but its the kind of ingenious leap that can – and should – be made to combine fashion and make up. Based loosely on the story of The Little Prince, the joy is in the kooky prints that instantly transform it into a very special collection. I wish more cosmetic companies would get creative and do likewise – how many more plain pans does the world need? While I’m on the subject, the yellow and turquoise liners from the autumn Primitribe collection (top pic) are pretty amazing, too.
