shu uemura blanc:chroma
Saturday, May 30, 2015
#Throwback It literally tok me so much time to get this
done as I’m trying out the product. As for all skin care products to achieve
skin radiance may take up to three months to get them done; and I’m here, ready
to share with you my thoughts on the products that I’ve reviewed for the past
few weeks.
Beautiful bright skin is only achieved by eliminating all chroma imperfections on top of dark spots.” -shu uemura international artistic director, Uchiide
shu uemura has unlocked the secret to beautiful and transparent skin for a new era in whitening. All-new blanc:chroma enables what women desire—a healthy,
bright complexion with natural
radiance, free of chroma imperfections.
blanc:chroma adopts a truly innovative approach to brightening, one born of expertise in Asian skin and artist insight to fight overall skin tone irregularities with a carefully selected choice of powerful ingredients. blanc:chroma goes beyond conventional whitening with a unique combination of cleansing oil and essence to not only purify skin, but also treat it.
What are
the 4 chromas?
shu uemura has identified 4 face tone irregularities
which impact on the makeup finish—brown,
red, yellow and green. For a global beautiful skin tone that maximises the
finish of makeup, these colour irregularities must be addressed.
brown— Dark spots are the most intense chroma
and the main obstacle to creating an even makeup finish.
red—
Beautiful skin has to be healthy
and rosy, but undesired redness caused by inflammation, acne and other factors, can also affect the makeup
finish.
yellow— Yellow dullness also prevents a
gorgeous, rosy finish. One reason for the yellowish skin tone is caused by formation of lipoperoxides, along
with and aging.
green—Unhealthy skin can show as a greenish or
pale tone in the complexion, due to lower rates of microcirculation.
So what’s mine? RED. I have a pinkish skin tone, however
my skin tends to appear some unpleasent redness and it really affects my
make-up. Usually I’m using yellow-toned foundation to conceal them, which I
think it’s not helpful enough.
blanc:chroma chroma4 clarifying essence
It is a new powerful brightening
active “4D Complex” goes beyond dark spots to fight against 4 chroma
imperfections for luminous, transparent skin.

What do I think? Indeed, using it for only 4 weeks, it
shows skin clarity on my uneven skin tone – not too much to be seen but however
it works fine. The texture of the essence it light and fast-absorbed and it
doesn’t make you think that’s a “fussy step to go thru with it” before applying
moisturiser.
*tips: kindly apply a generous amount of hydrating-based
moisturiser to ensure your skin hydrating level works fine for this product to
achieve better skin clarity.

Well, I’ve been using it’s POREfinist cleansing oil
since back then. It’s quite a new experience for me to try out something that
which I temporary not touching it on my skin – radiance & whitening. Since
it’s here, why not? For those who are familiar with cleansing oil, there’s no
special / extra step for this while cleansing your skin.
First attempt, my skin was one-tone brighter than
usual and I believe it helps to remove free radicals, oxidised make-ups. Plus,
a lil extra credit for exfoliation as the clay extract purifies my skin to
become smoother.
So here’s my personal thoughts on shu uemura

boutiques to find out more.
