In collaboration with Tokyo fashion designer Tsumori Chisato, shu uemura presents the new Holiday 2009 Collection: Wish Upon a Star.

This limited-edition exclusive collection features the designer’s favorite Japanese icons “twinkle star” and “lucky cat” to add a playful spirit throughout the collection.

The highlight of this collection is the Tsumori Chisato Limited-Edition Planet Cat Couture Palette with three eye shadows:

• Black Glitz
• Shiny Silver
• Copper

1 cream eyeliner (Black Purple), 1 cream highlighter (Gold Iridescent), 1 blush (Apricot Pink), and 2 dual-ended applicators (wide tip/narrow tip and cheek brush/liner brush) round out the palette with everything you need to create a gorgeous holiday look.

In addition to the palette, I’m dying to get my hands on this gorgeous Dual-Color Highlighter in Golden Snow. In my opinion, nothing dresses up the face more than the sheer glow of highlighter. I can’t wait to try this!

The Tsumori Chisato “Wish Upon a Star” Holiday 2009 Collection for shu uemura is currently available online at shuuemura-usa.com.

As the holiday makeup collections make their way to makeup counters across the nation, the Bobbi Brown Chrome Palette from the Holiday 2009 Chrome Collection is the star item to watch out for.

As the morning sun hit my desk earlier today, I was totally mesmerized by my nail polish.

NARS Rouge Andalou (from the NARS Holiday 2009 collection) is a candy apple red that’s so shimmery, I can’t take my eyes off my nails. I painted my nails on Friday—THREE WHOLE DAYS ago—and they still look perfect!

Rouge Andalou is a warm red with golden undertones and tons of shimmer—a gorgeous candy apple red for a season of festivities.

NARS Rouge Andalou is currently available online at NARSCosmetics.com for $16.
