Shu Uemura Eyelash Curlers (£20)
These beauties were a cheeky duty free airport purchase recently, and if you don't already own them, I'm sure the first question on your lips will be, "Are they worth it?".
The answer is a big fat YES!
I have had Shu Uemura Eyelash Curlers on my beauty wishlist for years, and of course the price always put me off. In the back of my mind was always a little voice telling me that I simply didn't need to pay £20 for something that I can easily pick up an equivalent of for less than a fiver. All eyelash curlers are the same right?
Wrong. Oh, so, so, wrong.
There's a reason why so many beauty gurus rave about these and simply put, they are just the best eyelash curlers, ever. They don't pinch (you might think your budget ones are fine, but after trying these, you'll understand the pinching thing), the design of the handle just makes them very steady to hold, and most importantly, they curl your lashes like they've never been curled before. On top of this, the curl somehow STAYS PUT too. Genius stuff.
So the next time your budget eyelash curlers break (it was this reason couple with the fact I was in an airport at the time and could get these tax free, that definitely sealed the deal for me), consider investing in a pair of Shu Uemura Eyelash Curlers, especially if you'll use them everyday like I do. I'm hoping that these will last forever!
I also spotted on Tracy's blog that you can now get these in limited edition 24k gold, how luxe is that?!
If you have these, do you think they live up to the hype? If you don't have them, are they on your wishlist?
I have wanted these for the longest time! I think this post has pushed me over the top - definitely purchasing these as soon I can! Great review, dear! :)
ReplyDeleteLet me know what you think if you get them! :)
DeleteI've wanted these for so long now! They sound amazing but i just cant justify them because i already have MAC ones which are quite good. I might as well just buy them now though, i know i'll cave in eventually ha x
ReplyDeleteI've heard the MAC ones are a pretty good alternative! x
DeleteI just wish these weren't so expensive :( plus, I use some really cheap ones for £3 and they work wonders for me so I can't imagine getting rid of them any time soon haha! I would love to try them though!xo
ReplyDeleteI know, the price put me off for YEARS! :( x
DeleteI love these, they've completely changed the way I feel about my eyes and lashes!x
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly how I felt! x
DeleteI got it on buyapowa few months ago and I couldn't believe the difference it makes! So glad I got it... I wasn't even using curlers regularly before but now I use my shu uemura everytime I do my make up. Quality!! xx
ReplyDeleteI was amazed by the difference too, definitely quality stuff! xx
DeleteI have these and totally agree, well worth the money! I haven't found any cheaper eyelash curlers that are better than these. You've reminded me I need some new rubber pads though!
ReplyDeleteAlso I just noticed my blog is on your daily reads list :-D :-D yay!!!
xx
I'm glad you love them as much as I do! Love reading your blog, your reviews are great :) xx
Deletei need a new eye lash curler
ReplyDeleteTry these ;)
DeleteI've used mine for year! Totally worth it! I have the gold one now-makes me feel fancy! ;)
ReplyDeleteThose gold ones are super fancy!
DeleteGlad that they live up to the hype for you! It was a toss up between Shu and Shiseido for me, I picked the latter mainly because I'd read reviews saying they were quite similar and Shiseido was slightly cheaper. But I'd be interested to try these sometime in the near future :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about the Shiseido ones, the Japanese certainly make the best :)
DeleteI Want these, not actually I NEED these ha ha! Great review :) x
ReplyDeleteHaha you'd love them Sherrie! :) x

DeleteI have never quite got the grips and wondered if they eyelash curlers even work on me.. I either do not know if I am doing it properly or I have abnormal lashes that will not curl... I may give these a go :)
ReplyDeleteThey're still my favourite to use! :)
