Happy 25th Anniversary. The ultimate gift. Mr. shu uemura opened the first Beauty Boutique in Tokyo’s upscale Omotesando district in June of 1983. Each year a limited edition collection of the season’s most “festive” beauty items are created as a cherished memento of the special day.

In June 2008, shu uemura introduces the limited-edition collection named HANA-BI, meaning fireworks, to celebrate the season full of energy, excitement and festivals. The HANA-BI collection is inspired by three fundamental elements of nature: terre (earth), rose (flower), and source (water). The collection includes a series of 100% natural origin fragrances formulated with Depsea water and unique color palettes that captures the essence of each fragrance. 

Looking deeper into the essence of HANA-BI, the word also contains HANA, meaning flower, and BI, representing beauty. Fireworks are beautiful flowers of fire expressing the core of shu uemura’s vision for this anniversary collection. As vibrant and energetic as each woman, the diverse colors and dynamic shapes of fireworks are captured in this 2008 summer collection.

The art featured on the products in the limited edition HANA-BI collection was created through a collaboration with Gweneal Nicolas, a multi-talented Tokyo-based architect, space, package and graphic designer. The spontaneous burst of color on the packaging , unique on each bottle, represents his interpretation of a firework, to celebrate this momentous occasion.

The shu uemura HANA-BI Collection includes: Limited Edition palette fleur de terre: energizing, luminous colors inspired by nature, full of energy. SRP: $65.

Limited Edition palette fleur de rose: sophisticated feminine colors inspired by the beauty of magnificent flowers including rose, jasmine and ylang ylang. SRPL$65.

Limited Edition Shimmer Eye Liner: shimmering, long-lasting liquid eye liner that elegantly defines eyes. Available in black and brown. SRP: $33.

Limited Edition 100% Natural Origin Fragrance: “I have always been aware that beauty comes in many forms, in the same number as there are women. This perfume is an extension of my cosmetics. A fragrance, like makeup, will slightly alter its effect with the uniqueness of the individual who wears it.”

shu uemura believes in the importance of nature in beauty. In an unprecedented feat, these three 100% natural origin fragrances incorporate the wisdom of nature with pure Depsea water into a bouquet of fragrances to complete each woman’s beauty. Essential oils act as the core fragrance ingredient.
