Shu Uemura Shu:Palette Fresh Nudes is a limited edition luxurious eyeshadow palette that features 16 ultra-finely milled nude shades, in 6 different finishes and textures, a full size double-ended brush and a very large mirror on the interior lid of the palette.

This luxe palette is perfect for anyone seeking neutral eyeshadows with highly saturated hues that are sophisticated. elegant, and appropriate for daily wear. The colors are office appropriate, but can easily transition to evening looks as well. The colors range from pale pinks, to warm peaches and terracottas, to glimmering taupes and browns, and each of the shadows is uniformly very finely-milled, and silky smooth to the touch. These shadows deposit color evenly, glide across the skin effortlessly, blend to perfection, and offer buildable coverage without any caking. All of the shadows offer excellent wear-time, particularly when applied over a primer, and all of the hues remain true-to-color all day.
