And now\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shuuemura.com.sg\/\">Shu Uemura\u00a0<\/a>offers us a new Lightbulb Kit consisting of a foundation - available in 14 shades - and a funny-shaped sponge which looks like a big mushroom.<\/p> <p>Intrigued by this latest offering of the Japanese beauty brand, we tested for you!\u00a0Very easy to use, the result is simply stunning and impossibly natural.\u00a0The brand has done several tests under different lights and we must say that each time, the face looks much more enhanced with the foundation.\u00a0The proof is in the slide images above.<\/p>  <p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2013\/10\/7-shu-uemera-lightbulb.jpg\"><span style=\"display: block;\" class=\"wrap-img\" id=\"wrap-img-4175\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-4175 img-responsive \" alt=\"7-shu-uemera-lightbulb\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2013\/10\/7-shu-uemera-lightbulb.jpg\" width=\"296\" height=\"396\" \/><\/span><\/a>\u00a0Why we love it?<\/strong><\/p> <p>Designed by a pro for a 'pro result'.\u00a0Unlike us, the pro makeup artists apply the foundation with light tapping to better target the needs of the skin.

This gesture can spread the oil and improve the complexion. Its roundness prevents edge marks after application.<\/p> <p><em>- Use the pointed edge to erase the shine:<\/em><br \/> Without adding foundation, pat your face with the smallest and sharpest point to regulate the brightness level on the surface.<\/p>  <p><strong>Our trick:\u00a0<\/strong>We\u00a0saved the packaging of the sponge and after each use., we slip it back inside to prevent it from lagging behind in the bathroom.\u00a0Hand wash it with cleaning soap once a week, and Voila!<\/p>  <p><em>The lightbulb (\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shuuemura.fr\/\">Shu Uemura<\/a>\u00a0, approx.
