And on June 19, 2026 (Fri), a new beauty boutique 'Shu Uemura Omotesando Hills Main Store shu:ARTstage,' which inherits the legacy of the brand, will be born in Omotesando where the brand's DNA is alive.

Koichi Kurihara, Executive Officer of Mori Building Corporation, Seiya Tsuzuki, Vice President and Head of L'Oreal Luxe Business Division of L'Oreal Japan, and Rika Machida, General Manager of Shu Uemura Brand, attended. The ceremony was held in a festive and uplifting atmosphere befitting the signature color of the new main store and symbolizing the brand's passion, 'red'.

On the same day, a 'Makeup Show' by Shu Uemura's makeup artists was held at Omotesando Hills Space O as an opening event for the new main store. The theme of the show, 'The Face is the Rebirth of Makeup,' was expressed in four colors by four top artists.
