Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Lipsticks – CR330 and PK345

The pros and cons of having too many makeup products – you sometimes lose track. Perhaps I should hire a warehouse assistant hmmm. Whenever I open my lipstick drawer, it’s like staring at the army stock of bullets. I have way, way too many lipsticks – I’d previously done a review on the Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited PK325 without realising that I also had it in two more shades – CR330 and PK345.

What’s more, I didn’t even realise that two of them were in the same shades lol. The centre and the right side one are both the same.



Here I am, without any lipstick (and looking vaguely pale I must say)

Me with the PK345 on! Much more lively, don’t you think?

Plus, I heard that the rage now is all about Yoon Eun Hye’s lips in I Miss You. Apparently she used the Nars colour, but I’m not a fan. I think it’s a tad bit too clownish for me. This PK345 has a pretty similar feel, but less vulgarly pink.

woo baby Yoo (Seung Ho) can do that to me too muahaha

Ok enough perving around. Moving on to the next lipstick, the CR330

I say…

• The packaging is a clear plastic container with a silver inner casing – the usual Shu Uemura type of packaging. It’s also a twist-up typical lipstick, so I don’t have much to say about that.
• PK345 is more liquid and less creamy. It’s sort of like a gloss.
• CR330 is more creamy and tends to cake and settle into the fine lines of my lips more easily.
• It applies on easily and smoothly, with no smell whatsoever – I’m fine with that.
• I guess as with most lipsticks (with the exception of my beloved Dior Addict that lasts and lasts), this is good for a wear-and-greet. The kind that you would swipe on justtttt before entering the location, and then it’ll make its exit faster than Cinderella.

Worth a try if you’re aiming to get Yoon Eun Hye’s lip colour or just need to hurl your money somewhere. You can try hurling it at me though heh.
