Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Lipstick
Tuesday, Mar. 26, 2013 | 18 Comments
Yesterday I received this Shu Uemura lipstick compliments of Yesstyle. The shade is PK 315 – a soft baby pink with a neutral undertone. It’s a creamy but somewhat sheer shade from their Rouge Unlimited line. The color builds easily. I found dabbing it on lightly is great for a matte pink lip. It’s creamy but feels a little dry since I’m always wearing slick lip balm. I’ve used both a gloss and clear stick balm over the lipstick today and it blends great with no feathering or creasing when adding the top layer. I’m wearing it alone in the photo below taken right after work today.
The color reminds me of two other lipsticks I’ve used. First, the texture and color are reminiscent of MAC’s St. Germain. However Shu Uemura’s lipstick is more forgiving in color payoff and moisturizing. It’s easily made to look subtle and doesn’t crease the way my MAC St. Germain constantly would.
The other lip item it reminds me of is Baby Lips Pink Wink.
(Which is a limited shade in the duo pack.) I actually think the Baby Lips would be a great dupe for this. Though the Shu Uemura lipstick lasts much longer with less fading and isn’t shimmery like Baby Lips, the Baby Lips is more moisturizing and also bubble gum flavored.
This is my first Shu Uemura lipstick and I’m a bit obsessed with the packaging. It’s sorta a little futuristic. The case catches the light so beautifully and it just has this overall feeling of sleekness in its design.

The packaging is beautiful and also quite sturdy. I always have mine in my little makeup bag and it still looks new.. just a few very fine scratches.
Yeah I was expecting a few scratches as time goes by. Typically I let it ride in a solo pocket of my purse (it as in lipsticks.)
That color is so pretty. My lips are very dry and I tend to stay away from almost all lipsticks because they are so drying, but I will definitely keep an eye out for this.
I’m not sure if this would be moisturizing enough but maybe :)
i missed photos of you like this, so pretty~~ :-)
just curious, are those your real lashes, they are lovely!
Thanks! Yeah they’re my real lashes with Dolly Wink’s Long Mascara in deep brown.
Packaging is great, color is awesome! What do we need more?!
;)
Exactly :P
have you seen Shu Uemura ob collection? It’s so cute!! I really want the custom duo case, but it’s not available currently. T T
Yeah I have a friend who purchased a few things from that collection!
The lipstick colour looks very natural on you. The packaging is also really nice!
Thank you. It’s so opposite of my natural lip’s color too :P
Looks great! I never had Shu Uemura lipsticks but I hear their cases are interchangeable, which I thought was neat. :)
Oh that’s right!
the colour and packaging are amazing
btw, I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award!~

Awe thank you dear, that was so sweet of you! I’m sorry I’m not on my blog as much as usual lately.
Very pretty colour! I like the packaging design, also. I’m a sucker for packaging.
Same. The packaging is so sleek.
