3CE Drop Glow Gel: five checks for Korea's 12 shades versus the English site's 10

Compare 3CE's Korean twelve-option selector, English ten-option selector, its 2024 ten-shade video and the Korean retailer's twelve-option listing.

3CE's 2024 brand film: original ten shades and Drop Applicator · 3CE STYLENANDA (official Korean brand) · YouTube

Korean color-cosmetics brand 3CE displays different Drop Glow Gel shade counts across its own sites. As checked on 31 October 2026, the Korean official product selector showed twelve names, including Inspired and Mauve Call, and Olive Young Korea listed 3.8g / twelve options. The official English-language selector showed ten. The Korean product description itself contains both old ten-shade wording and a twelve-shade reference. These page differences do not prove shared formulas or availability in all countries. The March 2024 official 3CE video introduced ten launch-era shades and a Drop Applicator. It is manufacturer promotion, not a contemporary firsthand wear or swatch test.

  1. 01

    Date the ten-shade video

    The original March 2024 3CE video depicts the ten-shade collection of that period. Do not mistake it for a full 2026 range.

    Check the 3.8g, twelve-option listing

    On 31 October 2026, 3CE Korea's selector showed twelve colors including Inspired and Mauve Call; the English official selector showed ten. Even the Korean product copy contains both ten and twelve. Olive Young's 3.8g / twelve-option title describes a Korean listing, not guaranteed inventory abroad. Check your market's selectable shades and the actual label.

    Use screen swatches as reference only

    Lighting, display settings and natural lip pigmentation affect how shades look. 3CE's official 'ALL SHADE SWATCHES' video, dated 13 March 2024, is a brand-produced reference to its earlier shade presentation. We verified its title, uploader and release date, but did not test the full footage or individual swatch frames. Do not treat it as proof that all 12 Korean-listed options in 2026 appear, or that they will look the same on your lips. Check the actual shade label.

    Start with the Drop Applicator lightly

    Use a small amount starting at the center of the lips and smooth outward, building cautiously if desired. No firsthand performance testing is claimed.

    Mind hygiene and irritation

    Do not share lip applicators. Avoid using over broken or inflamed lips; discontinue for lasting discomfort.

✦ Helpful tips

  • Distinguish legacy ten-shade copy on the Korean product page from its twelve selectable colors.
  • A brand film is promotional; online shade display, regional options and availability are not independently tested.

ⓘ Keep in mind

  • Stop for persistent swelling or itching and seek advice if severe.
  • No independent wear, color or longevity claim is made.
