This lipstick comes in several different shades, it was the hardest thing for me to only pick one T_T If I wasn't on a budget, I would've bought them all.....

The ingredients vary depending on the colour of the lipstick. In my case (OR202) these are the ingredients:

CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, SQUALANE, TITANIUM DIOXIDE (CI 77891),

PHYTOSTERYL/ISOSTEARYL/CETYL/STEARYL/BEHENYL DIMER DILINOLEATE, POLYGLYCERYL-2 TRIISOSTEARATE, NEOPENTYL GLYCOL DIHEPTANOATE, POLYGLYCERYL-2 DIISOSTEARATE, SYNTHETIC WAX, HYDROGENATED POLYISOBUTENE, PHYTOSTERYL/BEHENYL/OCTYLDODECYL LAUROYL GLUTAMATE, MICROCRYSTALLINE WAX, RED 28 LAKE (CI 45410), RED 6 (CI 15850), POLYHYDROXYSTEARIC ACID, LAUROYL LYSINE, MICA (CI 77019), EUPHORBIA CERIFERA (CANDELILLA) WAX, VP/HEXADECENE COPOLYMER, FRAGRANCE, RED 7 LAKE (CI 15850), METHICONE, COPERNICIA CERIFERA (CARNAUBA) WAX

























Scent:

Personally, I don't really enjoy the scent of this

lipstick. It has a very artificial smell, kind of reminds me of crayons ( ´థ,_‥థ｀)

















Texture:

This lipstick has a super creamy and smooth consistency. Really enjoy the texture of this lippie, glides on like butter.





























Packaging:

The packaging of this lipstick is one of my favourite things about it! So pink, pretty and princess-like! (‥ºั⌔ºั‥ )

The box it comes in has an english description and english ingredients as well, for all us international asian beauty junkies ^_^









The colour isn't really what was I expecting when I bought it, since it looked a lot more nude and less bright in their official lip swatches.





Swatches:









Pigmentation:

Extremely pigmented! One clean swipe will offer you the swatch shown above.









The shade is a coral pink, perfect for summer! It is super bright, the pictures don't really show how vivid the lipstick actually is though, since they are a lot more attention-catching in real life. To be honest, I can't wear the full lip since it doesn't exactly match my skin tone, I think this shade would suit fairer skin tones rather than darker ones.

This is what Etude House's official swatch looks like.





Finish:

This lipstick has a semi-matte finish. At first it looks a little creamy on the lips, but definitely dries up to a matter look. However, if you are looking for a fully matte lipstick, this isn't the one to go for. I also noticed that when I have dry lips, this lipstick WILL enhance the flakiness :(





Longevity:

If you are going for a full lip, the outlines will probably fade after 1-2 hours if you don't eat or drink. The lipstick leaves a long-lasting tinted look on your lips that stays on throughout the whole day.





Price:

It is quite pricey TBH, since Etude House isn't a high-end brand or anything. It costs around 12USD depending on where you purchase it.





Pros:

-Great pigmentation

-Nice creamy consistency

-Princess like packaging

-Leaves pretty tinted lips even after the main layer has faded

-Huge variety of shades





Cons:

-Smells funky

-Enhances flaky lips

-Not cheap if you purchase online

-Didn't exactly match my skin tone like I wanted (not really fault of the lipstick though)









Conclusion:

This is a very versatile lipstick, since I can gently dab it on my lips for a natural tinted lip or go full on bold lip with it as well. Recommend? Yes :D Repurchase? Not this particular shade, but other I would love to try other colours.





Score:

7/10
