Hello sweethearts! I recieved this lipstick some months ago and finally decided to do a review for it. I hope that you'll find it usefull! I've been huge an Etude fan for some years now, but finding their products is a bit difficult for me since I don't live in Korea.
It comes in this pretty packaging with the name of the product and the brand. I got it in the shade RD304, which is listed as a red colour, but there are many other ones you can choose from.
And this is the actual lipstick. Yet again, the packaging is what made most of us fall for this product. Whilst nearly all my lip products from other brands come in plain, dark-colored containers, this lipstick really stands out! The cap reminds me of a tulip, and the bow is such a cute detail! It also has the same heart and crown design that appears on the box engraved on the bullet (which I failed to notice whilst taking the photos because I have the bad habit of not pushing the lipstick out completely).
Now avant! On to the swatches, my dears! :

Without vs. With
Even if it's listed as a red, I would definitively say it's more of a pinkish coral.
It smells very nice (sweet?) and contrary to what I thought it would be like when I saw the bullet, it's quite creamy. It's very moistfull and gives your lips a slight glossy finish!
I must recomend exfoliating your lips before wearing it, though.
The downside comes with it's duration: I had to constantly be re-applying it. After two hours it was gone, and it doesn't last if you eat. So I stuck it in my purse and kept applying it on throughout the day.
It also stained my lips, but that may have something to do with them being chapped that day.
PROs:
- Warm coral color
- High pigmentation
- Nice scent
- Moistfull
- Creamy texture
- Reasonable price
CONs:
- Doesn't last long
- Possible stain...?
