Review: Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint *Birthday Edition*

Back with another review post! ^^~

This time i'll review Etude's old product but new limited shade, the shade is PP501 Cherry Lavender. Etude released this shade together with OR202 Cherry Coral to celebrate their 5th anniversary~

This shade is super-freaking-pretty and i just knew that i need to get my hands on this when i saw the ad! XD

all of the pretty colours <3

Packaging

top side

I really like this pretty birthday graphic! Super cute!

front side

the side

back side

As usual, Etude never fails to create another super cute princessy packaging. Really, nothing i can say anymore <3 

The only thing that i'm not really like is the confetti graphic makes it quite hard to read the informations of this tint

The tint itself also very cute even though its much simpler than the box. But the shape of this tint really feminine and cute. The long white cap also makes it easier to handle.

applicator

The applicator just standard tint applicator. The size is quite tiny so really easy to use.

Scent

I really love the scent of this tint! <3 the scent is sweet and even tastes like candy~ But once you put it on your lips, the scent will disappear :)

Texture/Finish

The texture is quite runny and the finish itself is a little glossy. This tint is claims to be moisturizing but i find that this tint not moisturizing my lips at all. But not drying my lips either, so i got that going which is nice ;pp

Lasting Power

The lasting power is actually pretty good. It lasts 5 to 6 hours for me (with talking, eating, drinking, and stuff) after that, the colour will not as fresh as the first time i applied but its still there.

Colour

swatch on my hand

bare lips

applied on my lips

On my hand, the colour looks very pretty purple! <3 the purple is very girly and more like lavender purple so its easier to pull off. But, i kinda disappointed because on my lips, the colour looks like pink with a hint of purple rather a beautiful pigmented lavender colour (like the ad). However, i read a couple blogger's reviews, the purple looks pretty on their lips T_T 

I think its because my lips is quite pigmented...

+ cheap

+ the sweet scent and taste <3

+ super duper cute packaging

+ not drying

+ pretty colour

+ glossy finish

+ quite long lasting

- the colour on my lips not what i expected

- not moisturizing

- must buy them online

Recommend? Yes! the colour is really pretty and definitely will takes forever to finish this ;)

very suitable for daily use

Share with me what your currently fav tint in the comment! ^^

Review: aritaum wannabe cushion tint

Hello, girls! ;) How are you??
I'm back with a review post! :D well, actually, i'm quite busy with all my assignments lately but i decided to have a little break and write this post -3-

So! I really excited to write a review about this beautiful and genius lip product!
Aritaum Wannabe Cushion Tint!

 Yes! a tint with a cushion! cute, isn't it? ><~~
At first, i only bought 1 shade and 1 lip concealer (having really hard time to pick that 1 shade! XD) and i absolutely fell in love with the colour, the formula, the concept, Just another holy grail for me!
This tint is a must-have for gradation lip look!

Different motives for each shade!!

The cushion~~

Packaging
The packaging is the most unique packaging so far! The packaging is many kinds of motives and some of them had a little bit tribal feeling to them. It has 21 shades and each shade has different motive! How creative the packaging designer is!! Loveeee itt!!

The end of the cap had the same colour with its tint, so, you'll never get confused to get it from your make-up box (you know, in case you bought a lot of them! XD)

The only downside is the amount of this tint is so tiny! :(( I love them so much and i end up only wore them couple of times because i don't want to finish them up so soon :( this is such a shame since the price is quite expensive.

this is all of the tint

As i said before, this tint has a built-in cushion~~ the cushion is to help you make a gradation look
so, first you just swipe the tint on your lips and blend the colour to make gradation with the cushion~~ super-super easy! i can make a gradation lip look even when i'm in hurry! :D

Scent
This tint not only had unique packaging and gorgeous colours but it also had a really sweet scent! a candy scent. So sweet, even i always want to lick it :p


Colour
One of the plus sides of this tint is the amazing amount of shades!! from natural to bold, nude to dark, red to orange, i'm sure you'll find the shade you looking for! And all of the shades are soooo prettyyyy!! i had really difficult time to pick the shade! XD

mine is nikita, claire (lip concealer), serene, and mini :3

Pigmentation
The pigmentation quite good. Both of the bold and natural colours have amazing pigmentation!!

Texture
The texture is super creamy and blendable. This tint not drying up my lips nor moisturizing it either. The only thing i don't like is when i want to apply it full on my lips, the tint is settle in my lip fine lines, leaving patches which is not good :\

Settle in fine lines :\ (this is 'Mini')

This tint have a matte finish :3


Swatches

My bare lips

1. Serene, 2. Nikita, 3. Claire, 4. Mini

Claire (lip concealer)

I still in on my way to find a holy grail concealer for my lip (i love gradation lip look!) so far, i'm only using bb cream or regular concealer to conceal my lips but they're too drying! :( and i must say, this one is had everything i need to be my HG lip concealer. But the thing is, because it so tiny, i cann't use it everyday! :(

Nikita

Nikita is a red colour with orange undertone. Just a beautiful colour! Nikita is my favourite amongst the three shades i had~~

Serene

       

Looking at the promotional pictures, i thought serene would be a softer version of nikita, but, turns out, it's a orange coral colour :\ It's a big difference
fortunately, i was looking for a nude shade so okay for me, but i'm quite disappointed of the big difference tho -___-

Mini

Mini is a beautiful electric pink! love it! use it full lips and you get bold almost-neon pink colour but apply it only at inner lips and you get super pretty pink!


Love :
+ Wide range of shades, and they're beautiful ;D
+ Super pigmented!!
+ Unique packaging
+ Not drying my lips!
+ Had cushion to create beautiful gradation lip look
+ Creamy texture
+ Super sweet scents~~ <3

Not Love :
- Settle to fine lines
- Tiny amount of tint ><
- Pricey (for that amount of tint!)

Despite of all the weaknesses, this tint still make me love them!! <3 This tint make me can make gradation lip in a minute! If you a newbie in make-up world, ulzzang, or just a fan of gradation lip like me, definitely give this tint a try! ^^

Repurchase? Of course! Curious with Jean and Sugar~~ ;)
