Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint {Lavender and Coral} Review~!

Hey Guys~!

In my February Favorites I talked about how much I liked the Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in the color Lavender. I've had them for a while and have been testing them out. The shades that I'm reviewing are the limited edition ones, so I'm not sure where you can get these. So let's start~~!


I love the packaging for these!! It's so cute and I like the size of it. It doesn't take up a lot of space in my purse. The design isn't like any lip product I own, with its unique shape. Also I like that it has a doe foot applicator, which makes it really easy to apply.

These two are the limited edition shades of the Fresh Cherry Tints from Etude House. There are four other shades from their original line, which are less bold colors. These two colors are called OR202, which is the orange one, and PP501, is the purple one.


On the Etude House website, they promise that this product will be moisturizing, provide a nice shine, and that it's build-able. I tested out all of these claims before writing my review, so let's start with the moisture in the formula.

Before that, let's talk about pigmentation, both as a swatch and on the lips. First, here are swatches on my wrist. When first applied, they have a liquid looking shine and are very vibrant. When it's blended out, the color is still vibrant, but less pigmented.


My natural lip color is a muted red/pink, and if your lips aren't the same color as mine, you may have different color results. On the lips, the orange appears to look more like coral and the purple looks more like a berry color. I do like how both of them look, but I wish they stayed more true to color.

I have slightly dry lips, mainly cause right now it's winter and freezing cold where I live. If I apply this without a balm underneath, I do feel like my lips are softer, but I can see some of the product bunching up in the cracks of my lips when they're dry.

I got the two of them for around $6.99 and I think that's a really good price. I did try to search online to see where it's still available if you guys are interested in it, and I found it on Ebay for the same price I paid with free shipping. I think it's a really good price for two lip products and it's not too expensive if you're buying this to test out different colors.

I absolutely love these lip tints~!! They are just as good, if not better than the American lip tints/stains I've tried. I definitely want to try some of the other colors and some more products from Etude House. I really am impressed with these and am not looking forward to the day I use them up.

I hope you guys enjoyed this review. If you have any products you can recommend me from Etude House, or any questions, leave them for me in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

TonyMoly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar {#05 and #06} Review~!

Hey Guys~!

In my Korean and English cosmetics haul, {click here} if you haven't seen it yet, I showed these TonyMoly Bunny Gloss Bars. Before purchasing them, I'd heard tones of great things and read a ton of reviews on them, all with positive opinions. Even so I still thought it would be good to get my own review out, just cause I really wanted to. So let's start~~!


Like everyone else, I absolutely adore the packaging. It's super cute. Each shade has a different face on it, which I thought was a unique detail used. Also they're really small, which makes it great for traveling. They're about the same size or smaller than a normal pencil, so it's something I can keep in my pencil case at school and not have it take up a ton of space. Also I don't know if I just have a faulty one, but mine sometimes doesn't twist down. I have to push it down as I twist it, and cause of that it, the product has broken a few times.

On the TonyMoly website, I saw six different shades offered. But there are three other shades that I couldn't find on their website that I did see on Amazon. The two I ordered were shades #05, Juicy Peach, and #06, Juicy Orange.

Here are swatches of both of them. Juicy Peach is a sheer natural color. Juicy Orange is a sheer orange tint.

These are supposed to be the combination between a lip stick, lip balm, and lip gloss, which to me sounded pretty exciting. Having a mix of those three products makes traveling with makeup easier, since you won't have to take as many things with you to have all those purposes.

I do think these live up to that idea, however I wish they were just a little more pigmented. The peach one barely shows up on my lips, which is a shame cause the swatch is beautiful.


I loved how inexpensive these were. On Amazon they were around $1 and since I have Amazon Prime I didn't have to pay shipping. So for the two of them I paid $2, which is really great since I really like them.

I do see why everyone really likes these. They are moisturizing, have a sheer pigmentation, and create a beautiful shine, putting three products into one. However I have had issues with the technicality of the packaging, it getting jammed, and I do with it was slightly more pigmented. If you are looking for a lip product that can be worn everyday, this is great to try.

I hope you guys enjoyed this review. If you liked it, and have a suggestion for what I should review next, let me know in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.
