Etude House Dear My Blooming Lips Talk Lipsticks: Photos, Swatches

If you want proof that time go by too quickly: I unboxed these on 31st October last year, and now I'm posting photos! I sternly told myself:

You cannot click anymore photos until you have posted all the ones in your computer first. Put your camera down I say!

First of all, what a long name! 'Dear My Blooming Lips-talk'. It doesn't even make sense! Well, unless it's a short cryptic love note: 

Dear My,

Blooming Lips Talk.

From,

Your Dear. 

Why do I write these things?! On to the lippies.....

Finish ~ Creamy & doesn't sit well on the lips. I'd say only a little bit less creamy than YSL Rouge Volupte Lipsticks, which I'm not a fan of.

The Good ~ Packaging |  Design  |  Inexpensive for how adorable the packaging is  | Has a mild grapefruit (I think) scent  | You get a lipstick & bow ring, coz those bows can be taken out! Although they're too big for my fingers.

The Bad ~ The texture emphasizes lines & locking lips makes it look patchy  |  Lip swatches below were done on chapped lips, and they didn't look good  |  Weak staying power  | Available only online- for most of us.

Too pweety!

(RD304, PK005) Doodly heart & crowns carvings on the lipsticks ...super cute!

Etude Dear My Blooming Lips Talk PK005 ~ Described as 'In Love Pink'. This type of light pink is my favorite, and more flattering on me than pinks like MAC Angel. 

Etude Dear My Blooming Lips Talk RD304 ~ Described as 'Thrilling Red', but it's more of a deep coral pink. It's really pretty, and my favorite of the two. It also leaves a subtle stain after wearing off.

Swatches ~ Top: PK005, Bottom: RD304

I clicked the lip swatches below in the evening when it was getting dark, so the photos look dull & inaccurate. I didn't feel like posting them, but just to give you an idea of the finish....
