Let me address the elephant in the room: the only reason the girlfriend and I even bought these lipsticks were because of the adorable cases.

THE BACKSTORY: The concept of choosing both your own lipstick colour và case is new to the Korean market, from what I could understand when this line first launched. However, I’ve been familiar with this concept for a long time. Off the đứng đầu of my head, I know Paul và Joe has been doing this for years, so has Anna Sui… I think there are a handful of Japanese brands that allow you to lớn choose different shades of lipsticks to lớn put in different cases. Not just lipsticks, either. Blushes, highlighters, pressed powders, eyeshadows – you name it. I believe the K-Beauty world has only recently started to vì chưng the same. Imagine the damage it’ll cause once they fully catch wind of the practice.
ASSEMBLY: If I remember correctly, the girlfriend và I excitedly assembled these lipsticks after an exam. As you can see, the case và the lipstick bullet come separately. All you have to vày to assemble the lipstick is lớn push the part containing the bullet into the case. If you hear a click, you’ll know it’s secure.
THE PRODUCT: Honestly, there’s not much to write about… These are your average glossy, sheer lipsticks.
If you’re new to lipsticks in general, you will really enjoy this formula. They are easy khổng lồ wear, comfortable on the lips and there’s no question of dehydrated, chapped lips when you put these on. If you’re wary of brighter colours, this line is the perfect way for you to break into them. Also, whenever you’re in a rush, you can just pop them on the lips & call it a day. It also has the faintest fruity scent.
I must địa chỉ cửa hàng – these are really sheer. Rather than a sheer lipstick, these seem more like a nice tinted lip-balm. There’s a fine line between those two. However, the good thing is, these layer very nicely. You can build up the opacity of the lipstick to lớn your liking. They go on easily and give the lips a smooth look, filling in lip-lines and the like.
Since these are very glossy, they don’t last on the lips. You’ll need to re-apply the hàng hóa frequently & after a certain amount of re-application, your lips will be tinted slightly. These also tend to lớn move around a lot, so you might want khổng lồ be careful.

I vày have a few complaints about this line. Firstly, the colours in this line are ridiculously similar. Unless there’s a complete change in the colour itself, the tonal differences are barely notice-able. Especially once they’re on the lips. Secondly, I find the case containing the lipstick itself a little flimsy. Fair warning, just be careful with the lipsticks.
Another observation of mine is how similar this is, in terms of formula, lớn the Yves Saint Laurent Sheer Candy lipsticks. I’ll vì chưng a Battle post, perhaps?
Top khổng lồ Bottom: RD302 Swag Red, PK008 Layered Pink
SWATCHES & SHADES: lượt thích I mentioned before, these swatch very nicely. You can also build these up khổng lồ the opacity you desire. Personally, I love a sheer wash of colour. But I built up the opacity in the swatch photo by going over it multiple times.
There are trăng tròn different shades và 20 different cases for you to choose from.
‘RD302 Swag Red’ is a vibrant, watermelon red. It’s one of those colours that can completely pull a look together once you put it on. I really lượt thích this shade. There are plenty of other similarly pretty reds in this line, so you’re bound to find something you like. I put this in Case #1, ‘Yummy Ketchup’.
‘PK008 Layered Pink’ is a loud coral pink. It’s a very warm colour và those with warm or neutral undertones will be able khổng lồ wear this shade with ease. Again, like I said, you’re bound to find a pink you like since there are several other pinks in this collection. This one belongs khổng lồ the girlfriend. She picked Case #12 ‘Pill Factory’ for her lipstick.
GIRLFRIEND’S TWO CENTS: The girlfriend was on the lookout for a sheer lipstick. She likes it for everyday wear. She likes the colour & she thinks the packaging is adorable. She also notes that you have khổng lồ re-apply it ever so often.
PRICE and QUANTITY: You get 3 grams of product. The lipstick refill usually retails for $6 – $8 and the case for $3 – $4. Combined, you’d probably fork out $9 – $12.
