Etude House: Sweet Candy Stick

Hey guys! I haven't written a review in a almost two months :O I'm so sorry about that! I had to study for my Final Exams and finish up some projects. Because I haven't reviewed anything got to do with lips lately, here is one for you guys!

I got these a month ago, a gift from my mom she got when she was in Seoul :) Etude House's Sweet Candy Stick comes in three "flavours". Pink = Strawberry, Orange = Orange, Yellow = Lemon.




Packaging:
What can I say. Etude House nailed it. We have Christmas and summer mixed into one, the packaging is perfect. But there is one problem. It's nothing big, and can be dealed with. When you twist the bottom to get the product out, the stick itself doesn't go back in. In order to prevent any mishaps, simply just twist only a tiny bit of product - just enough to be smeared on your lips.

Packaging Rating: 4/5

Product Rating: 

If you guys have read my review on "Tony Moly: Petite Bunny Gloss", you will understand what I mean when I say that Sweet Candy Stick and Petite Bunny Gloss Bar are very similar. Sweet Candy Stick has a very light tint, and smells absolutely wonderful. Though Petite Bunny Gloss Bar and Sweet Candy Stick are very similar, the two have their differences. Sweet Candy Stick has the purpose and function of a tinted lip balm. It doesn't have glossy finish to it. In fact I prefer Sweet Candy Stick over Petite Bunny Gloss Bar. After applying Sweet Candy Stick, your lips are glossy for the first few minutes before having a matte finish giving your lips a very moisturised look. The colors are just fantastic. It has a very light and subtle tint - and no matter which "flavour" you use, your lips will have a beautiful matte finish with a very nice natural tint that adds a subtle splash of color to lips. Couldn't be more happy about my purchase! 

Product Rating: 5/5
