JoxinXJ's: Korean Balmy Lipsticks

Alright, so here I have two lipsticks that are said to be moisturising, coloured and reasonably priced!

I got the APIEU lipstick in korea during their big sale and it was like about 2500KRW which is about S$3. Such a bargain, SO ITS A MUST BUY even when they are left with 2 colours, a green ( give off no colour but a lot and when i say a lot i mean MASSIVE amount of glitters) and a Neon Pink. Since there is a pink, why not get it? since it is only a couple of dollars and it smells likes candy too.

And the Etude House Jelly Lips Talk lipstick for 8500KRW roughly about S$9. This lipstick is highly raved, so I thought this should be picked up as well.

They are definitely lacking in opaque pigmentation, but the good thing about it is that it is moisturising but still provide you with colours that sheer but buildable. The colours after you build them up, they still a lot your natural lip colour to peek through so it gives a more natural look and in my opinion, it gives me a more youthful look.

They are also really soft and balmy, definitely forgiving to those that had slightly dry lips. Don't recommend using it on chapped lips because the product do accentuate the appearance of it.

For me, i prefer the Etude House more because when u apply is after preping your lips with lip balm and had get rid of the dead skin/chapped skin the whole lips look like you had a clear gloss on top of it. Very water-like appearance almost a glass like look, not glossy. Really love it on days when I want some colours on to look more put together.

As for APIEU, it just give one a nice pink sheen to your lips which is something you can definitely find in the market. But Thumbs up for the price!
