This Week I will be reviewing one of Etude House's really famous products from their Sweet Recipe line. I know I might be a bit late to be trying or even reviewing this line. But I actually prefer the 'Sweet Recipe' line compared their most recent 'Bling in the Sea'. Keep reading to see what I think about the product. I am going to buy another order from Gmarket again soon watch out for that. Since Etude House on Gmarket are doing a up to 50% sale.
So before I start my review I just want to say that I have always had really pale lips that doesn't have much redness or pink in it that makes me look ill or somethings. So you might see there might be a color change quite a bit as I already have pale lips to begin with.
As you can see the packaging is really cute and I just love it to be put with my other makeup to just make everything more cute.
This color is actually mentions in one of my favorite youtuber which is Sunnydahye. I saw that she really loves this color a lot which made me want to try it out. You might seen in the pictures that the bullet looks really orange or red but when put on your lips its quite sheer. Check below for the swatch on my wrist which shows around 2 layers of this lipstick to produce this colour.
The smell for this lipstick is absolutely gorgeous if you like the cherry jelly bean really sweet. But when applied on your lips the smell isn't as strong and even disappear after applying it for several hours. This lipstick has mentioned in the name jelly which I thought was just a name to make it sound cuter. But in reality this lipstick really is like jelly really soft and unlike other lipsticks which are much more solid like. It's almost like applying lip balm on your lips instead of lipstick. This lipstick is really moisturising and the colour stays on for quite sometime but I wouldn't say it's too pigmented after eating or after 2 hours (if you really don't touch or lick your lips a lot like my me -bad habit) the colour might have started to decrease and would need to reapply it again. This is because the lipstick is like lip tint or balm so easily washed off. Also after 2 hours my lips start to get quick dry.
I don't own any lipstick this is my first ever one so I went for a color that was recommended by people also they mentioned it being sheer. So I thought I won't have any problems since it won't be too stand out that might make me uncomfortable as I don't wear lipstick at all so I want to go for something more natural.This lipstick is also really glossy which I didn't actually like that much since it glossed too much to my liking making my lips look a little weird since my lips are actually quite thick so the gloss actually makes my lips even more full and thicker so I don't like it.
If you want the colour to stand out more just apply more coats of the lipstick to build it up. Since I wanted a more natural and simple kind of look I normally just apply one coat.
Here are some shots of before and after I apply the lipstick but sorry for the bad quality as its taken with phone.

Overall I think this color is actually really pretty but I might not be used to my lips with a different color other than my red lip tint which I thought suited me better. Maybe because of my skin tone since other people with whiter complexion might look better with this color. In conclusion I won't re-purchase this color but I might choose another color to try from the same line as I love this lines lipstick since most of them are like lip tints which are more suited for me.
The finished look:
On to my Fashion Monday this week. I will be just going out with my family and just shopping for a while. I have opted a different style compared to what I use to wear. Since I purchased a new blazer so I want to wear it out.
The sleeveless top and green shorts are both from River Island from a few year back. My blazer is from Zara as mentioned before. I have decided to wear wither white shoes to make either thing more casual looking. Also I prefer flat or trainers compared to heels as my feet are really bad whenever I wear uncomfortable or heels even flats if I wear them for more than around 3-4 hours my feet with have blisters. Which is why most of the Fashion Mondays that I have shown I just wear trainers.
