[Etude House] Sweet Recipe Cupcake All Over Color (PK002 & OR202) Review

Hello ^-^! I'm back with another review! This time it's from Etude House's newest collection~ the "Sweet Recipe" collection... I seriously want to buy EVERYTHING OMG...

This time I'll write about their "Cupcake All Over Color" which is a product that can be used as an eyeshadow, cream blush or lip color~

There are 5 colors in total (I want to buy them all but I went with the safest ones first lol)

I bought PK002 ("Strawberry Chiffon") and OR202 ("Peach Sugar")

Look at the packaging~ it's so cute! ;u; 























The package desing is so pretty, I just couldn't resist lol

























Let's see how they look like.. (PK002 on the left and OR202 on the right)

























Such pretty colors! (PK002 is a little less "blue-ish" in real life tho) *-* They don't looks as creamy as in the promotional pictures though... however, I think that if you mix it (or whip it idk lol) they would get that creamy texture~ They may look like lipbalms but they remind me more of cream blushes or sheer lipsticks (it's hard to describe lol)

Spread on my hand~

























Overall... as eyeshadows they look really pretty and are easy to spread. As cream blushes these are perfect too, easy to spread on the cheeks as well. And finally, as lip colors, these may be a little too light for my lips (however, my lips are very pigmented...) but they still look pretty! These might not be moistiruzing so you may want to put on some lipbalm too~ These also have a faint sweet smell, it's not a strong smell so it won't get annoying.
These seem to be durable (the average durability of 3-4 hours, but it depends on every person!)

Pros:
-Pretty colors!
-They smell so good =u=
-Cutest packaging ever
-Multi-functional
-Cheap price ($9)

Contras: 
-As lip products, they may dry the lips a little (kinda like tints)


Should you buy it?: Yes. I totally recommend these, even if they don't perform perfectly as lip products, as eyeshadows/cream blushes these work really well. The colors are really pretty too and since they're sheer, you can build them up from a subtle hint of color to a more dramatic look (so don't be afraid of the orange/red ones!) Also, for only $9, you can get a multi functional product with great packaging! I'm really happy with these and I'm planning on buying the other 3 :)

  1. The actual product photos are so misleading. I thought they were going to be whipped cream, like the baby choux base! But oh well, I've been thinking about buying the Orange one but I have a problem with its pigmentation :(

    1. Yeah... they look a lot creamier but I can tell that they're really easy to spread and still nice (just... in a different way) If you think that the orange one is "too orange" I'd still say "go for it" since the color is buildable and you can use just a little to get a subtle orange hue :)

      (just to be clear, I bought these with my own money lol)
