Etude House Apricot Stick in #1, 2, 3 and 8

If you see this post on another site than lotuspalace.blogspot.com it has been stolen and used without my permission. I only allow reposts with proper credits for my work (please contact me first!)!

The Apricot Stick lipsticks from Etude House caught my attention back in July when I placed a Gmarket order.
These are very cheap (like US$3 or so), come in an array of 8 bright colors, most of them in the red/bright pink/orangey color scheme.

The Apricot Sticks look like regular pencils from outside but when you remove the cap you just have to twist out regular lipbalm-like lipsticks tinted in the same color as their packaging.

These lippies have a nice unobtrusive fruity peachy scent (or apricot but to me this smells more like peach) and are quite pigmented (at least these are super-bright on my lips).
Wearing #2:

The colors I got are #1 (hot pink), #2 (bubblegum pink), #3 (reddish pink) and #8 (a very bright juicy red).

To be honest again I don´t like any of the colors. They are all super bright and have a slightly dull finish so they look uneven and weird and I just don´t feel comfortable wearing these colors. These are fun colors for younger girls or whoever can pull off brights (think many deeper skin-tones than mine) but for me these just don´t look really sophisticated or wearable.

Overall rating for me is 2/5 as these are cheap, look cute and smell nice but overall I dislike these but as I said, others might just love these!
