I was super pleased with the condition that the product came in. It was really well protected; bubble wrap and foam pieces! In addition, I was sent all these little samples which I was very happy about and have used by now 🙂 Just a little heads up, the skinfood cream smells reaally nice and brightens well, whilst the super aqua cream is moisturising and lasts for a long time on the skin. Plus, you receive a nice, bright business card of theirs which really attracts me to their website.
The Sweet Recipe Candy Stick is $7.54 on Cosmetic-Love site and comes in 3 different flavours: Strawberry, Orange and Lemon. In the picture below, you can see the different swatches and read some more information on the products (but only if you can read Korean. Otherwise, like me, just enjoy the pretty pictures).

So overall thoughts on this product? There are a ton of good points on this lip stick, but there are also a few little things that I didn’t really love.
Here are the ratings I would give:
Effect ♥︎♥︎♥︎♡♡
The effect of the candy stick was really nice in that it moisturises the lips and smelt just like oranges. I really liked that natural sheen it gave me as well, however it didn’t appear to be as bright as the stock photo and it doesn’t stand out as much as I’d like it to.
Application ♥︎♥︎♡♡♡
This is the true downfall of the product. At first, I was super happy with this since everything functioned properly. But the actual application is quite faint and after a few times of using it, the stick no longer winds back down again. Instead I have to push the makeup part back into the tube now, and that really gets me grossed out because I hate touching lip products with my hands for fear of the lipstick getting dirty.
Packaging ♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎
I ADORE the packaging! What more can I say about it? It’s so cute and sweet looking 🙂
Price ♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♡
I find this product really cheap, as Etude House products generally are. Plus, right now there is a 10% discount on it at the Cosmetic-Love site which makes it even more affordable.
Overall ♥︎♥︎♥︎♡♡
The Candy Stick was pretty great and I’d use it daily, however I’m not sure if I’d opt to buying this again, since I have experienced quite a few problems with it 🙁
