REVIEW: Etude House (not cruelty free) Peach Water Gloss - Strawberry Milk- 3 Stars

AmorePacific (parent company) announced they would no longer test on animals, but they refuse to pull out of China ($_$). Thus they cannot be considered cruelty-free.


REVIEW: Etude House Peach Water Gloss (Strawberry Milk)

Brand: Etude House
Parent Company: AmorePacific
Line: ?
Make-up Type: Lip Gloss (sponge applicator)
Origin:  South Korea
Tested on Animals: Parent company AmorePacific committed to ending testing in MAy 2013, but has yet to pull out of China.





Summary: The packaging is gorgeous, the color is gorgeous, but it's a little too sheer and has not so great coverage and lastability. The purpose of water gloss is to absorb into the lips and feel weightless and moisturized. This didn't happen...Great idea, not so great product quality.

Price: $7.99
Size: standard
Packaging: Comes with little box - the gloss tube is pretty and has the flower/tulip logo cover.
Scent/taste: neutral
Color: #2 Strawberry Milk
Texture: a little sticky
Ease of Use: a little messy and it's very sheer and wears off easily
Effect: pretty color, but several coats need to be added, and still it vanishes quickly...
Verdict.....Would not buy again...

Brand: Beyond Line: Alice II Make-up Type: foundation pact Origin: South Korea Cruelty Free :  Yes   REVIEW Summary: Price:     2/5   Their website has no price information, but needs to be imported via sites that sell internationally. I found it for $21, which is ghastly. Size:  2 /5  15 g  Large pact, but hardly any content inside. Packaging:  5 /5  You will buy this solely for the package design.  It comes in a little paper box with Alice designs, and the pact has a beautiful Alice design. And a mirror inside. Scent:  1/5 Floral. Again. It reminds me of something you'd smell your grandma putting on when you're little. Dislike. It also does not fade. Color/ Shade: 1 /5   #02 Natural Beige  is the   darker of the two, but it makes me lighter. I hate it. Texture:  3 /5   Average. It's a thin cream. E ase of use:  4/5  Pact has a sponge to apply, snd you dip that in the sponge that holds the product. Effect : 1/5 It is said to have a bit of lus
