KOREAN COSMETICS: TONY MOLY CAT CHU WINK LIPSTICK

My name is Leenie and I am a makeupholic! :S 

Anyways, lately I've really just been loving lipsticks! They're just so great! Props to who ever invented lipsticks because I swear there are millions of shades and brands and tubes out there in the world of LIPSTICKS! Does anyone feel like a new obsession coming on? I DO! 

So. I love Korean cosmetics and everything that has to do with cute packaging so I ordered two of the Tony Moly Cat Chu Wink lipsticks. Wow, that was a hand full to read/say in my head! :P

I got it in TWO colors: Coral POP (because I'm OBSESSED with anything coral) and Pink Wink 



Let's just take a moment and admire how adorable this packaging is! LIKE WOW! SO CUTE! ^^

REVIEW TIME 

Aside from the adorably jaw dropping packaging, the formulation is pretty great for these lipsticks. I would consider them more of a balm type lipstick like Revlon Lip Butters but the Tony Moly ones are less greasy feeling. They have light color pigmentation so it's not really BAM! in your face coral or BARBIE pink. I feel like the colors are really subtle and looks natural. They enhance your lip colors a little big and leaves them feeling moisturized. I think that all Asian cosmetics are very subtle has this Dolly look to them. This is not for you if you enjoy the super dramatic clubbing makeup but this is DEFINITELY for you if you're more into the sweet summer dress out and about look! :)

KOREAN COSMETICS: THE FACE SHOP CUSHION BLUSHER

My orders came for some awesome Korean Cosmetics! I'm really excited because these are so so CUTE (packaging wise)!!!

Let me introduce myself first! Hi, I'm Leenie and I am a blush addict!!!

I love blushes of all shapes and colors and I definitely don't discriminate!

The Face Shop is a Korean cosmetic brand that makes anything from BB creams to lipsticks and everything in between. I'm not too familiar with Korean cosmetics that much but I have seen a lot of the products online so I just went ahead and got the cutest packaging because I am a SUCKER for packaging of course! :P

I got two of The Face Shop Cushion Blushers: Rose Cushion and Coral Cushion (because I am OBSESSED WITH CORAL)

REVIEW TIME 

DESPITE the fact that these blushes are in the cutest packaging, these were not my favorite blushes because they are not very pigmented. The swatches took forever for me to do because they just could not show up. The lasting time for these blushes are really short because they're really chalky so it rubs off really easily. 

10/10 for CUTE packaging! 

5/10 for the quality of the blush...
