I am working on going to keep my trend of posting all of my lip tints until I run out of collections! Today, I wanted to talk about a more recent collection from Etude – their Fixing Tint line. This is a line that is still having active releases, as there have been 2 releases already this year. They’ve even had a collaboration with BT21! Keep reading to learn more about the tints, my and the Koreans’ thoughts, and where you can find them yourself.

K-Points: 10/10
So, for beauty reviews, unlike my album unboxings, I will be much harsher because this can directly impact your health, where buying K-Pop albums does not. It just impacts your wallet. As such, all of my beauty reviews will be out of 10 points. I will not be going over that number.
This is probably one of my favorite lip lines from Etude to this date. The formula is incredibly lightweight and non-drying. It survived on my lips through the dry winter, and it didn’t make them worse. Additionally, there are lots of shades that can be worn on a variety of occasions. On top of all of that, the shades have a good balance between warm and cool tones, so you can easily find something for every outfit.
What are the Koreans saying?
I was digging through reviews on 화해 (Hwahae)*, a Korean skincare app that lists out the ingredients of products from many brands for people to look through as well as post reviews. So, instead of going through and talking about what the Koreans thought since there are 22 tints, I will rank all 22 in order based on the number of reviews and stars. Also, I included the release date of the shades so that you can that into account with the number of reviews.

Where Can I Buy It?
Whenever I buy K-Beauty, I do shop at a couple of different places. If you want to see all of the places that I shop at, you can check them all out here. I picked these up at a number of different places, including Style Korean and Olive Young. With a number of the places I shop for cosmetics at, you can also use Rakuten for cash back off of your purchases on their site.
What is Rakuten?
Rakuten is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Rakuten, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over $80 back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used Rakuten before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using Rakuten. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Ulta typically has 3%. These are just some of the companies on the website, but there are other major retailers on there as well!
Rakuten also has a Google Chrome extension that will tell you as soon as you log onto a site that has cashback with a little pop-up in the corner so that you can ensure you are saving money!
