Lip Products Galore

I finally managed to dig up the camera from the dusty corners of my room and took some pictures and came back with a giant overall review. I mentioned previously about my Etude House order and while I did get a couple of products, my main purchase were on lip products. I really don't know the name of the colors because it isn't printed on the label from my poor interpretation of the Korean language. Oh, I also included a picture of my Loreal lip gloss from a previous review as well. On top of the Loreal lip shine in tenacious, then the lower left is the Etude House Juicy Pop tube, then the 55 Lip Chu, and finally the Peach Water Gloss in Strawberry Milk. I love all of these, each for a different reason. None of these have a offensive scent, but they all smell sweet. Now on to the explanations.
As you can see the Loreal Hip is pigmented as hell and on the side of it I dabbed a spot of it, then rubbed it out. It is still bright and pigmented. The Juicy Pop is a bit glossy and watery, a light glossy red but not really shiny. None of these glosses are really sticky but last a reasonable amount of time. The Lip Chu is brighter, more of a stain, not really glossy and when blended out, it just brightens up the natural shade of my lips. Finally, the Peach Gloss, once again tastes like the 2% Korean peach beverage. I don't know if the default smell of peach is this, but almost all of the peach products I have come across in Korea smells just like this. This gloss has tiny fine glitter mixed but is really unnoticeable and doesn't feel gritty. I have fairly pigmented lips but this covered them nicely. It feels light on the lips and I love this gloss.
I use these lip products for different things, like on a normal day I would just out a tiny bit of the Lip Chu, but when going for a glossy but sheer look, I would pick up the Juicy Pop. These would last me a long time, so I don't think I'll ever get the chance to repurchase before my attention wanders off to a different product.

Whenever I mention a peach 2% drink, this is the product that I am talking about. Try it out and tell me that this isn't the default scent for all peach type products coming from Korea. If you say that it isn't, I'll blatantly call you a liar.
