Got my hands on the Shini Star lip balm in Taemin's pick, #5 Guava, from Etude House's Shinee Special Edition line. I really like the concept of having a singer's autograph and personal comment on the inside of a lip balm container. The packaging is cute and reminds me of the Shiseido MAJOLICA MAJORCA Puff de Cheek Blush.
The lip balm is almost like a lip gloss. It is very glossy as you can see and shiny no pun intended. In the container the lip balm is a pretty opaque baby pink but the color does not really show once you swipe it. As you can see from the swatch there is a slight nude pink color but it doesn't show on my lips. It also smells like pink bubble gum tape.
Pros:
- Cute packaging and interesting concept with the product design
- If you are a Shinee fan you have to get it because you get their signature at the bottom, each color of lip balm corresponds to different member.
- Can be a lip gloss
Cons:
- Barely there color and pigmentation
- Feels somewhat heavy on the lips
I would get this if you want your favorite Shinee's signature. The lip gloss is okay and for this color it didn't really show up on my lips but who am I kidding get your favorite Shinee star's color! :p
Which color would you pick?
Thanks for reading!

Yes, they are shiny and I would say that this compares to a thick lipgloss that normally comes in tubes. They smell like bubble tape but I don't remember any taste. lol :D Thanks for checking out my blog!
