  1. 01

    Verify the region and actual label

    ETUDE Korea displays nine shades from 01 Plum Jam to 09 Cherry Ribbon, global ETUDE displays 01-07, and ETUDE Japan names 08 Pink Frill. Read the actual package and local listing before choosing.

  2. 02

    Prepare clean lips and applicator

    Wash hands and avoid broken or inflamed lips. Do not share the tip. Check the full ingredient label for your exact shade and region if sensitive.

  3. 03

    Apply a little from the center

    ETUDE Japan instructs users to put an appropriate amount on the tip and spread from the center across the lips. Begin lightly.

  4. 04

    Spread evenly without assuming a tested effect

    Add a little if desired. Manufacturer moisturizing claims are not our own wear test, medical evidence or a guarantee for every wearer.

  5. 05

    Understand gifted content and store properly

    Yoo True's November 2025 video discloses gifted items without a required review. It does not validate all current regional shades. Close the cap, avoid heat and direct sun, and stop if irritated.

✦ Helpful tips

  • Do not assume Korean 08 Pink Lace equals Japanese 08 Pink Frill.
  • Japan's offline-only shade 08 note is local, not global.
  • Stock, ingredients and prices vary by region and date.

ⓘ Keep in mind

  • Stop if itching, swelling or rash develops; seek care for serious or persistent symptoms.
  • Do not share lip applicators or use them on injured lips.
