Heaven and
-02.23.13
I tried calling my review heaven & he1l, but he1l was blocked - that may be overly dramatic, but the lip butter is truly heavenly in texture & scent, and the cheek butter is quite thick - still getting used to its application. I can't tell if my cheeks are colored from the product or attempting to rub in the product, so I try patting it on first then blending, that seems to help. Overall worth the set price.

Really natural looking
-01.18.13
Quick Take: good value
The Cheek Butter is one of the hardest to apply blushes that I have ever owned. It also is the most natural looking and really worth the effort. Very good for "mature" skin like mine. I love all the lip butters. The colors are very subtle. I have dark hair, but my skin, eyes and lips are all very pale. You will love this set if you like a polished, natural look.

Great Hydrating Blush
-01.17.13
I have never tried any Korres products until this one. I wanted a nice hydrating blush for my dry skin and this one is perfect. It's a lovely color, easily buidable, and makes my cheeks feel amazing. So glad I took a chance on this product.
As for the lip butter, it's not a color that can stand on it's own. It's sheer and really moisturizing. I use this as a base for my natural lipstick colors.

pretty good set!
-01.10.13
I purchased this because I really wanted the lip butter in this shade which I love...The only thing is that I wished the cheek butter lasted a bit longer because I find myself applying it later in the day. Cute design though!

definitely buttery!
-12.28.12
Quick Take: good value, creamy
i love this set. the lip butter is the most incredible consistency, and makes my lips feel really soft + moisturized. not sticky at all, which is the problem i have with a lot of lip products. the jasmine color took some getting used to (it's a sheer pink that almost heads toward nude on me) but it goes really well with the cheek butter.
i'm really into cream blushes, especially in winter because my skin gets so dry. i usually use nars cactus flower, but i was getting sick of the glitter in it. this one gives me a similar color, but without the glitter and slightly more peachy. love it! makes me look warm even when i'm freezing!

Good cheek product
-12.23.12
Quick Take: good value
I bought this because I was curious about Korres products and I thought it was a good deal getting the lip butter and cheek butter for the same price as the normal cheek butter. I LOVE the cheek butter...it just gives a natural rosy glow that looks beautiful and lasts. I didn't have any problems applying this or blending it. I will definitely purchase this again. The product I was disappointed in was the lip butter. I had read a lot of good reviews on it but I didn't feel that it was an outstanding amount of lip moisture. There is almost no color added. I will say though that this lip product is unique in that it seems to sink into your lips and treat them rather than sitting on the top of the lip and then wearing off like I find most chap sticks do. Over-all I'm happy with this purchase for the cheek butter and I may grow to like the lip butter more...as it was free with the purchase I don't really mind.

This set is a great deal considering the blush itself is $25, so basically you are getting the lip butter for free! The blush is a pretty nude-y pink, but the texture is a little drier than other cream blushes I've tried. You need to warm it up a bit with your fingers first. The lip butter in Jasmine is also pretty nude and without a lot of color payoff. I thought it would smell like tea, but it smells like cookies!

-12.18.12
The cheek butter is a beautiful color and goes on smooth, it's not sticky at all and lasts for a long time! The lip butter is the best lip product I've ever owned to be honest! It feels amazing and leaves your lips moist, I use it before I put on darker gloss of lipstick

Little to no color.
-11.29.12
While the formulas seem nice (I have both products in other colors), this shade just missed the mark. The blush is extremely sheer and unless you have VERY fair or VERY dark skin it just does not leave any color whatsoever. The lip butter looked grey on the lip. I returned it.

Nice set. I do wish the lip butter had more pigment but it's nice to use just as a lip conditioner. Very hydrating. And the cheek butter gives a very natural glow.

Quick Take: good value, perfect
So I bought a few cheek stain kind of products as it is getting to be wintry in my neck of the woods. Love this cheek butter. Didn't expect it to be so pigmented! Feels so good on the cheeks and easy to blend. Also love the lip butter. I don't mind that there is no color as I usually put it on at night or before my lipstick. These are my secret weapon for this seemingly chilly winter we have in store this year. Awesome products. Definitely will have to look into all of their other products!!

I absolutely LOVE this set... It's just enough color for the cheeks and lips. I think I should reorder before this set runs out.

Great Value
-08.09.12
Quick Take: good value
I've been wanting to try the cheek butters and this set is a great deal because you're basically getting a lip butter for free.
The Philia Rose cheek butter is a very pretty natural, pinky brown shade. It's quite sheer, but you can definitely build up the color. The formula is cream (NOT cream to powder) so although it dries down, your cheeks do remain just the tiniest bit sticky/tacky. I personally don't really mind too much as the overall look is quite matte and not glossy.
The Jasmine lip butter is also one I've been wanting for a while. It's a nude pink and tastes a little like cookies. The color payoff isn't as strong as I've gotten from some of the other shades (ie, mango and pomegranate), but I think it looks awesome paired with the blush for a natural day time look.

great blush, so-so lip color
-06.28.12
All I really wanted was the blush, but this gift set was pretty close to the same price as the blush alone, so I got this instead. I'm really pleased with the blush. It's a beautiful color, very natural, and it really stays in place all day. The only downside is that the texture is a little bit tacky, which makes it tricky to blend sometimes. Still very happy with it. The lip gloss was a very nice formulation and the color is beautiful, but the very pale color made my already very pale face look even more corpse-y than usual. Not flattering on me at all, so I gave it to a friend, and use the blush all the time!

I was excited to try this set until I did. The balm is very nice but the cheek creme is terrible. Looks greasy on and doesnt blend at all. I returned this

This is the first time that I've tried Korres' cult classic lip balm. The balm is incredible and well worth the money - no need for nude lipgloss or lipstick - the balm gives a perfect, natural look.
I wasn't too impressed wiht the cheek butter, however. The color, though pretty, was intense and the formula was difficult to blend. I've used much better cheek stains/ cream blushes. It looks great on lips though!
Overall, I think it is a decent value because the lip butter itself is expensive. Pretty packaging - would make a good gift.
