My sister's friend went to HK over the summer and picked up some Etude House products for us. After watching Pony's videos using the Play 101 pencils I had to get some for myself. I got 15, 20, and 26.
5 is a light coral orange, 20 is a bright hot pink, and 26 is a slightly darker rose-like pink with sparkles. All the pencils have a great creamy consistency. Once dry they are very smudgeproof, but I did see very slight fading (not so much smudging) under water if you rub them.
Swaths below! Unfortunately the picture does not do #26 much justice.

I find that these colors are a little hard to work with if you're trying to blend them out as shadows, so I think they're best used on the lips. Overall, they have great pigmentation and texture, not to mention they're so much more affordable than many mid-range brands with similar products.
Speaking of lips, I got the Fresh Cherry Tint in Cherry Hot Pink and I love it. I hate sticky glosses or any kind of heavy feeling on my lips, but this tint is very light and moisturizing. At first I thought the tint looked too light in the bottle to effectively tint my lips a nice pink, but I was pleasantly surprised. I find that 1 or 2 coats is enough color for me.
Lasting power is also incredibly impressive. I do my makeup in the morning before I go to work and I don't have to reapply for the whole day. Of course my lips fade slightly but they still remain a nice natural-looking pink by the end of the day.
