The fragrance is absolutely delightful - a sweet vanilla or chocolate scent. I'm absolutely in love with the color payoff too! If you have cool undertones, this is a must-buy. Especially for those with fair skin among the cool-toned folks - it makes your face look even brighter and more radiant. It'll give you that fresh, lively look. I think even those with warm undertones would look lovely wearing this!
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet. The color payoff and staying power are both fantastic!

The color suits cool skin tones, and the pigmentation is close to a true red. It's a unique shade of red that's hard to find from other brands. Lasts at least 2-3 hours without touching up. The color applies well even with light tapping, so be careful not to stain clothes or other surfaces. The bullet-shaped case is pretty and looks chic sitting on your desk after application.
ConsAs it's a matte lipstick, it can be drying, so you might need a lip balm when applying. It's on the pricier side and rarely goes on sale.
TipA matte, classic red lipstick. It's not a bright, vivid red, but more of a muted, lower-saturation red. Since it's a matte formula, it's best to exfoliate your lips, apply lip balm, and then put on the lipstick for the best results.

ConsThe red color is versatile and easy to use. I didn't find any drawbacks while using it.

It's a pink-red hue with a hint of light fuchsia, reminiscent of crushed azaleas with a splash of wine. The retro matte texture, similar to a crayon, provides incredibly intense color payoff. Just a few dabs are enough for amazing pigmentation! While it's actually best suited for cool winter skin tones, I stubbornly rock it with a gradient look despite my warm summer complexion.
ConsAlthough this matte lipstick adheres well to the lips and has great staying power, it does tend to dry out the lips quite a bit. It's a bit disappointing that you can only wear it when your lips are in top condition.

And it turns out to be a perfect match, I'm loving it! It's slightly matte, but since it's meant to be a matte product, I didn't mind much. The color payoff is absolutely gorgeous! It's truly a beautiful pink-red! There's a bit more pink, but it was just right for me. As a Summer Cool Bright, it looks stunning when applied boldly, but I think even Light tones could use it beautifully with a lighter application!
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about it! Given how matte it is, the color payoff is great, so I can't really say there's anything to complain about!
TipHere's a lip care tip... If you apply a thick layer of Vaseline before bed, in the morning your dead skin cells will be softened and can be easily removed without pain, leaving your lips smooth! Also, if you apply Vaseline while doing your makeup, your lips will feel amazing! Afterwards, you can either wipe off the Vaseline or apply this color directly over it for a vibrant color payoff and moisturized lips.

ConsThere's not really anything to complain about, but I think it might suit cool-toned complexions better than warm ones.

The pigmentation is so intense that you can choose to blend it out towards your lip line or go bold. When applied meticulously, it gives a slightly deeper hue that's just stunningly beautiful. It's a shade that can liven up even a bare face, making your complexion look more even and clean. Just apply this lip color and throw on a black outfit - it's a match made in heaven! The Retro Matte finish gives you that perfect powdery matte look. While it feels desert-dry during application, the end result is a velvety matte (provided you've properly moisturized your lips!). It's similar to the feeling you get after blotting a MAC matte lipstick with a tissue. As for staying power, the Retro Matte formula is unbeatable in the MAC lipstick range. While it's not completely transfer-proof, it adheres to your lips instantly without any slipping, providing stable, long-lasting wear.
ConsThe application can feel as dry as a desert. The Retro Matte formula is quite stiff - it's almost like coloring with a crayon on sandpaper. You need to dab it on multiple times, almost like pointillism, to get an even application.
TipMoisturize, moisturize, and moisturize some more!

As it's famous for being a cool-toned lipstick, it's truly perfect for those with cool undertones. -Application- It has a very matte, powder-like finish. There's a slight drag when applying, so those who prefer smooth, gliding lip products might want to pass on this one. -Color Payoff- Wow... The color payoff is incredible! The shade appears on your lips exactly as it looks in the tube, and it's just... gorgeous. The color applies beautifully and true to tone. -Staining- Hmm, the staining power isn't particularly remarkable. -Longevity- The staying power isn't exceptionally impressive either. Despite not having outstanding longevity or staining power, what I really loved about this lipstick is how it seems to meld with your lips when applied. The color payoff is truly phenomenal! If you have a cool complexion, you absolutely must try this! You won't regret it. Especially for those with summer cool tones, this is a must-have. When you wear it in summer, you'll achieve that perfect dewy glow! As someone with a cool complexion, I found this lip product extremely satisfying.
ConsAs mentioned earlier, the staining and longevity aren't exceptional. But that's somewhat expected with lipsticks.
TipSince it's a bit dry when applying, you might want to use a slightly moisturizing base, or apply lip balm before the lipstick, then blot it off before application.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsColor: Soft to medium-strong cool tones, but with a subtle yellow undertone to the pink that's not quite classic cool. Texture: Matte with a noticeable powder-like feel, reminiscent of a crayon. Packed with pigment, it applies well and leaves a pleasantly smooth finish. The color payoff is great, and the velvety application is satisfying.
ConsHowever, it lacks staying power due to poor adherence, and doesn't particularly enhance the lips' appearance. It makes you wonder if it's worth spending $30 on this instead of opting for a drugstore brand. While the color is somewhat unique, it's not bad enough to discourage purchase entirely. Overall, I'd say it's just average.
TipUsing the same brand's lip primer helps alleviate the dry, clumpy feeling.

I always thought my skin was yellowish and dull, but when I applied this lipstick, it made my whole complexion look much brighter!
ConsFor the best longevity and prettiest look, you need to apply it on lips completely free of dead skin cells! Since it's matte, if you apply it in a rush, it can go on quite unevenly.
