It tends to settle into lines on my lips, so I prefer to apply it partially using a brush.

My first department store product received as an adult gift. My friend bought it duty-free, and I was thrilled just to receive it as a present. It's a lip product I use in autumn. It's not completely matte, making it comfortable to apply and wear on the lips.

앰플리파이드 립스틱 [브릭-오-라]

It might be a bit challenging to find in stores. Also, while it's not super hydrating, that actually contributes to its decent staying power, so I wouldn't consider it a major drawback!

The color payoff is absolutely gorgeous! I suspect it has a light undertone, and it's a perfect match when applied just to the inner part of the lips.

It's also fantastic as a cheek color! Perfect for when you want to add a light touch to your cheeks.

The color might be a bit too bold for a completely bare face. There's quite a difference between how it looks in photos and how it feels on your lips, so I'd strongly recommend testing it out before purchasing.

I've been using this since high school because it applies so naturally! The color isn't common, but it's absolutely gorgeous. It's definitely a shade you need to see in person to appreciate.

If you have some flaky skin on your lips, use it with a lip balm!

- I initially thought it wasn't too pink, but as I applied it, I realized it leans more towards a brick+pink rather than a true red...
- When used over lip balm, it doesn't stain well, which reduces its longevity

★A review I'm leaving to remember:
- Glides on smoothly and doesn't seem to emphasize dead skin cells too much.
- A classic warm-toned MLBB shade, perfect for everyday wear

It had a slightly whiter and more muted tone than I expected, so it wasn't a perfect match for my personal color. However, it looked decent when applied lightly.

It's a deep red bean soup-colored MLBB. I loved how smoothly it applied without emphasizing dead skin cells. It would suit those with deep undertones nicely.

It comes off too easily... I think it's because of the moisturizing formula.

The color and design are simply beautiful. You'll be satisfied if you buy it.

It seems to fade quickly, and I'm a bit concerned about the potentially harmful pigments used.

The natural shade complements my complexion beautifully, and it absorbs smoothly onto the skin.

- Given its formula, it's understandable that the staying power isn't great. However, it doesn't transfer to an annoying degree. I'm satisfied with this level of performance.

- I have a fair, pale complexion (not the radiant kind of fair) with cool winter undertones. While I personally find it very pretty, I'm not sure if it suits my skin tone. It has a warm undertone, so when I apply it fully, the contrast with my skin makes me look even paler, almost vampire-like. It might suit someone with a fair but slightly yellow-toned skin like my friend, or even someone with a darker complexion. From what I've heard, it's not exclusively for warm tones, but to me, it seemed a bit warm.

- A friend with a slightly yellowish and fair complexion tried this, and it looked amazing on her. She told me I'd love the color and that I should buy it too. Wow, it was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes.

- This isn't just a lipstick. When you dab it on bare skin or with minimal makeup, it gives you a beautiful, healthy glow. It's like they invented the term 'MLBB' (My Lips But Better) for this product.

- While it looks a bit bright in photos, in person it's a more subdued, muted shade.

- It's not particularly moisturizing, but it has a slight glow that makes it look beautifully dewy. So pretty!

- The scent isn't off-putting at all.

Try using C-Thru as a base and then lightly applying this lipstick just to the lower part of your lips for a more flattering color.

I bought this based on the promotional photos without testing it first, and unfortunately, it's too dark for my complexion (shade 25). It makes me look washed out, which was disappointing when I applied it. If you have darker skin, make sure to test it before purchasing.

As an Amplified Cream Lipstick, it's wonderfully moisturizing. My lips don't feel dry at all. I personally prefer hydrating lipsticks, so this one's a winner for me.

It's a bit sticky. In these times when we're wearing masks, it might feel a bit heavy on the skin.

The color payoff is absolutely gorgeous (a beautiful dried rose shade). The scent is so pleasant, I enjoy using it every time!

Everything about this lipstick is great, except for one thing - the staying power. Since it's more creamy than matte, it doesn't adhere as well to the lips. When drinking from a straw or cup, or while eating, it feels like you're consuming the lipstick along with your food or drink. If they could improve the longevity, it would be absolutely perfect! But even with this drawback, the color is so beautiful that I'm willing to keep using it despite the lack of staying power - that's the real charm of this product!

This MLBB shade is a subtle nude with a hint of brick-toned dried rose! The color payoff is fantastic, and it glides on so smoothly. I'm so proud of myself for choosing this shade - it was such a great pick! I'm already running low and can't wait to repurchase it. For reference, I have a 23 shade with dull, yellowish skin. If you have a similar complexion, I highly recommend giving this a try!
