Pros
It applies creamily and well. It used to look a bit aged when I wore it before, but now it suits me well haha It's a calm color, so it's the color that I reach for the most often as a daily look in the fall. It also has a subtle tint!! The scent is nice and it's a pretty MLBB shade, so I highly recommend it~
Cons
I couldn't find any disappointing points. If I had to pick one, it would be transfer..?
Tip
I'll show you a comparison photo with the Yves Saint Laurent Water Tint in shade 617!

Pros
❣Please refer to the photos for the color tone of this product!❣ -It has a more nude, brown tone compared to the photos- I really love muted lipsticks, so I purchased this, and it seems to be a perfect match for the warm tones of autumn. 💥Warm tones💥. In fact, I have a somewhat neutral skin tone, so when I wear this lipstick, my face looks a bit dull, but I've had it for quite a while and it's still in great condition. I recommend testing it out in the store before purchasing. What I liked about this product is that it's a creamy type, so I could apply it without emphasizing any lip flakes. It also 💥moisturizes💥 well. And when applied on the lips, the color doesn't look too intense, making it look very natural. The price is not as evil as Yves Saint Laurent or Tom Ford, haha! Collecting the bullet cases is quite fun...
Cons
While the creamy type allows for application without emphasizing lip flakes, it also means the longevity is not as great. 😢 Of course, it's gone after eating. But it does transfer a bit when drinking coffee or doing other activities.-_- It's not a color that really brightens up the face. It's just a subtle, muted shade.
Tip
Keep an eye out for duty-free opportunities and various discount benefits! Pair it with a natural, understated look!

Pros
This is a great product for expressing moist lips in the winter! Personally, I prefer muted and calm colors, and the low saturation makes it comfortable to wear daily without feeling burdened. Moreover, it applies so smoothly and moisturizes well, making it perfect for winter wear.
Cons
The longevity is quite disappointing ㅜㅠㅜ The lipstick is moisturizing and has good color payoff, but the longevity is just too short! And it transfers way too much.. It's as if my actual lips, not the lipstick, are leaving marks on the cup. The transferring is inevitable due to the moisturizing formula, but the lack of longevity and excessive transferring make it hard to justify the price, even though the color is really pretty.

Pros
It never breaks, not even when dropped at high temperatures. It has never melted in Malaysia either. It doesn't accentuate lip flakes even when applied directly, and the color fades when applied over lip balm. There were no allergic reactions. It looks extremely natural.
Cons
It does transfer to cups right after application, but 70% of it disappears by the time you finish a meal.
Tip
You can just slap it on without any issues. It doesn't emphasize lip flakes at all.

Pros
The color payoff is great, and it doesn't feel sticky between the lips! It's quite moisturizing too~ And the color seems to never get old, no matter when you apply it.
Cons
Well, if you eat something, it tends to transfer a lot.

Pros
Hello Hwahae Trial Reviewers! This way! 1. Color: The color is a toned-down pink with a hint of plum and a very slight gray undertone. There is a very fine shimmer, but you can barely feel the shimmer when applied to the lips. In my case, the color was a bit more lively than my natural lip color. For those with reddish lips, it might be a bit darker than your natural lip color. It's not an exceptionally unique color, so you can find similar shades elsewhere. In the photos, it looked almost identical to Revlon's Berry Rich, but Berry Rich has a slightly higher brightness. 2. Transparency: The pigmentation is not as transparent as Volupté Shine, but just a regular lipstick! It applies a bit more translucent than the classic MAC Matte Lipsticks. One swipe can adequately express the original color. 3. Texture and Flakiness: As part of the Amplified line, it's much more moisturizing than Chili. However, that doesn't mean it's more moisturizing than regular lipsticks in general. When I poked it with my front teeth, the lipstick got a bit smudged, which was a little disappointing. The very firm matte lipsticks were able to withstand the front tooth attack better. There is almost no visible flakiness. No separate exfoliation was needed, and there is no drying sensation when applied. 4. Longevity: I've been using Revlon's Berry Rich color a lot recently, but the longevity was extremely poor. However, despite having a similar formula to Berry Rich, the longevity of Brick-O is better. Of course, it's still nowhere near the longevity of matte lipsticks. After a meal, a slight outline appears on the inner lip membrane. 5. Ingredients: Are there any of you who don't get along with Red 201 in lipsticks or tints? That's the case for me. In other products, as soon as Red 201 is included, my lips start peeling. But strangely, the Red 201 in MAC lipsticks was fine for me. If you're worried about Red 201, you might want to give this a try.
Cons
1. The disappointing aspect is indeed the longevity, as expected. However, it seems a bit unreasonable to demand long-lasting wear from a relatively moisturizing formula, so I'm satisfied and will continue using it. ㅜㅜ ★★If you don't need the moisturizing formula and are looking for a toned-down pink with amazing longevity, quickly click the 'Back' button and head over to check out the Peripera Ink Tude!★★ 2. There is a bit of transfer. It leaves marks on cups. 3. The packaging was nice at first, but with multiple shades, it's hard to differentiate them. It would be great if they could at least print the color on the bottom. Every morning, I end up frowning as I have to flip it over and squint at the tiny text to see the color.
Tip
The color is similar to Berry Rich. If you don't want to go all the way to the department store to test the colors, you can just go to the Olive Young store and try on the Revlon Berry Rich - it should be a good match. Berry Rich is a bit brighter. In the photo below, the order is Berry Rich, Brick-O, and Chili. When swatched on the hand, there is a slight difference from Berry Rich, but once applied on the lips, the difference is indistinguishable.
