It applies well and is suitable for those who prefer a lighter makeup look, so I would recommend it.
ConsIt feels a bit dry, so I apply it with a lip balm. Those who prefer a matte finish might like it, though!

This product has definitely made me say that. Although it's been a while since I bought it, I'll try to promote it a bit... 1. Color I've encountered countless Marsala colors, but this is the first time I've seen such a beautiful Marsala. It's a perfect Marsala - the right saturation, not too dull, not too bright, and not too pink either. The gradation and the finish are just right, and the color isn't too impactful, so it's not burdensome to apply. Personally, I strongly recommend this as an introduction to the Marsala color. The tone doesn't change much, and the mood can drastically change depending on the styling. This product has made me realize that Marsala can also be innocent-looking. There's a reason why this is considered the best color. 2. Application The formula is lightweight and has good adherence, with a powdery texture. It feels soft and velvety both during and after application. Despite the lightweight feel, the color payoff and longevity are quite reliable, making it a great value-for-money lipstick. The formula is not too thin, nor too thick or sticky. It has a nice semi-matte finish. The longevity is not bad at all. 3. Ingredients Considering it's a color cosmetic product, the ingredients are not bad. I haven't heard of anyone complaining about any issues after using this lipstick. Many brands tend to pack all sorts of ingredients to achieve intense color payoff, but this one has found a good balance between the ingredients, color, and formula.
ConsLip exfoliation is a must As someone who believes that dryness is a characteristic, not a flaw, of matte to semi-matte products, I don't feel the need to emphasize this too much, as it's a rather obvious point. However, for those of you who dream of matte lips and struggle with lip flakiness, I'd like to say that "it should be fine since it's semi-matte." For those with dry lips, whether before or after application, lip balm is a must. Since this is not a hydrating product, if you apply it without lip balm, the application and longevity may improve, but flakiness will start to appear from the inner lips. It's less pronounced than fully matte lip products, but it's unavoidable, as this is a matte lip product...ㅠㅠ
TipPersonally, I think the Merzy lip product line has better performance in terms of value for money compared to their tints. The color is amazing, but the texture is the best part. Merzy's lip colors have expanded to almost 20 shades with the latest "You" series, so I'd recommend it to those who want to try something new casually. I suggest testing the testers at Olive Young and purchasing them online through platforms like Memebox or the official website. The delivery service from the Merzy official website is particularly impressive, as they even send a video of the product packaging. They also often sell the products at discounted prices on their website, so it's best to keep an eye out for sales. The beautiful red color is versatile and can be worn alone or in a two-tone look with other lip colors. If you're wearing it solo, I'd recommend going for a full-lip application.

ConsAlthough the lipstick is matte, it feels moisturizing when applied, but I'm not sure because my lips still tend to flake a lot since they are prone to dryness.
TipLip balm seems to be a must-have for me.
