I had to quickly buy a replacement. These days, I've been crushing on Leehye-ri unnie (her name is Leehye-ri even when read backwards!), who is the Itskin model. So I wanted to buy the pencil-shaped tint, but couldn't get past the case design, so I ended up purchasing the Life Color Lip Crush Matte 3+1 set (shades 7, 9, and 18) online instead. I actually wrote the review for shade 7 back in May, but kept putting off the review for shade 9 until now. Shade 9 is, hmm... the chroma is slightly higher, but it has a dark red-brown(?) kind of feel. It looks like a great color for fall and winter, but it also has a brighter vibe, so it's a beautiful color for all seasons! It's a perfect match for warm-toned folks. Just by looking at it, you can tell it's a warm-toned color. But I think it would also suit cool-toned people well. When I swatched it on my wrist to check the color payoff, it went on smoothly and moisturingly at first, then dried down to a matte, seamless finish!! The same thing happens on the lips. I was so amazed. Even the areas where I applied a lot of product didn't stay glossy - it all dried down to a perfect matte, long-lasting finish. It's truly a powerful, adhering formula. Review - There was just a tiny(?) bit of a tingling sensation on my lips. It was less irritating than a mint candy, in my opinion. Sometimes I wonder if it's actually irritating, but when I apply it, it goes on smoothly and sets quickly, which I really like! You can see the swatches in the photos! (From top to bottom: shades 7, 9, 18) The 5th photo is unedited, and the 6th is edited, but it's mainly focused on shade 7, so just use that as a light reference. The colors in the edited photos are more accurate.
ConsI haven't tried it yet, but I'm expecting it to be extremely matte, which isn't necessarily a downside since it's originally a matte tint. And the color payoff is incredible - when I swatched it on my arm and tried to remove it with cleansing water, it was really stubborn and took some vigorous rubbing to get it off, which irritated the surrounding skin and made it turn red. But I guess that's to be expected from a tint with such long-lasting power. +After using it for a while, yes... it doesn't apply beautifully and can be tricky to remove. The color payoff lasts longer than expected, but not as long as I thought. The matte finish does emphasize any flakiness on the lips a bit... but I have lip balm to combat that! (Of course, the more lip balm I use, the less long-lasting the tint will be.)
TipIf you're finding this one to be incredibly drying and you're just looking for a slightly matte finish, I'd recommend skipping this and getting the Wakemake Mousse Tint instead. It has a velvety formula that glides on smoothly and seems to have even better longevity than this product. It's one of my holy grail items. I would repurchase it in a heartbeat, but I have this weird condition where I can't use the same product more than once... +Hmm... it works well whether you apply it lightly or more heavily. But if you don't like applying a lot, I'd recommend just lightly tapping it on and quickly patting it in. It gets so pigmented so fast that way!

The color payoff is decent, and the colors are vibrant.
ConsThe blending is poor, and it has a harsh feel. It starts off moisturizing but then becomes matte, which I don't like.

ConsI'm worried about using it for a long time after applying it, as it may cause skin irritation. I haven't been using it yet because I don't want to damage my lips if I use it incorrectly.

I bought it on sale for 7,700 won, which seems like a reasonable price.
ConsI won't use it again... When I applied it, there was a burning sensation, which people say is because of the plumping effect. So I just ignored it. The first time I used it, there were bumps around the edges of my lips, and since it's matte, I thought it was because of peeling skin. The second time I used it (yesterday), the edges of my lips and the surrounding skin were dry and itchy. This morning, I went to a dermatologist and they said it's an allergic skin rash, and it's getting worse over time. It seems like there's some ingredient that doesn't agree with me. Right now, the edges of my lips are dry, and especially my upper lip is swollen and itchy. I've never had any issues with color cosmetics before, and this is the first time I've tried a product from It's Skin, but it's really upsetting that my lips are so damaged. People with sensitive skin around the lips should be extra careful with this.

I tried to adjust the color as much as possible, but it didn't come out quite right. It's even darker!! The color is really pretty though♡ (It seems to get darker over time) *Lasting Power ☆☆☆☆ It seems to have better lasting power than I expected. But over time, the initial feel doesn't last, so I have to reapply, but I think the lasting power is still good! *Texture ☆☆☆☆ I heard it would be completely matte, but it's not!! My lips tend to get flaky and dry, but this applied without any discomfort. It's more like a watery? Texture, not as thick as I expected!
ConsThere's not much that I'm disappointed about. But when I first applied it, there was a slight stinging sensation on my lips.
Tip※This is not as matte a lip product as you might think!

When applied, it glides on very smoothly and has a bit of a sheen, but once it dries and sets, it becomes matte and has incredible staying power!! And while the color payoff is quite light, it doesn't budge easily, which was nice. The brown-red shade is just perfect and I really love it.
ConsThe main downside is that once it dries, it's very difficult to create a gradient effect, so you have to work quickly when applying. It also accentuates lip lines quite a bit. And while I'm not sure if everyone experiences this, when I put it on, the area around my lips would sting a little, which was a first for me compared to other tints. I also dislike how the cap gets so messy, so I have to be really careful when taking it out.
