The marble case has that 'cool' factor, as they say. Color I'm a warm-toned 23 (lots of yellow undertones), and the color really suits me!! On the first day of wearing this, I got a lot of compliments from people around me on how nice my lip color looked. It brightens up my somewhat sallow complexion. For those with lighter skin or cool undertones, hmm... I'm not sure how it would look. +) The color is really luxurious! Longevity Even though it's a lipstick, it has the longevity of a tint. (It has the longevity of the best tints) Of course, that's just for my lips, but it should have good longevity for others as well! Scent It has a floral and herbal scent. I'm not sure if this scent only lasts at the beginning or if it continues. UV Protection & Manufacturer It has UV protection ingredients, so it provides sun protection too. And the manufacturer is Kolmar Korea, a brand I trust. Kolmar is famous for their base makeup, but their color cosmetics seem great too~
ConsSince it's a lipstick, it's a bit drying. :( Since I can't apply lip balm over it, I lightly apply lip balm first and then this lipstick on top. If I just wear this product without keeping my lips moisturized, my lips feel like a desert!
TipPatting it on multiple times helps it adhere really well to the lips (almost like patting on a cushion foundation).

Pigmentation The color itself comes out from the lipstick. This means the pigmentation is extremely good. Without using any tools, the moment you apply the lipstick directly to your lips, the color immediately appears. 2. Fragrance It's moderate. As someone sensitive to fragrances, I would have preferred if there was no fragrance, but it wasn't significantly bothersome. 3. Longevity The fact that it wears off with food consumption is inevitable given the nature of lipstick as a product. There is also a bit of transfer. However, when I checked to reapply, it wasn't as messy as I had expected. Sometimes you see lipstick products where after they wear off, your lips are left looking dirty and splotchy. That's really unpleasant to look at. But that wasn't the case with this, which I really appreciated. 4. UV Protection Well, this is something that's obviously good to have, isn't it? 5. Matte Finish The matte finish is something that people may have different preferences on, but I personally like it. I dislike the glossy look so much that I almost never buy lip glosses. However, even though this is matte, it doesn't have that stuck-on-the-lips feeling that some products have, which I found quite pleasant.
Cons1. Slight Dryness This seems to be a case-by-case thing. With matte lipsticks, a certain degree of dryness is probably inevitable. If that's undesirable, using a lip balm or having that kind of foresight would be a good idea. 2. Tone I have very fair, pinkish-white skin, while my mom has more yellowish-white skin. When my mom applied it all over, it looked kind of like a fluorescent pink. When I applied it, it seemed to tone down a bit. This is something that needs to be adjusted based on one's own skin tone. Mixing it with other colors or doing a gradation application could be ways to address this.
TipIf the tone doesn't match my skin, I usually use these methods: First, I apply a color that suits my skin tone or a very light lipstick around the lip edges, and then in the inner center part, I apply a lipstick that is pretty but doesn't quite match my skin. Also, the way you use tools with lipsticks can make a big difference. Whether it's your fingers, a brush, or directly from the tube. My personal favorite is using a brush, because it makes adjusting the coverage and color easier, and allows for both full-lip and gradient application. If the product has weak pigmentation, it can be frustrating to build up with a brush, but that wasn't an issue with this one at all.

(I usually wear shades 22-23 in warm tones) It's a calm and toned-down pink color, but it's the perfect MLBB (My Lips But Better) lipstick for fall! With Adele, if you dab it on in a gradation rather than a full lip, it creates a delicate, watercolor-like effect, so I recommend applying it in a gradation. I think those with warm undertones who don't usually go for pink shades will discover a whole new world with Adele. It's really gorgeous, haha. I really like that it's not completely matte, but has a nice semi-matte finish. It's been a while since I've found a lipstick I really love this much, so I'm in a great mood about it ❤️
ConsAs for the longevity, since it's not super matte, there is some transfer, which is unavoidable.
TipLet me say it again - apply it in a gradation! If you layer it on thickly, the color saturation will increase, which is also pretty, but I think applying it lightly in a gradation, slightly outside the lip line, looks the nicest with this lipstick^^

It doesn't shine too much, but it applies smoothly and the color payoff is amazing. This is a 0-second color payoff lipstick just like the new Clio lipsticks. The shade is a warm-toned, adhering coral color that looks natural. As a cool-toned person in the winter, I don't use it every day, but it works well for warm, cozy makeup looks!! The marble-like case that seems to have been carefully designed is a bonus! It's pretty☺️ It's not matte or sticky, so it's easy to use without any burden.
ConsThere's a bit of peeling of the flaky skin... ㅠㅡㅠ I have dry skin, so I get flaky skin during the seasonal changes, but if I take good care of my lips and use it, it'll look nice. Other than that, it's a product without any particular downsides~~

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.Pros1 The case is.. It looks high-end, elegant, and the rare marble design is eye-catching. In simple terms, it looks expensive. 2 The color payoff and application are good. It applies smoothly and evenly. Even though it's not a lip balm, the level of application is impressive for a lipstick. The color payoff is immediate upon application. 3 It has a moisturizing, glossy finish. It's not completely matte, but for those who don't want a fully matte look, this is likely a preferred type of lipstick. 4 The most important part is the color 😍 I absolutely adore the dried rose color. This dried rose color is versatile, suitable for any season or skin tone. It makes the face look radiant and luminous. On fair skin, it looks youthful and bright, while on olive skin, it has a slight fluorescent undertone that makes it look sexy. In spring and summer, it looks so fresh and I'll likely reach for it often. It will also work well in fall and winter as an everyday go-to shade. 5 It has great UV protection effect ㅋ 😚
Cons1 It transfers and smears ㅋㅋ Being a glossy, moisturizing type, this is somewhat unavoidable. 2 The price range In terms of quantity, it's a bit expensive. But when you think about it, not many people use up a lipstick completely, so it's not too bad. When buying cosmetics, I'd rather spend a bit more on something I really want and feel good using, rather than settling for something mediocre just to save money. That way, I can feel happy and cherish using it every time. 3 I really like the dried rose color. I've tried various shades, and personally, I could do without the orange-y fluorescent undertone. I'm not a big fan of orange shades, they don't suit me >< If I hadn't received this as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, I might have hesitated a bit more before purchasing this color. It's about 90% pink, 10% orange? Those who like it will love it, and I don't dislike it either.
TipMy phone was showing a darker color, so I tried to take the most accurate shot possible. The color is closer after some editing. 😚Just lightly dab and tap it a few times with your finger or a cotton bud to create a gradient effect. It looks so pretty that way, and never looks overdone or unflattering, no matter who applies it. 😚Filling it in thoroughly and adding a few extra layers results in a polished, well-executed makeup look. I personally prefer the gradient, lightly applied look, as I find it more attractive.

This product, in comparison, has a slightly thicker and softer, comforting weight that helps tamp down the shiny effect of the lip balm and somewhat conceal the lip cracks caused by my habit of picking at them. And since I still need lip balm in the fall, this works well with it, being less irritating on my already dry lips. I can reapply it often as a clean, daily lip product that pairs nicely with the lip balm.
ConsWhen applying the product directly to the lips, it builds up slightly thicker. When rubbing it in with my fingertips, it applies with a rich, melted chocolate-like sensorial experience. On the lips, it has an opaque, hazy texture, almost like a mineral sunscreen. So the adhesion isn't a super thin, magnetic-like cling. But after blotting it on a tissue, the heavy, thick feeling goes away. It's not a trendy or special color, just a versatile daily shade. I have less than 7 lipsticks, and 2 similar colors already. Looking at the color alone, it's not too seasonal or dependent on skin tone, outfit, or location - it's just my personal preference. As a spring-warm person, this MLBB shade works great for autumn, being polished and refined without being too dull. There are subtle hints of yellow, white, and fluorescent tones, so it may not be the best fit for summer-cool complexions. But as a spring-yellow person, it's perfect for me. :) It doesn't emphasize flakiness, but doesn't hide it either. The longevity is about average. No staining. Not matte or dewy. The amount per application feels a bit less than other lipsticks. But I've never actually finished a whole lipstick before, so haha, no complaints.
Tip1. Before application. 2. Comparison with the lipstick I already own that is most similar to Adel (left). The colors are almost the same, but the textures differ. The one on the right is Adel. 3. After wiping with a wet wipe, the staining. 4. Check the shine and fingerprint marks. The color came out a bit more orange-toned. 5. The texture of the lipstick surface after use. 6. Color payoff on the lips (applied by dabbing and spreading with my fingertips) Taken with a Galaxy S7 edge. This camera seems to capture things a bit more yellow-toned than reality.

And the color payoff... It really applies evenly. You could say it applies flawlessly, as it instantly shows up just by lightly applying it ㅋㅋㅋㅋ The color is a coral orange. It's a perfect match for warm-toned skin!! ㅎㅎ It seems like a great color to wear in spring and fall. It makes my face look bright and radiant, so I apply it often~😊 The lip product also has decent ingredients, and it has UV protection, which is great! It seems like it would help with lip wrinkles and discoloration.
ConsI was really surprised that the actual color was so different from the tube color!!! I thought it was a dried rose color and applied it happily, only to find out it was a coral orange, which really caught me off guard ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ And instead of applying smoothly, it's a bit stiff. The color payoff is good, but since it's not a creamy formula, you have to apply it carefully along the lip line to make it look nice! ㅎㅎ And it lacks moisture, so it dries out my lips. ㅠㅠ Because it emphasizes flakiness, you'll need to exfoliate your lips well before applying. And as you can see in the third photo, the amount is really small??ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's with the tube fully twisted up, but it's so short!! It's not even a cheap product, it's almost the same price as a MAC lipstick...ㅎㅎ So the value for money isn't great ㅠ
