  Pros

  This is the very essence of a water-infused red. It's the ultimate water-infused red! Haha. Even when applied smoothly, there's not a single clump, and it instantly creates a perfectly water-infused, dewy, and shimmery red lip. And for a water-infused, dewy lip product, it adheres quite well to the lips. Compared to other dewy and glossy products, it has relatively less stickiness and transfer, though there is still some (but less than the really dewy ones). With this formula, to achieve that fully water-infused, glossy look, you'd need to layer it a few times, and doing so can make it prone to becoming too thick and clumpy. But this gives you that fully water-infused lip feel in just one application, with decent color payoff and staying power, and minimal clumping. There is some transfer, but it's relatively manageable compared to the super dewy and glossy ones. At this level of dewiness, most products would just slip and slide off with a light touch, but this one stays on reasonably well. The color is a pure, clear red. As a cool-toned person, this lip color works well with my cool-toned makeup, and it also complements warmer-toned looks that I can pull off. This is such a classic, clear red that it should suit most skin tones! And of course, it's incredibly hydrating. It feels even more moisturizing than a lip balm, haha. My lips feel comfortable and never dry out, even with the existing flakiness.

  Cons

  The longevity is not its strongest point, unfortunately. While it does a great job at delivering that incredibly dewy, water-infused lip look, as a hydrating lip product, the wear time is inevitably shorter. Eating a meal makes it feel like the lipstick has been eaten away, which is quite unpleasant. And even just walking around in the cold winter wind, I found it fading away quite a bit. However, it does leave some staining behind, so it doesn't disappear messily. The color doesn't just vanish completely, leaving a pale, washed-out look. It wears off cleanly, making it easy to just reapply on top. But the constant need to reapply due to the transfer and the slightly uncomfortable feeling of "eating" the lipstick is a bit of a hassle. For a beautiful lipstick like this that you want to carry around and reapply easily, the wear time is manageable. But coming from more long-wearing matte formulas, the frequent reapplication does become more noticeable. The price is quite high at 44,000 won. As a Chanel lipstick from a department store, that's to be expected. But comparing it to something like the Estée Lauder Double Wear lipstick, which has great performance at a similar price point, the value proposition becomes a bit questionable. The water-infused look is gorgeous, but the so-so longevity for the price is a bit of a letdown. But I suppose that's the trade-off for a hydrating, dewy lip product.

  Tip

  If you're looking for the ultimate water-infused red lip, this is definitely the one to go for! It's best to apply it a bit over the natural lip line, without being too precise about the edges - that gives a really nice, blurred, diffused effect. It creates a lovely, natural-looking overlining as well. I'd recommend keeping a small mirror with you and reapplying it as needed throughout the day. You won't even need a separate lip balm with this one!
