I even had to use a lip brush to get the last bits out when it wouldn't twist up anymore. I also bought Red Chili, but it was too orange and intense for me, so I barely used it and stuck with this one instead. 1. Affordable 2. Gorgeous color. It's a soft red with just a hint of white, not too bold or bright, making it perfect for daily wear. It gives a healthy, sophisticated look. After always wearing bright red lipsticks, when I tried this one, my friend immediately noticed and complimented the beautiful new color. 3. Glides on smoothly and has a matte finish, so it doesn't stick to your hair
Cons1. Being matte, it can emphasize dead skin cells when your lips are dry. Make sure to exfoliate and moisturize well. 2. As you use it, small particles tend to form on the lipstick surface, which can fall out of the case and make it messy. Sometimes these tiny lipstick granules or powder-like clumps would even stick to my lips. I kept using it because I loved the color, despite this issue. While the first point is common for most matte lipsticks, the second drawback is why I'm deducting one star. If it weren't for the clumping issue, it would be a perfect 5-star product
TipI use shade 21. If you typically wear shade 23, this color might not suit you well. Keep that in mind when choosing

It's my first time trying Tony Moly's color cosmetics, and it exceeded my expectations. It's not a bright red, but rather a subdued, muted dusty rose shade.
ConsAfter multiple applications, the lipstick tends to clump a bit. As time passes, it becomes quite drying.
Tip1. Given its matte nature, it may accentuate lip lines and dead skin cells. For best results, apply a generous amount of lip balm before makeup, then gently blot with a tissue just before applying the lipstick. 2. I tried gently rubbing the lipstick with my finger and applying it to my lips - this method resulted in a much more natural color and almost no clumping.

It's a toned-down red with a slight brown undertone. Perfect for daily wear during fall and winter!
ConsThe application is a disaster. It severely emphasizes dead skin cells and applies patchily. Worse yet, after application, you can see indentations where it clings to dry patches. If you struggle with managing dry, flaky lips, you might want to steer clear of this one.
TipThis is especially important during dry seasons or for those with naturally dry skin - always prep your lips thoroughly before application. Applying a lip balm as a base significantly improves how smoothly it goes on.

It applies smoothly with a nice matte finish that's not too drying.
ConsIt tends to clump if you just swipe it on. The color is too close to my natural lip color, which is disappointing. It might work better for those with a lighter complexion.
TipInstead of swiping, try patting it on gently to avoid clumping.

The Rose Marsala shade with its deep undertone is absolutely perfect to use. Of course, forget about your skin tone - if you find a color pretty and you love it, just go ahead and wear it without hesitation!
ConsWell, I fell in love with Red Chili, so I bought Rose Marsala too, but it really didn't suit me at all, so I gave it to a friend. Even though they're both autumn shades, it just doesn't work for me. If pink usually doesn't flatter your face, definitely test this one first. For someone with deep warm undertones like me... (shaking my head). Oh, and it's really hard to apply beautifully. While it doesn't emphasize dead skin cells too badly, it does pill slightly and clump together when applied.
TipBoth Red Chili and this one appear slightly brighter and more vibrant on my lips compared to the tube color. I noticed it applies true to color on my friend, so it really seems to vary from person to person. Please, please make sure to test it out first!

I'm a bit puzzled by how the quality is so good despite the very affordable price (maybe the basic packaging allows for this?). It's matte, so it has good staying power. The biggest advantage is that it's a natural MLBB shade you can wear often. It's a soft rose color.
ConsBe cautious of benzyl alcohol. It applies with a very slight clumping. In terms of smooth application: Red Chili > Rose Marsala > Nude Lady. The redder shades apply more smoothly with less clumping. As you apply, the lipstick tends to retract into the tube. The case feels a bit unstable.

When applied, it gives a subtle, natural look that enhances your complexion without appearing like you're wearing makeup. Everyone around me has asked what I'm using at least once. Personally, I found the scent quite pleasant too.
ConsThe matte finish can be a bit challenging... It tends to accentuate dead skin cells and can pill slightly when touching up makeup.
TipI recommend patting it on instead of just swiping. Alternatively, you can wipe your face with a cleansing wipe before application to prevent pilling!

Unlike Nars Dolce Vita, which barely shows up and can make you look like a tough girl if you layer it on too much, this one suits me perfectly. Even with my darker, yellowish complexion, it doesn't look out of place. It's truly natural and beautiful.
ConsIt's matte, so applying it directly can cause patchiness. You need to apply lip balm first, then the lipstick.
TipApply it over lip balm, and after application, gently blot with a tissue. This creates a beautiful matte lip look.

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.ProsI find this color really suits me (I'm not quite a winter cool tone, but I'm on the fair side so very red lips look great on me). It's matte, but since I always apply lip balm first regardless of whether I'm using a tint or gloss, I can't really tell if it's too dry. I prioritize longevity, and this one's longevity is top-notch. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase, but for this price, it's definitely one of my holy grail lipsticks. Great value for money!
ConsThe texture is matte, so it tends to clump a bit rather than gliding on smoothly. Don't set your expectations too high since it's a drugstore product. Still, it's excellent value for money! Buying it on sale made me feel like I scored a great deal.
TipRecommended for those with fair skin. Unfortunately, I wouldn't suggest it for those with yellow or darker skin tones.

As someone who's not a fan of glossy lipsticks with high oil content, I really appreciated its slightly matte finish. It was my first time trying a marsala shade, and I was pleasantly surprised - the toned-down color is absolutely gorgeous! In my opinion, TonyMoly nailed it. If you're into subtle, natural-looking shades that don't scream 'makeup', this might be your new favorite! It's perfect for those moments when you want to channel that calm, autumnal vibe and switch up your look.
ConsBeing a matte type, it can accentuate dead skin cells and fine lines. For a smooth application without clumping, a lip balm is a must! On the bright side, it's less oily, which might contribute to better staying power. The lipstick packaging could use some improvement - it's quite prone to scratches. I wish the design was a bit more luxe! The twist-up mechanism can make the area around the lipstick tip messy, so be careful not to get it on the cap. It's quite firm, possibly due to its matte nature, so it doesn't glide on as smoothly as some might prefer. There's a slight drag when reapplying.
TipComparing it to TheSaem's Bitter Chocolate and Missha's Rose Milk Tea, TonyMoly and Missha have very similar color payoff. There's hardly any difference when applied to the lips. Missha has a crayon-type texture that applies smoothly and isn't matte. If you prefer a glossy, smooth application, you might want to try Missha instead of TonyMoly's matte formula. TheSaem's shade leans more towards a brick red or reddish-brown. When choosing a marsala shade, I recommend testing it on the inner part of your lip. Pick the one that looks most natural with your lip color and doesn't seem out of place. That's the key to finding your perfect match!
