It's not overwhelming and doesn't dry out your lips. The packaging is beautiful, and the lipstick itself is quite pretty. I think the color looks best after the first application. It's especially flattering for warm-toned skin.
ConsThe color wasn't quite right for me - it's a bit of a warm brownish shade? If not applied carefully, it can look a bit matronly. There's a risk of it appearing somewhat dated or unfashionable.

It strikes a perfect balance between luxury and sophistication. The semi-transparent design allows the inner container to subtly shine through, creating a beautiful effect. There's been a lot of talk about the texture, and I found it to be pretty decent. It reminds me of a matte version of that refreshing Holika Holika lip balm/stick. For a matte lipstick, it's quite soft, but I think that's just right. It's much smoother than overly dry formulas, applying naturally and effortlessly. However, if it were any softer, it might be problematic. I did worry it could melt in this weather if not stored properly. I've been carrying it in my bag when I go out, and it hasn't melted yet, but I wouldn't recommend keeping it in your pocket during summer! The color is incredibly natural. I prefer light makeup, and lately, I've been avoiding overly bold lips. Even when trying products advertised as 'MLBB' (My Lips But Better), they often still look artificial. This one, though, is truly natural. It's both a pro and a con - the color is so sheer that it can never be applied heavily. I'm satisfied because that's exactly what I wanted! Don't worry about it making your lips look lifeless. It adds a subtle vitality to bare lips, and when worn over makeup, it gives that perfect nude lip look. However, if you have naturally dark lips or a skin tone darker than shade 23, you might find it less satisfying. The staying power isn't great, but that's part of its charm too. Unlike typical matte lipsticks that apply like opaque paint with intense staining, this product is more like a watercolor - sheer and translucent. I don't mind reapplying, but if you find that bothersome, it might bother you. It's also great for creating an overlip effect! Because it looks so natural, you can slightly overdraw your lip line to make your lips appear fuller. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this product!
ConsIt doesn't seem worth the full price, as it's very soft and likely to be used up quickly. The staying power is also poor. They claim it has a plumping effect, and while it does create a tingling sensation like you've eaten spicy food, I didn't notice much actual plumping. Though that might be because I already have naturally full lips. If you have sensitive lips, I strongly recommend patch testing before purchasing. Also, I wouldn't recommend this for those with very wrinkled lips or a lot of dead skin cells.
TipExcept for the Nude Cream shade, don't try to build up the color by applying multiple layers - it won't look good. The product seems designed to give a sheer, subtle finish. For the best results, apply it in one smooth stroke and then gently pat it in. The Nude Cream color is lovely, by the way. I recommend it!

That sensation is just amazing. Since I regularly exfoliate, I didn't notice any dead skin cells being emphasized on my lips. I think if you take good care of your lips, this product won't highlight any flakiness. The color might seem too light at first, but it gives such a natural 'your lips but better' look that's perfect for a subtle makeup look. Or you can use it as a base and layer a more vibrant shade on top for a gorgeous effect!
ConsThere's just one small downside... Occasionally, the lipstick gives off a strange scent (and I'm not even using it in an unhygienic way). It's really rare, but when it happens, the smell is quite noticeable. It makes me wonder if it's just my imagination, so I just hold my breath and apply it anyway... haha! It's odd because when I first opened it, it smelled great!
TipAfter thorough exfoliation and applying a light layer of lip balm, this matte lipstick was so easy to use despite its formula!

Gives a natural, healthy-looking flush to the lips.
ConsFor a tinted lip balm that adds a healthy glow, the price is a bit on the steep side.

I'm considering buying the full-size product once I finish this. It creates a natural, healthy-looking complexion that's so subtle it's like you're not wearing anything at all.
ConsIt feels too much like a lip balm... I think it might seem a bit overpriced.

It has a texture similar to Holika Holika's Water Drop Tint Balm + Lipstick. That's why it feels transparent even though it's matte. Some people have strong opinions about the texture, so before you buy, I recommend going to the store and testing it out!
ConsHowever, if you apply multiple layers, it tends to clump. It seems to work best when applied only 2-3 times.

I'm so pleased with how it gives a natural tint that looks like my original lip color! I was worried after reading reviews about its unusual application, but I find it applies smoothly without pilling for the first 1-3 coats, so it's not really inconvenient. This product seems perfect for a bare-faced look with just a lip tint, or for creating a gradient effect.
ConsIf you try to build up the color by applying multiple layers for a more vivid look, it can lead to some pilling and uneven application.
TipMy technique is to apply one layer along my lip line, then gently pat a bit more on areas that need extra color or hydration. This method prevents pilling, allows for a smooth application, and leaves my lips feeling moisturized at first, then comfortably matte as it sets!

It has a subtle orange/coral tint that complements warm skin tones beautifully~ It's the perfect shade if you're going for that 'my lips but better' (MLBB) effect. While it's great on its own, pairing it with the Spice Nude Balm in Jalapeño enhances the color and improves longevity (check out swatch #2 for reference)~ As a matte lip product, it has a velvety finish. Like others in this line, it creates a slight cooling sensation and seems to have a subtle plumping effect.
ConsThe formula is quite soft. If you're not careful and apply too much pressure, it might break easily. Also, being a matte lip product, it tends to accentuate dry, flaky skin and lip texture.
