Spring Warm Ramen is highly recommended! The color is so pretty.. It brightens up the face and even applies thinly on bare skin, it blends well.
Cons
While the longevity may not be the best, I haven't been able to find a tint that matches this one as well...

I was hesitant before, but I purchased the Nas tint because the color payoff and longevity were good. The application is smooth, and the packaging seems durable, which is nice.
Cons
Despite the good points, there are many disappointing aspects, such as accentuating flaky skin, zero longevity, and the color being darker than expected.

The color seems to be really well-picked. It looks pretty wherever it's applied - even when worn alone or used as a base lip product.
Cons
The longevity is not great. The individual formula is something I personally don't like. It's a bit creamy, I suppose?

I purchased this lipstick as a base lip product. My skin tone is 23, and I was looking for something that 1) wouldn't look cakey and 2) had a matte finish. This lipstick checked both of those boxes! ✅Color The color is a rosy coral. It's closer to pink than orange, with a hint of fluorescence. This helps brighten my natural lip color by just a touch. Even when layered, the color remains subtle, making it great for a natural, innocent makeup look!! It's more of a statement lip than an MLBB shade.💄 I like to use this as a base, with a higher-intensity color in the center. Whether I layer it with a red-toned or orange-red or pink-red shade, it blends seamlessly. This rosy coral shade seems to harmonize with any lip color.💖 ✅Texture It has a chocolatey or sweet, buttery scent. The formula is matte yet creamy, so it applies and blends out beautifully for a gradient effect. It's not drying at all and has a moisturizing feel, but it may accentuate any lip flakes.
Cons
✅Pigmentation and Longevity I prefer lipsticks with good pigmentation that leave a subtle stain. And while the matte formula has a moisturizing feel, it does tend to wear off fairly easily.
Tip
Lightly dab the color in the center of your lips, then use your lips to spread it out naturally. To get a more precise, defined lip line, use your finger to gently pat and press the color outward to the edges. When applying a bold lip color in the center, it's better to dab and press rather than swipe, for a more natural, blended look.

Even though they all look similar, it's surprisingly hard to find a spring warm-toned color that brightens up the face with a vibrant fluorescent-orange tone like this one. The NARS shade is just so stunning...♡ This is the perfect color for spring warmth. You could even use the caramel-warm shade as a base lip color. The formula is lightweight and has a slightly oily velvet texture. It's also a great formula for using as a blush...! As a matte product from a department store brand, I don't have much to compare it to, but it applies so smoothly without any clumping, unlike drugstore options. The staying power is also quite good...? I had some prejudice about it being too powdery and emphasizing flakes, but I was proven wrong. The only issue was the price. When applied on the lips, it feels so lightweight - I can see why they called it 'Air'! Great staying power without feeling heavy, what more could you ask for?
Cons
The downside is that it's really difficult to twist up the applicator. Out of all the tints I've used, this one was the hardest to dispense, almost like pulling out King Arthur's sword. And the amount that comes out at once is too much, making it hard to control the application (you could easily coat your entire chin with one squeeze... Tissues are a must-have). The unique applicator shape also took some getting used to - it's quite firm and three-dimensional, which was a bit surprising at first. Lastly, due to the formula, it can emphasize any flakiness, but that's kind of unavoidable.
Tip
A brush would be nice, but you can apply it well with your fingers too. It works great as a blush as well!

- I think I understand why it's an air mat. It has good adhesion but is very lightweight. - The adhesion is good, so it lasts quite a long time. The Nars lip products seem to generally have good staying power.
Cons
- Color: It's not as warm as I expected. When I saw the ad, I thought it would be a color like MAC Crossfade... But I think it might suit those with a summer-cool skin tone better than spring-warm, in my opinion as a color novice.

Here's a review of a long-lasting and wrinkle-prone lip product! I usually don't write makeup reviews, but I love this product so much that I decided to share my thoughts on Hwahae's new color cosmetics category. While color cosmetics aren't the main focus on Hwahae, and not many people write reviews on them, I thought it would be worth sharing my experience with this product. ♥️Pros1) The color blends beautifully and melts into the lips, giving a velvety finish without any clumping or grainy texture. Among the velvet-type lip products I've tried, some from brands like Threeconcept had issues with patchy application and poor staying power, but this one doesn't have those problems. It also outperforms products from brands like Rom&nd and Black Rouge in terms of performance. Compared to MAC Powder Kiss Liquid Lipstick, this feels less drying and has a more cloud-like, hydrated application. ♥️Pros2) The pigmentation is not overpowering, just about average, but the great adhesion makes the color last really well. There's minimal transfer in the center of the lips, and the fading is gradual and natural-looking. The long-lasting wear and beautiful application make this a repurchase for me. I'm currently exploring other shades. The color I have is a muted, slightly whitened indie pink, which is brighter and more luminous than the typical indie pink shade. As a warm-toned (autumn warm) person who loves pinks and does well with muted tones, this shade works great for me.
Cons
😭Cons1) It's drying! After wearing it all day and then trying to remove it, I really feel the dryness. It's noticeably more drying than other lip products. That's why I always make sure to apply my trusty Sidmool Hoho Ba lip essence generously whenever I wear this. Even then, the dryness persists. If you're someone who often picks at your lips and doesn't regularly use lip balms or essences, this product might emphasize flakiness and dryness for you. Just a heads up! 😭Cons2) For the high price, the quantity is really quite small. A lot of the product gets left behind on the cap, body, and stem, so I have to scoop some of that out and reapply it from the container. This makes me feel like I'm going through it faster than I'd like. I have a ton of lip products, and it's rare for me to finish them, but this one is so pretty and the quantity is small enough that I think I'll be using it up pretty soon!ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Tip
Blend it on in small amounts! Use a brush to apply it along the edges, blending and gradating it, then use the tip to directly apply it to the center for a beautiful, finished look. The first photo is with a regular camera, the second is a selfie with some editing. (I'm 22-23 shade, autumn warm-toned and muted soft, with a touch of greyish + a hint of spring warm-toned)
