I love that they often provide product explanations on Instagram and quickly share event notifications. Highly recommend their cleanser, emulsion, and cream too. ✨ Texture & Application Compared to the original lip balm, it's become incredibly smooth. It melts quickly with body heat and applies smoothly. There's no grainy feeling, and its wide surface makes it great for applying to various dry areas. The Daily Night version is perfect for light daytime use, so you can apply it generously without feeling heavy. ✨ Packaging The paper case is quite sturdy, so you can use it for a long time without worrying about it falling apart. The cute wildcat photo is a bonus! After the renewal, opening and closing have become super smooth, making it easy to use. I gently lift it with my finger, pat it on, and store it again. Once you get used to it, it's not difficult at all! ✨ Scent The scent is close to unscented or medicinal, making it comfortable to apply without any burden. It's reassuring that it's not artificially fragranced. Most lip balms on the market have scents, so even if I was satisfied with their texture or application, I didn't want to buy them again... But Monage Daily Night satisfies me in every aspect!
Cons🐳 Case The lid doesn't snap shut tightly, so it's a bit difficult to carry around like regular lip balms. I keep it on my desk and apply it frequently! That's enough for me. See below for portable tips! Other than that, there's nothing particularly negative.
Tip🍊 Insertion Tip! Don't push the lip balm directly! Instead, tap the hand holding the lip balm against your other hand. (See 4th photo) It goes in very smoothly. 🍊 Portability Tip! It's perfect to carry it in a long cylindrical container (for example, an empty probiotic container). While it increases the size, it reduces concerns about losing the lid or damaging the case/contents. 🍊 Portability Tip 2! If the size is too much, you can cut it and put it in a small sample jar you've received from somewhere! Since it melts well with body heat, you can apply it smoothly with clean fingers. I refilled a sample container at Almang Store in Mangwon-dong, Seoul, using their bulk section. You can even buy just 3g!

First Impression I was really impressed by the paper packaging! I try to minimize plastic use, so this was my favorite aspect. 2. Application Instead of twisting, you push it out like convenience store kimbap - a first for me and super convenient. It has a rich Vaseline-like texture that starts solid but melts smoothly when applied, providing a noticeable boost in hydration. 3. Scent While some people seem to have mixed feelings about the fragrance, I barely noticed any scent. Those with sensitive skin might detect a slight oil scent from the Vaseline. 4. Multi-balm Benefits It's not just for lips - you can use it on your face and body too. I used it when my face or hands were dry, and even for elbow care. The versatility is incredibly convenient, and its compact size is a big plus. 5. Overall I felt this product really captures all the benefits of a multi-balm. I didn't notice any major drawbacks, and it suited my skin well.
ConsOne downside is that it starts off quite solid, and can sometimes crumble and create excess powder. This was a bit disappointing. I think if the top were slightly convex when finished, it might melt more smoothly while reducing product damage and fallout. This is also part of the first impression, after all.
TipTry using it on areas that are often neglected, like your elbows, neck, or heels!

The wide applicator is fantastic, covering the lips and the easily-dried area around them in one swipe. Being colorless and odorless, it's perfect for reapplication anytime, whether you're indoors or out!
ConsYou need to be careful as you can't twist the product back down once it's pushed up. While it's not a major inconvenience during use, there's a risk of making the product difficult to use if you make a mistake.
TipWhen you first open it, the product might be a bit cracked with some excess powder, so it's best to open it for the first time in a convenient place before carrying it around.

That made me feel more at ease using it. Color & Scent: It's colorless and seems to have no noticeable scent! This makes it suitable even for those sensitive to fragrances. Texture & Application: The texture is firmer than I expected, so I warmed it up in my hands before applying it to my lips. It spread more easily than I anticipated, which was nice. Design: I believe mine had a wildcat design, which was absolutely adorable! I also appreciated that it's eco-friendly.
ConsSince you have to push it up from the bottom instead of twisting like most lip balms, you need to be a bit careful when applying. That was slightly inconvenient. Also, because it's made of paper, it seems like it might peel easily, so it's not something you can use roughly.

It's great that you can apply it anywhere that's dry! The packaging with the deer is super cute, and it definitely gave me an eco-friendly vibe.
ConsIf you have dead skin cells on your lips, it doesn't apply very smoothly. It seemed a bit weak at calming those flaky bits. However, when there's no flakiness, it feels so nice to apply that I find myself reaching for it often.
TipI mainly applied it to my lips and fingertips.

At first, it was a bit stiff due to the cold and didn't apply smoothly. But if you place it on your lips for a moment before applying, it glides on beautifully! For those curious about the application, keep this tip in mind :) Hydration: It seems to keep your lips moisturized for a really long time. Even for someone like me with very dry lips, I find myself reaching for this product often. Design: The packaging is eco-friendly, and it features adorable animal pictures, making it a cute package overall.
ConsThe method of dispensing the product is inconvenient. Instead of twisting or using another mechanism, you have to directly press the bottom of the container with your finger. This makes it difficult to control the amount, and if too much comes out, you have to use your fingers to push it back in.
TipIf you apply a generous amount to your lips before bed, they feel incredibly hydrated when you wake up in the morning!

I typically use skincare products focused on soothing and blemish care. #Texture & Application It's a solid stick but glides on smoothly. Initially, the cut surface might feel a bit rough, so I recommend swiping it on your hand a few times before applying to the delicate eye area. #Ingredients I didn't experience any new blemishes or irritation while using it. The ingredients are known to be excellent, so that's reassuring. #Scent I'm usually sensitive to fragrances, but I didn't experience any discomfort while using this. #Packaging & Design True to its eco-friendly and vegan nature, both the packaging and product are made of paper. The adorable animal design is charming!
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing, except once you push the product up, it doesn't retract back down.

It has just the right texture and scent that I love. The hydration level is medium to high in my opinion. I always use Vaseline lip balm as my go-to, but it can feel a bit heavy. I was looking for something lighter, and this product is perfect for daily use. It's incredibly lightweight, yet still provides excellent moisture.
ConsWhile I appreciate that it's a vegan product, which is great, the vegan packaging is a bit inconvenient. You have to push it up from the bottom to use it, and if it comes up too far, you have to push it back down. This means you can't avoid touching the product itself. Also, the stick is quite thick, so I ended up applying it with my finger. The thickness made it a bit awkward to apply directly to my lips.
TipApplying thin layers multiple times provides sufficient hydration. It works well when applied thoroughly before lipstick - the color products seem to go on smoothly afterwards!

It applies smoothly, and the fragrance-free formula is great for those sensitive to scents. The hydration is fantastic, but it doesn't feel overly rich, which I love even more! I've been using gifted lip balms for a while, but they left my lips too dry. I was thinking about buying a new one when I discovered this amazing product through The Hwahae Testers. If you've been unsatisfied with high-end lip balms from Olive Young, I highly recommend giving this one a try!
ConsThe only slight downside is the paper packaging, which feels a bit disappointing. However, considering the environmental benefits, it's hard to complain about it.
TipWhen you first use it, the surface might feel a bit stiff, as if it's coated. I recommend rubbing it on the back of your hand a few times before applying it to your lips!

It's unscented with hardly any taste, so it doesn't make me dizzy. As someone who gets lightheaded from strong fragrances all day, this is perfect. The packaging is environmentally conscious too - made of paper instead of plastic. While unusual, it's unique and shows they're thinking about the environment, which I love.
ConsSince it's a paper product, you can't simply twist it up and down. You have to press the paper part to push the product up, and tap the bottom on a surface to get it to go back down. That's a bit inconvenient...
TipI was really satisfied when I applied it lightly to my lips, nails, and the sides of my nose where dead skin cells tend to build up. There was no flaking and it worked great!
