Pros

The color is absolutely gorgeous and so natural!! It's a soft red-pink shade. I've collected nearly 10 color lip balms, but this one is my absolute favorite.

Cons

There's a slight scent to it, which wasn't really my taste... However, it's not overpowering or bothersome.

Pros

1. It applies smoothly and moisturizes well! The absorbs beautifully, providing excellent lip hydration. 2. It's not sticky at all! There's no tackiness, so your lips won't stick together or feel uncomfortable. 3. It gives a subtle glow (perfect for those who don't like an overly shiny finish)

Cons

1. There's a noticeable difference between the reference photo and the actual color! The real shade is much more muted than shown in the picture... This is why I deducted a star! 2. If you don't have very fair skin, this shade might appear too dark, even for cool complexions.

Tip

Recommended for those with fair, cool-toned skin and anyone looking for a non-sticky tinted lip balm!

Pros

The color is perfect for a natural, bare-faced look. The packaging is absolutely gorgeous!

Cons

The lip balm effect is just so-so. The color payoff is weak. The shade is a lukewarm in-between, leaning slightly warm - not quite cool, not quite warm.

Pros

It applies with a delightfully bouncy and moisturizing texture, and the color is subtle, making it perfect for those natural makeup days! The best part? The morning after using this product, I noticed my dead skin cells on my lips had calmed down, leaving them feeling incredibly soft and smooth. With its pretty packaging, beautiful color, and how well it absorbs, I'm definitely planning to repurchase once I've used it all up!

Cons

There wasn't a single thing I could find fault with! I'm completely satisfied! I just want to stock up on multiple ones...

Pros

I received this product as a gift with purchase of a brow product, but it seems it might be discontinued soon. As a lip balm, it applies smoothly with a subtle glow, making it perfect for use even when your lips aren't in the best condition. I appreciated that the formula wasn't too soft. Many lip balms tend to melt and become mushy on top as you use them, causing the upper part to smudge when tilted. However, this product has a more lipstick-like texture, which I found quite nice. The color payoff is also good, making it suitable as a lipstick alternative. It doesn't leave a white cast, so it looks fine even on a bare face. Interestingly, while it didn't stain my hand when swatched, it seemed to leave a slight pink tint on my lips.

Cons

Since it was a gift, I couldn't choose the color and received the Cranberry shade. The name alone suggests it's a cool-toned color, which was a bit disappointing. It shows up as a grape color, which felt slightly off on my warm-toned skin - like I'd just eaten grape-flavored ice cream. However, I still liked the formula, so I use it for touch-ups. I found that applying a warm-toned color first and then layering this on top worked well. I'm curious about the other shades, but it's a shame it's being discontinued. While the case is pretty, the part you grip to pull out the product is quite short, making it a bit inconvenient to use.

Pros

This shade is perfect for those with cool undertones! It's moisturizing and comes in a beautiful case.

Cons

I bought this color before getting my personal color analysis, so it doesn't match my personal color well.

Pros

First of all, the case is absolutely gorgeous. I adore Espoir's design... I bought it simply because it's pretty, but it's also moisturizing and lovely. While the color payoff might be slightly less intense than Dior's, it's perfect for adding a nice, healthy tint to dry lips! Apply it two or three times, and you'll get a surprisingly deep red hue. The cranberry shade seems like it would suit both warm and cool skin tones.

Cons

It's a bit soft, so when I kept it in my pocket to warm it up, it immediately started to melt. As beautiful as it is, I wish they'd offer more discounts so we could use it more freely...

Pros

The lip color is not very intense since it's more like a lip balm. I think it's suitable for men or students to use. It just adds a natural flush of color to your bare lips, which is appropriate. And most importantly, the case is so pretty...

Cons

Personally, I found the price to be too outrageous, and the fragrance wasn't to my liking either :(

Pros

It has a nice, lively feel and is really moisturizing. The case is also pretty, so it's nice to carry around and apply.

Cons

It wears off quickly. Since it's a lip balm, there's a lot of transfer. Over time, it dries out and becomes dehydrated.

Pros

Among the lip balms with color, some have issues with peeling skin, but this product applies smoothly without that problem. It has good moisturizing power and provides natural-looking color, so it's good to use on its own without lipstick.

Cons

While it applies smoothly, it has a slightly heavy feel, but the good moisturizing power makes me satisfied with it.
