espoir Couture Lip Tint Glaze [03 Chillin' Chillin']

The 'Hwahae' color is a versatile shade that would suit many people, making it a great choice when you're unsure what to gift someone. It seems to strike a nice balance, being slightly warm but not overpowering. Those with a sensitivity to warmer tones may find it a bit too warm, but for spring-toned individuals like myself who need some vibrancy, it works well without making the face look dull. It has a muted yet beige-infused feel, allowing it to have a calming effect. If you're struggling to choose a color, I'd recommend trying the 'Hwahae' shade, especially if you're unsure of your personal color profile. The product also has great lasting power and moisturizing properties. Even in the summer, when my lips tend to be very dry, this balm keeps them feeling soft and smooth without any patchiness or unevenness.

The previous version seems better than the renewed one. It feels like the character has been lost instead.

When you apply it thickly, the shine gets ruined. Overall, apply one layer and add just a little more on the inner part, and it turns out really pretty.

I've been using this product for about 2 weeks now. It's a product I used about 8-9 years ago, but the previous packaging was discontinued and it was renewed, so I'm using it again. The color is really, really pretty. Even though I'm a summer mute, it doesn't look warm or cool, and I can wear it daily. These days, I only apply this one. The saturation is not too high, so even if I layer it a few times, the color comes out natural and doesn't look muddy. It's a great color to wear in the spring. I want to stock up on a few more, and I think I'll be able to apply and use it smoothly and casually.

The scent has a slightly sweet and tangy aroma, but personally I'm not a big fan of overly sweet fragrances, so if you don't prefer sweet scents, you may want to consider that. After applying it a few times, the edges of my lips become heavily coated and the color deepens. 🥲 The color is so lovely that I'm willing to overlook those aspects and use it!
