In my opinion, it seems to apply as a warm-toned color, but over time it maintains a healthy flush like my own lips. I think even men could use it comfortably. When I use tinted lip balms, I often experience peeling and a lack of moisture, to the point where my sensitive lips bleed. But the Raum Balm is so comfortable to apply, and it helps calm the peeling, so I really love it🩷 ☝🏻 Beautifully eco-friendly packaging This is the first time I've seen a lip balm in a paper package like this, from Monage. The realistic endangered animal print on it is so pretty and cute. The package clearly reflects Monage's brand image of being environmentally conscious, and I'm very satisfied with that. Moreover, it has a unique press-down design that you don't see in other lip balms! It's a bit inconvenient to put back in, but I think the environmental consideration makes up for that minor inconvenience! ☝🏻 Light and refreshing to use As someone who applies lip balm frequently, I tend to avoid heavy formulas. Especially when eating or drinking coffee, the oily residue can be quite unpleasant. But the Monage balm has a lightweight feel, so I don't have to worry about it much when enjoying food and drinks.
ConsThere are no disappointing aspects! While the all-paper product may be a bit inconvenient to apply and put back, considering it's for the environment, I think that minor inconvenience is worth it! So it's hard to pinpoint any real downsides, but I figured I should at least write something in the 'disappointing aspects' section.

The sensitivity was good enough to use without any irritation. 2. The small and cute packaging made it convenient to carry around for travel or daily use. 3. The color payoff was natural, suitable for everyday makeup looks. 4. It could be applied to the cheeks without any issues. 5. It did not feel sticky or heavy when applied to the cheeks or lips.
Consㅡㅡ Disadvantages ㅡㅡ 1. It tended to crumble a bit when applied like a lipstick, which was inconvenient. 2.

It's moderately moisturizing and doesn't feel slippery. The scent is not particularly pleasant, but it's not bothersome either.
ConsSince it's made of paper, it gets dirty right away after opening and handling it. It's also inconvenient to push up the product from the bottom. As someone who uses products roughly, I think the contents will likely become tattered before I even use half of it. While it's good for the environment, the inconvenient usage makes me unlikely to purchase it.

It was a shade between brick orange and red, and it applied naturally as a lip and cheek product. The texture was not too shiny, with just the right amount of sheen, and it felt moisturizing to use. Since I usually go for a natural, light makeup look, I've been using this as a daily lip and blush product instead of lipstick or blush.
ConsThe product itself was good, but the packaging was a bit disappointing. It needs to be pushed up from the bottom to use, and a roll-on type would have been better.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe pigmentation was pleasing to me, and the amount was also satisfactory. Contrary to my preconception that the moisturizing power would not be great, I did not feel that my lips were pulled taut or that they had a particularly creamy or moisturized feeling after application. Additionally, I did not get the impression that a lot of flakiness would develop, and I did not experience significant pilling or flaking when applying the product.
ConsThere was a crayon-like scent, which was a bit unpleasant, but it did not become overly bothersome after application. While the environmentally-friendly formula is a positive, the application method of pushing up the product is still somewhat awkward and uncomfortable.
TipThis product would be best suited for light, on-the-go use or for applying in conjunction with a lipstick. It is more of a product to provide a touch of color to the lips rather than a dedicated nighttime moisturizer. It would be a good option to use for makeup application or when you simply want to add a light tint to the lips.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThere are so many things I love about this product that it has been my pride and joy for about 2 weeks 🫶 1. Natural color payoff for lip + cheek in one No matter how eco-friendly a product is, it must fulfill the core function of cosmetics, right? This one really delivers on the color payoff, it's just my style🥹 Can you see the healthy glow on my face?? The color applies so naturally, and my face looks brighter! *Attached before and after photos For reference, I have a fairly light 21 shade complexion, and I don't usually go for heavy makeup. It's a shame it doesn't show as well in the photos, but if you dab this on your cheeks too, you get a natural flush with a subtle glow as a bonus. 2. Trendy and adorable packaging Eco-friendly is so in these days, you know? A paper package with no plastic at all! You push up the bottom to use it, and when you put it back, the gravity makes it go down with a tap-tap sound ㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's so fun, and everyone who sees it gets curious and asks about it. Even if they don't ask, I'll tell them proactively. This item makes the life of an attention-seeker like me even more enjoyable🫶 (The bunny is so cute too🐰❤️) I plan to repurchase when I finish this one, and I also recommend it as a gift to my friends!
Cons1. Concave shape at the bottom When I first used it, the balm had a concave shape at the bottom rather than being convex or flat, so it was difficult to apply directly on my lips. It did flatten out as I used it, though. 2. Need to carry a separate lip balm This isn't an issue with the moisturizing power, but more of a side effect of the great color payoff. As someone who constantly needs to reapply lip balm due to dry lips, I found it burdensome to use this colored balm as a lip balm substitute. This led to my lips getting dry... But I love the color payoff of this product so much that I'm considering getting a separate clear lip balm to carry around. 3. Paper packaging gets dirty As an eco-friendly package, this is something I have to accept. There's a minor annoyance of the opening getting stained red from the product.

Color The color was not too vibrant, but had a lively and suitable color tone on the lips, which I was satisfied with. 2. Fragrance I liked that it was fragrance-free without any additional scent.
Cons1. Texture It was a bit too firm, so it felt a little uncomfortable to apply on the lips. It had a slightly crumbly feel when applying and didn't melt smoothly, so this aspect could use some improvement.
TipThe Raum Balm is better applied by first picking up some product on your fingertip and then gently patting it onto the lips, rather than directly applying it. As a vegan product, I didn't experience any irritation, and the gentle ingredients make it a great recommendation for those with sensitive skin looking for a healthy lip balm!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI am honored to have been selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and to be able to write a review! First, let me express my gratitude. Here is my honest review! I have been very interested in veganism, so the fact that this product is vegan and uses environmentally-friendly paper packaging was a big plus for me. The paper case also made it lightweight. The fragrance-free formula had decent pigmentation. It had a non-sticky, comfortable application, allowing me to use it without any burden. This is a great daily item that is easy to just pick up and use.
ConsWhen I first used it, the front part was a bit stiff, so it didn't apply very smoothly. However, after using it a bit, it applies well. The part where you push it up and down is made of paper, so once you push it up, it's difficult to push it back down. This made it a bit inconvenient to use. For dry skin - the moisturizing power is not particularly great. (But since I have oily skin, I actually preferred this over something too emollient.)
TipTry using this for a no-makeup makeup look - it looks very natural! I like to apply this to my lips before makeup to add some vibrancy, and then use it throughout the day.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe case is cute and eco-friendly, so it's satisfying to use. I don't need to carry a separate lip balm and tint, as this one product covers lip balm and blush. The color payoff is better than expected, which I like.
ConsThe lip balm color doesn't suit my skin tone... And since the case is made of paper, it seems to get dirty easily.
TipAt first, I didn't know what I was doing and pushed the bottom down too hard, causing the lip balm to pop out a lot, which surprised me. But it seems to have softened a bit as I've used it, and now when I tap the bottom, it goes back down. I've been using it by pushing the bottom down to apply, tapping the bottom before closing, and closing it while using.
