While the photo shows a warm pink with a slight orange tint, in reality, it has a slightly cooler undertone. If you have warm-toned skin, I recommend testing it before purchasing. 1. As soon as you apply it, it's moisturizing and gives a glossy finish that conceals fine lines. It applies smoothly and feels lightweight after application. 2. There's no stickiness, and the hydration lasts for over 4 hours. 3. It barely stains, so your natural lip color remains unchanged even after cleansing. 4. Regardless of warm or cool undertones, the lipstick color is truly beautiful. It's not a cheap-looking pink, but rather a unique shade. 5. The color doesn't deepen or become dull over time, maintaining its initial hue quite well.
Cons1. While it's not sticky, it doesn't adhere as well to the lips. When rubbing your lips together, you might feel the product slightly sliding around. This makes me think it might have more hydration than oil content. 2. As it's approaching a year since purchase, the lipstick has developed a somewhat unpleasant scent, which might prevent me from using it much in the future. 3. Even after application, you can still faintly detect this unpleasant fragrance. I've noticed this artificial scent in some Korean lipsticks over time, but I didn't expect it from Espoir. 4. I was planning to buy the newly released shades, but after trying this product again and noticing the artificial scent, I decided against it. I'm not sure if this scent is due to the vegan formula avoiding certain ingredients, but personally, I find it hard to tolerate. 5. Since my complexion is somewhat yellow, this shade made my yellow undertones more noticeable. The slightly cool-toned pink might suit cool-toned skin better. 6. First-time users might find the case design confusing, as it's not immediately clear which end should face up for storage.
TipIf you have yellow-toned skin like mine but still want to try this product, I found that layering a warmer shade on top creates a more beautiful and natural color.
