Haha. It's rare to buy the same product and the same color twice. This was a headache. One was lost after using it, but I liked it so much that I bought it again. The second one I bought yesterday is also almost a hit fan. It applies well, has good color payoff, and is comfortable on the lips. I like matte lipsticks, but I'm the type who has a constant cuticle meltdown party morning and night, so the moisturizing formula is effective in calming the cuticles. It applies smoothly and sticks to the lips. It looks good when applied lightly on bare skin, and it's also pretty when the makeup is fully applied. The color is really clear, but it's not light, it's a classic deep red. Chanel seems to be good at creating reds, as much as they love the color.
ConsThe formula is smooth, the core is thin, and the product itself is lightweight, so it gets used up really quickly. You can see it wearing down fast. It also disappears quickly from the lips - the lasting power is terrible. As a glossy type, there's not much that can be done about that, haha. Whenever I drink or eat, it's 100% gone and flies off my lips.

The moisturizing power is also excellent, making this a versatile red lip product that can be useful to have. As someone who prefers a more subtle makeup look, I tend to apply it in a gradated fashion rather than a full lip.
ConsThe price is a bit on the higher side, the formula is slightly soft so it can get smudged when pressed, and the amount of product is a bit limited, which could be considered drawbacks.
TipOne should be cautious when opening the lid, as it can cause the product to get smudged or scratched by the lid.

It's really great. I felt like my lips were made of glass. No, even if I applied it on a glass window, it wouldn't slide as smoothly... Anyway, the glide is truly, truly good... 🌙Excellent Color Payoff When applied on the lips, the color shows up exactly as it is. The vivid and bright color appears instantly. 🌙Easy to Use As the formula is soft, the gradation is also easy to achieve. It's incredibly easy. Additionally, lining the lips is not difficult either. 🌙Natural Finish With a fairly glossy finish and tiny specks of pearls, it creates a natural-looking and lively lip look without feeling overbearing. 🌙Minimal Emphasis on Wrinkles and Flakiness There is minimal emphasis on wrinkles and flakiness. It's probably due to the glossy formula. Of course, I don't have much lip flakiness, but even on days when my lips are in poor condition, it didn't look bad. 🌙Neutral-Toned Lip It's a neutral-toned lip. It seems to be greatly influenced by one's own skin tone and natural lip color. The product's color itself appears to be a pure, clear red. Since my face has a deep warm tone, I was a bit worried if it would suit me when I first saw the color, but when I applied it, it turned out to be a red with a slight orange undertone, which looked really nice! Also, when I tested it on the palm of my hand, which is the coolest-toned area of my skin, it appeared as a slightly pink-toned red. It's quite difficult to find a lip product that suits any skin tone, but I think I've found one.
Cons🌟Pencil-Type Packaging The packaging is a bit inconvenient. It's a pencil-type where you have to open and close the cap and twist the bottom to dispense the product, but the cap is sometimes loosely closed. Of course, it hasn't happened yet, but if the cap opens in my bag... (fearful) I've also often accidentally marked the pretty pencil shape with the cap edge when quickly closing the cap. And if young children unknowingly twist the bottom part vigorously... the pencil gets smashed, and it's a waste of money. 🌟Dryness It's not very moisturizing. While it may look hydrating on the outside, I can feel my lips drying out shortly after applying it. 🌟Longevity It transfers onto my fingers when I touch it. It also transfers onto tissue paper. You'll feel it for yourself when you try it. That I can never expect any real longevity from this. The color payoff? Of course, it's negligible. 🌟Cost-Effectiveness It's not as moisturizing as a lip balm, and it lacks color payoff, but the color payoff is quite decent, so it feels more like a glossy lipstick than a tinted lip balm. However, these types of lipsticks are widely available at drugstores, aren't they...? You can buy at least 2 better quality drugstore lipsticks for the price of this... So, would you really want to buy this?
TipIt wasn't bad to use it lightly blended as a blush either. The formula itself is easy to blend and spreads smoothly, so there's no problem at all. However, if you directly rub it on top of the base you've already applied, the non-milky formula can cause it to move around, so I prefer to lightly dab it on after creating a sheer swatch on the back of my hand first. While it only comes in a light color blush, if you suddenly feel drawn to a red-toned blush, give this a try! :-)
