I’m pretty much aware that matte lipsticks are becoming so yesterday and gloss are making its come back! Also, the trend with lip and cheek tints are still hot like buns fresh from the oven! And so this was made! This product is tint and gloss in one! And not only you can use it on your lips and cheeks but also on your eyelids! Isn’t that amazing? Not to mention that if you know the tissue + powder hack, you can even make it look like matte lipstick! The packaging is extremely cute or should i say, “kawaii”!

Hence, it's very easy to spread evenly and without the sticky feeling, my skin absorbs it fast. I also love the fact that it whi...
