REVIEW: Mumuso Soft Lipstick in Shade #03
Annyeonghaseyo!
I've always been fond of makeup since I had my junior prom. So last Christmas 2016, a close friend of mine gave me a lipstick from Mumuso because she knows that I love lippies in general.
She got me the Mumuso Soft Lipstick in shade #03. When you look at it, it somewhat looks a little bit red orange but when you put it on your lips, you can observe that it is more orange than red.
This lipstick has two ends - one for the product itself and the other end has a tool for smudging.
At first, I didn't really expect this to be retractable but to my surprise it was! I don't have photos of it fully out because I feel like it will break or I won't be able to return it to its original retracted state. Additionally, it doesn't have any scent to it.
I swatched this on my wrist under natural lighting from my bedroom window.
I've decided to wear this on our first day of classes because I think that the pop of color brightens up my face, even though I felt too sleepy for my 7:30 am class.
Around 20 minutes or so after application, I really felt that my lips were drying up so bad. By 11 am, my lips were super chapped.
You can't really see it in the photo but my lips were so dry.
Next, I ate lunch with the hopes that this lipstick will stay on my lips. Sadly, it did not. After my first bite, I saw that this lipstick transferred on my disposable spoon.
The longevity of the product is just for a short period of time. You have to reapply constantly even if you're just drinking or speaking.

When I first applied it on my lips, I was immediately impressed by how smooth the application was. There was no tugging involved.
I also liked how it was a bit sheer upon application and was not very pigmented. For me, this is a good aspect because the color is very bright (well, for me anyways). It being a sheer lippie makes it easier for me to control the color as I am still a bit cautious on wearing bold lips.

After eating, there was still a tinge of the lipstick but it already became patchy. Because this lippie is drying, I had to remove everything off of my lips and then proceeded to reapply lip balm.
PROS:
- Nice shade
- Smooth application
- No scent
CONS:
- Very drying
- Not long lasting
SCORE:
3/5 stars:
Would not purchase again because it really dried my lips out. The shade was nice though.
Have you tried anything from Mumuso? Let me know below what you think!
