별에서 온 그대 'You Who Came from the Stars', Cheon Song-yi`s lip makeup feat Peripera Peri`s Tint Crayon


Hi! 
Okay, to start off first, I`m not a professional makeup artist nor I`m an naturalistic when comes to korean makeup. Thank you for visting and I hope you all do enjoy my blog. Without further or do, let`s start! I bet everyone has watched the infamous Korean drama 별에서 온 그대 'You Who Came from the Stars'. Everyone is going gaga about Cheon Song-yi`s lip makeup. As far as I know, most of the lip product brands that she use in the drama are pretty expensive. I found an alternative for that as I was browsing some makeup the other day.

Featuring: Peripera, Peri`s Tint Crayon (#1 Fruity Pink)
This is actually my first Peripera product. I have seen Peripera in stores for quite sometime  but I used to be quite skeptical about it. Not sure why, maybe the packaging didn't really attract me or I wasn't really impressed with their first launched water tints.


REVIEW:
PROS: 
*Pencil like tip which makes precise application favorable
*Pigmented
*Creamy and moisturising
*Long lasting power

CONS:
*Not readily available in every country
*Tends to be too sticky if you are living in a humid country
*The cap tends to transfer some of the product around the crayon packaging if not properly closed

Colour: 
This crayon is highly pigmented, a little goes a long way. #1 Fruity pink is fresh baby pink colour that is not too overpowering. However, if you have yellow undertone, it is best of apply in a gradient lip effect or else it makes you skin look dull. 

Texture and moisture level: 
It`s really CREAMY! It doesn't fell sticky or too balmy. The texture alone itself is really moisturizing and it didn't dry out my lips like some other crayons. I feel that it  is comparable to the Revlon`s Kissable Lip Stain. It hydrates my lips well. I tend to have dry lips occasionally, and most of the lip products make my lips crack. This is why recently I have been reaching out for this product when I`m on the go.

Scent: 
Okay, in terms of scent it is really hard to describe. I`m a person that doesn't really have much comment on a product when it comes to the smell. However, I`m not that fond of smells that are too tangerine-y. And guess what, this product does not have any significant smell and the scent is quite bearable. Taste okay, I would say.

Lasting power: I have to give thumbs up for this product because it has a very long lasting power (up to 5-7 hours- without eating and drinking). Even after it fades, my lips looks like natural baby pink lips!

Price: The price is pretty affordable if you are purchasing it in Korea. I couldn't remember how
much I bought it already (should be not more than 14,000Won / 14USD)

Final verdict: 4/5  

Recomend? YES/ NO?
YES OF COURSE!
