Ingredients
How to use
To use, twist the back of the container and pull out about 1mm. Once pulled out, the rouge will not return, so pull out the amount you need. The contents are very soft and may break if you pull out too much. If any of the contents get on the inside of the cap or around the opening of the container, wipe it off with tissue. When the rouge no longer pulls up when you twist the container, it is time to use it. If storing for a long period of time, store it upright with the tip of the rouge facing up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this authentic?
Yes. Every item is bought from an official seller in Japan, or direct from the brand for pre-orders,
never from resellers or grey market stock. Counterfeits and grey market listings are a real problem in
Asian beauty online, and buying only through official channels is how we rule it out.
What are your shipping rates?
On orders under US$75, shipping is a flat US$20 to the United States and US$10 to all other countries.
Orders of US$75 or more ship free, applied automatically at checkout. Your exact shipping cost is shown before you pay.

Do you offer express shipping?
Yes. As of 22 July 2026, we offer International Express Mail through Japan Post. The cost is based on order weight and is calculated automatically at checkout.
Will I pay customs or import fees?
US orders: No. As of July 1, 2026, all US orders ship DDP (duties delivered prepaid), meaning we prepay all import duties on our end. Nothing is due at your door.
Orders outside the US: Possibly. Duties and import taxes are set by your local customs authority and are not collected at checkout, so any charges on delivery are your responsibility.
We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
Edit: Just this is enough for a glossy finish! No liner or gloss needed. It was a hit when I first used it in a while! The color doesn't last as long as Lipmon, but it does have a glossy effect, so it's one that you'll want to reapply every now and then. The color is adult-like, which is nice. I'm a warm-toned person, but this perfumer suits me! I apply it directly to my over-lips, and I'm happy with the finish. No brush needed. A little smacking on the edges makes it blend in, giving it a soft, fluffy look. I wish there was more color?! It's been a while since I bought it, but I'm curious about the other colors lol
The lid of the Lipmon is hard to open, but this is good. The EX-2 is a perfect color for red skiers. I want to be an old lady who can pull off colors like this.
I'm a very cool winter type, which goes hand in hand with my hair color and the colors of my favorite clothes. The color and texture were great. However, it's a stick type and the softness makes it difficult to apply. I guess I could have used a brush, but maintenance is a pain, and the dark color makes uneven application very noticeable, so I couldn't get the hang of it.
The shine and color are amazing. Also, since it's a long, thin stick, it fits compactly in a pouch and is easy to use. This type is easier to apply than regular lipstick.
The color I'm using is a limited edition, but it's exactly what I wanted and I'm very happy with it. The shine fades when I eat or drink, but the color lasts well and doesn't fade to the point where only the edges remain. I reapplied it once, but the color lasted almost a day. If you want a glossy finish, I recommend using it with a gloss. It's a type that you dispense only as much as you need (it can't be reused), but I've had some problems with the cap due to temperature changes, so I try not to carry it around with me too often.
