I have warm, autumn skin tones. I bought the sheer red. I like that it lasts longer than Nivea's and doesn't leave flakes around the corners of my mouth when it dries. In my case, the tint-like color remains even after a while, and it doesn't cause vertical wrinkles. I actually bought this as a last resort, but I was surprised that it was better than I expected. It combines moisturizing and lipstick effects, and I'm happy that it's priced so I can use it every day. I'll be buying other colors too.
I thought that tinted moisturizing lipsticks would barely have any color (that was the case with other brands), so I was surprised to find that the color was stronger than I expected. However, it doesn't look strange even when worn without makeup, so I think it's perfect for winter, when lip color tends to fade.
▼About Sheer Bordeaux: It's quite pigmented! The color payoff is great. I think it would be a good alternative to lipstick for people whose lips get dry no matter what lipstick they choose.
DHCDHC Lip Cream Color Sheer Red, Sheer Rose Pink, Sheer Bordeaux 712 yen (tax included) Limited-time special price Sheer Bordeaux was the most pigmented, followed by Sheer Red, Sheer Rose Pink, and Sheer Rose Pink, which is a slightly dull pink and quite pale. Personally, I prefer Sheer Rose Pink and Sheer Red, but the colors may fade quite quickly. I think Sheer Red lasted the longest.
