I have all three colors. Maroon Brown is my favorite and I use it a lot. It tends to be a little uneven, but it's easy to use, so I think it's convenient to have one in your purse.

I have dark lips, but I'm a warm-toned spring type whose complexion fades without lipstick. My lips tend to dry out easily, and even when I apply lipstick, they feel rough, and I feel like applying lipstick over them cancels out the effect of the lipstick...so I was looking for a tinted lipstick that combined the best of both worlds. I was attracted to this product because it uses essential oils, the color image, and the simple packaging, and it's actually pretty good. It feels moisturizing from the moment you apply it, and it smells nice too. It gives my dark lips a strong color, brightens them up, and makes them look plumper. It's not as effective as lipstick, but it does give the impression of full makeup.
I've always preferred tinted lipsticks that can be reapplied over and over, rather than long-lasting ones like tinted lipsticks, so I bought this. The color is just right for everyday use, and it makes me want to buy other colors too! The scent isn't too strong, but it has a herbal and minty feel that leaves you feeling refreshed. It's also thinner than I expected.
I bought this on January 10, 2026! Most colored lipsticks contain tar pigments, which is a problem. I had almost given up on them, but this one is reasonably priced at around 700 yen and contains safe ingredients! I choose sunscreen that contains 100% UV scattering agents, so I felt reassured when I saw that it contained titanium oxide. Since it was an affordable price, I chose a bold color that I wouldn't normally choose. When I opened the cap, there was no unpleasant oily smell. Since I wasn't used to it, it caused my teeth to blemish at first. I'm grateful to my friend who gently handed me the hand mirror (;´Д`A). One coat is enough color. It stays moisturizing for about 30 minutes, but quickly becomes matte as soon as I go out. It feels dry, so I applied a colorless lip balm. The color didn't come off. I don't wear much makeup, so I only use it about twice a week, so I don't use it up right away. When you think about it, it's pretty cost-effective!
