mac sunny seoul sample

i'm sorry for not putting swatches blogpost soon enough. the weather has not been friendly these days. it's supposed to be dry season here in indonesia, but somehow, the rain has just catching up. usually it will rain during december to january, but the heavy rain just came on february. quite weird. perhaps it's time to start taking care of our earth. the weather shifting is clear. okay.. now let's move on to lipstick, ladies...

actually i've used this sample a few times, but every time i put it on my lips, i don't have enough time to take picture, so last sunday i managed to sneak and capture some pictures. from their website, sunny seoul is described as frosted light warm pink (cremesheen finish).

the color payoff: although it's not lustre finish, somehow light color is more difficult to swatch. i have to swipe a few times to make the color shown. using brush is even make it harder. it's said frosted, but it's not heavily frosted, it will give beautiful luminescence on your lips. and i have to agree this one is a warm pink, slightly warm enough to make me look yellow. on my hand it looks like peachy pink.

the lasting power: as usually, the one with lighter color always stay on for a couple hours, not more. this one probably stays on around 3 hours, but quickly vanish with eating and drinking.

the formula: cremesheen is comfortable to wear. creamy so it's easily removed, and not drying my lips. since it's creamy, i bet this one will finish quicker. 3 times using it and i've already hit my pan.

is this one a more suitable pink for me? if i use too little, it doesn't make me yellow, but the whole color won't show. but if i'm using enough, it makes me yellow. although i like peachy pink more than blue pink, i'm still considering this shade though. if i can't find any other pink lipstick that's more suitable for me, then probably i will get this one. but i think this one will suitable for most skin tone, perhaps darker skin tone will stay out of this one as this might not shown.
