Hi guys! I'm actually really excited for today's review, because it's been a long time since I bought other lip products. Today's review is going to be a product from Peripera. It's the Peripera Ink Matte Blur Tint in number 10 True Red Brick.
I got the darkest color from the bunch to test out my skin tone first. Here is the picture of the actual product.
It comes in a triangular plastic packaging. I think the packaging is really cute yet very straightforward, something that I haven't seen in a while.
I do notice that the plastic packaging is really hard and suddenly just got reminded of my zero waste campus life and felt bad for throwing away the secondary packaging. Haha.
There's also a lot of information at the back of the packaging, some written in Korean, some written in English. The list of ingredients can't be found, though.
The applicator is a doe foot applicator, which is suitable for this creamy type of lip product. Another thing to notice is the rubber stopper. I really like the rubber stopper of this product.
It may be hard to take out the applicator as the rubber stopper is really tight, but it makes product distributed more evenly.
Since the applicator is flat, the rubber stopper makes sure that the product is only distributed at the centre of the doe foot applicator, with none on the sides. I found this really convenient, as we don't need to wipe off excess product on the rim of the tube.
And one more thing - this product smells like chocolate!
Here is the swatch of the product. I find this product to be really buildable. The swatch on my hand is only a few swipes.
The product itself glides on really smoothly, and 'blurs' out prettily, without any patchy-ness. The color itself is a dark warm brown orange color, that is really pretty. It builds up to a dark red orange color as we apply more layers.
For the lasting power, unfortunately it doesn't last that long. This is like a lip cream that blurs out the fine lines on my lips. It doesn't really stain the lips and you would have to reapply after eating. It does feel thick and like you're wearing something on the lips.
Here is the swatch on my lips. The left picture is my original lip color, which is purple and pale. I put on some concealer on the outlines of my lips.
The middle picture is with minimum layers, just enough to cover the uneven color of my lips. Applied thinly, it gives a fresh red orange color on the lips.
Applied thickly, it gives a dark red orange color that pops out my complexion.
Here are full face pictures of me with the product on.

Okay, so here are the cons and pros of the product
Pros
- pretty colour!
- really pigmented
- good for gradient lips and mixed with other colours
- yummy chocolate scent (some people may dislike)
- cute but straightforward packaging
- great rubber stopper and applicator
Cons
- doesn't really last that long (can just reapply though)
Overall: 4/5.
Will I repurchase? Yes! I can overlook the fact that this product doesn't last that long on the lips. I really like this product and am looking forward to try out more colours from this line.
