Innisfree Color Glow Lipstick 4 Moist Cherry Red

What better way to welcome the arrival of warmer months (it is already spring in the makeup world!) than a red lipstick?



Name: Innisfree 이니스프리 Color Glow Lipstick 컬러 글로우 립스틱 4 Moist Cherry Red 물 머금은 앵두 레드
Price: ₩ 12,000 for 3.5 g
Made in: Korea

At first, I thought that it would be a lipstick that I would whip out during special occasions (cherry red can be daunting) but it has ended up in my handbag. An amazing feat considering the amount of criteria it needs to fulfill before it gets to be my everyday lipstick.


Even though it is quite bright, I do not feel like it is too much. The gorgeous glossy finish does not impart intimidating vibes plus it gives an illusion of less saturation.



It is pretty pigmented for such a moisturising formula. I can get a couple of hours wear as long as I do not go near food or drinks.

Mine was purchased from innisfreeworld.com for US$ 14. Also, I will neither confirm nor deny that I am adding the other colours to my cart...

Hee! I love this on you, Blair! Am eyeing a few shades myself as well (narrowing down is so difficult -- I can't even choose between 5 and 6)

Thank you Kate! It is so hard to guesstimate the colour because they look different from blog to blog.

it looked so bright but i'm surprised its pretty transparent and glossy (with a nice sheen i mean)! i'm still afraid of reds!

Thanks for sharing! I have tried this too but in a different shade. Mine was number 3. I think the lipstick was okay but I prefer the glossy lacquer more. :)

Love the unique shape of the bullet before you use it! The glossy formula looks great on you :)

Natasha said...

Nice!! That is a really gorgeous color! I love how it isn't a super bright red. gig

Lucy said...

Lovely shade, but I also like the packaging... it is so simple but for some reason really "speaks" to me

The colour is so pretty and it looks good on you! Kissable lips hehe :P

Ari said...

To be honest I'd personally be a little disappointed in this lipstick because it seems more like a lipgloss or tinted balm. I like my lipsticks really pigmented. The color is still lovely though and it looks good on you!

the colour is very light isnt it? I expected the colour to be a massive red, but its very shiny,like a lip gloss =)

Somdyuti said...

OMG this colour is super-awesome and it is looking so fab on you. Love it totally. This is my favourite shade of all time! ^_^

Mizu said...

this looks a really great formula and color. i've been eyeing korean lipsticks for a while now and i'm not entirely sure which brands i'm going to go with. i guess they're something to be said about innisfree's more natural approach to cosmetics. wish i could read those korean ingreidents.
