In just a small amount of products, you can see how the color pay offs when blended. Plus it is very lightweight.Also buildable and easy to blend just using fingers.

Sunmi 선미 (Wonder Girls 원더걸스) - 'Why So Lonely' Makeup Inspired Tutorial

Sunmi first debuted as a member of Wonder Girls (2007) but later on (January 2010) left the group as she pursue her academic career.

In 2013, she came back as a solo artist with the song "24 Hours". Following up with a mini album called "Full Moon" which some of the songs are featuring her ex-co member (Wonder Girls) Yubin and Yenny.

In 2015, she re-joined Wonder Girls since withdrawing on 2010.

Finally, Wonder Girls came back (after 3 years hiatus) not as a dance group that they used before but a band group instead with their third studio album "Reboot" features "I feel you"

Now in 2016, they came back with "Why So Lonely" which I recreated the look of Sunmi.

Hmmm.. I didn't thought it was like a Coral color because I was expected to have a kinda dark red-brown color (that was shown on the packaging).

It's okay. I still love the color tho. Perfect for everyday makeup. :)

After I apply, it gives me a sticky feeling at first but when the lip polish set on my lips, it feels so moist and natural.

It doesn't have any scent at all.
