So here's another first impression review, not the first time on my channel tho but first time here on my blog. 😜
Here's the review video: San San Creamy Matte Lip Stain Review + Swatches
I believe these are the latest from San San Cosmetics, it's the San San Creamy Matte Lip Stain.
They have 12 shades in total but I only got 7 of them.

As for the packaging, it's sleek and easy to use and carry. It's in an acrylic form of container. |

Arm swatches using natural lighting. |
Is it waterproof, smudge-proof or food-proof ?
Waterproof, yes.
After I did these arm swatches, I tried to wash my hand (with soap) but the colors stayed and didn't even fade out a bit.
Smudge-Proof.... No.
After I washed my hands and get it dried, I noticed that it turned out to be a little sticky and when I tried to swipe it with my fingers, it smudged a lot. I think once it gets wet, it will no longer get as matte as it should be, thus resulting it to be smudgy already.
Food-Proof... Not really.
When I did the review video about this, I didn't get to try yet if it's food-proof. But right after my filming, I was able to test it. There are visible fade outs after, but still the color is there. Thus requiring you to do a little retouch if you want... 😊
Formula Quality & Pigmentation
As for its formula quality, this is common in all matte liquid lipsticks, but not all. You know the "matte feels" , drying, non-hydrating, etc.,
Not 100% pigmented, you need to build up the color so that you'll get it on what it should supposed to look like because that's what you see on the outer packing. Maybe 2-3 coats to achieve the pigmentation.
And I kinda hate the sticky feeling, making your lips stick together like a magnet. 😃
But I love the smell, the "vanilla latte feels" like smell, or a Victoria Secret lotion.
Overall:
For its price of Php 180, you get what you pay for. I mean, it's cheap right? But you will get a lipstick that will last for hours because it's a lip stain, it really stains. But just as what I've said, there are just minor fade outs, and a little retouch will do.
The colors are amazing, it really suits to all skin tones.
