Community summary
The most frequently mentioned point is color. Satisfaction with color and color payoff appears in 267 reviews (53%), and personal color mentions in 143. The Lay Down and Pink Guava options sold the most, and the context is that the recommended tone labels make it easy to choose. Olive Young's official 'very satisfied with color payoff' is 68%.
Next comes the finish. Soft, blurred or matte mentions number 215 (43%), and 'moist' 141. The description 'moist at first, then soft and matte over time' recurs. With 123 comments that longevity and staining are good and 71 mentioning a repurchase or their umpteenth tube, there are many long-term users too.
The downside is dryness. 85 reviews mention dryness or emphasized flakes and lines, and Olive Young's official moisture rating is also 'average' at 52%. 24 mention applying lip balm first. There are also 20 reviews saying it wears off quickly, reviews bothered by the scent, and complaints from some users about lip discomfort and the country of origin.
These are counts of only those reviews, out of the 500 read, in which the expression appeared directly in the text. If anything, we undercounted rather than inflated — it's a minimum.
