Lately ,I've been eye-ing for magenta -colored lipstick because i realized that my lipsticks are all in orange or red shades that make me feel so boooring with them. I feel need to find new color that can refresh my looks. Lucky me ,as i rambling around the town and stopped at John Little,I found the right shade of magenta colored lipstick which i always wanted.
Yes it is,Mikatvonk.Never heard this brand before? mm.me too. This is my first time hearing the name.

Tbh, I'm not kinda used to try non familiar make up brand but considering that it is sell at John Little as trusted drugstores plus have tried the sample which turn out pretty nice,I decided to buy it!

Mikatvonk is originally made in Korea but gain attention in Sydney ,Australia. That is because the line is owned and created by the collaboration of Mr.Kim,a korean previously sales rep of VOV and Jay Jay Rauwenhoff ,an Australian based professional make up artist.The name Mikatvonk came from "Mik is Kim back to front and Vonk (in Dutch) means spark to the brand" -source
Based on what i researched, Mikatvonk is a brand new makeup line that just established few years ago.No wonder when i try visit their official website address ,the link is not working.Maybe they're still working on it? 0_0
The packaging design is just kind of simple and standard more likely ordinary of drugstore cosmeticbrand .The description comes both in hangul and english. It written that "the formula treats lips to rich color with well - moisturized.Vegetable extract and Water holding system keep moisture from evaporating all the day.High glossy formula delivers vivid color."
the color appear to be bold and sheer - matte
Left : Before --- Right : After Applied
Personally I love that i can use this lipstick during daytime or night occasion.The lipstick itself has no shimmer which is me likey :) I'm not a fan of shimmery/glittery lipstick because i have a kind of full lips shape,it will make it super weird if i add any shimmer!
Rate : 5/5

I really like this product ! It doesn't cause my lips dry even after long application and even without applied any lip balm before.I love that the magenta shade suit my skin color and makes me feel more feminine.
I hate lipstick that turn out to be lump once you applied on your lips. But this one is different, it is highly pigmented,even,and pretty moist at the same time!
Mikatvonk may (still) underrated but i think the quality is pretty good.I always tell myself to prioritize the quality rather than the brand,simply bc i've seen may of high-end brand make up doesn't always turn out good in reality unlike the campaign. I think i will buy more make up product from Mikatvonk once they broaden their distribution.So far, i can only find it available at John Little SG and LightInTheBox for International shipping.
