Geez VT, you really got my weak point. Today I'm going to review the Sweet Special Edition Set by VT Cosmetics x BTS.

Packaging
The packaging surrounds the galaxy theme. It goes well with purple as the colour represents BTS' fandom.
Strictly speaking, I kinda expect more on the packaging when I first saw the advertisement online. I thought it would be similar to Moonshot's design where they put actual glitter effect on the cushion cover. This one VT has here is a printed image of the galaxy. To compliment, the wordings are printed with hologram effect, which is good.
This is how it looks inside! It comes with a mirror - I haven't remove the film sheet when I took this photo.
They even have the ribbon handle in purple! Lovely touch.
Look at all these tiny details! It might not give extra points on the product's function, but definitely bonus for aesthetics!
Speaking of the Lip Fluid, the packaging is classic. Purple and silver. I like the idea of the "small window" which allows user to see the actual colour inside.
As you can see, the lip wand is slightly slanted is its unique way (heh). This would allow much easier application without taking too much of the product.
Swatches and Texture
I will start with the lip tint swatches~
With one swatch, you can get the actual colour itself. Pigmented but not too overwhelming. In fact, the Lip Fluids' texture are velvety and moist-ful.
Rosy Peach and Velvet Burgundy are daily make-up friendly colour. Very Korean-style, but it might be tricky colours for yellow-toned skin.
Once removed with makeup remover, they still left behind a hint of colour tint. Unexpectedly from photos here, Rosy Peach leaves more tint behind and surprisingly they look just nice. No more awkward moment after having meals, isn't it?
Now let me demonstrate the coverage of the cushion foundation on the leftover tint.
The coverage power is medium, only able to minimize the colour contrast. Well, it is quite expected from a cushion foundation as it is meant for daily use, not stage makeup.
Nevertheless, the formula allows to smoothen out the skin texture, leaving a powdery velvety finish. Absolutely my taste!
Personal Experience
Lately I'm not doing much makeup (anyhow we have to wear face mask all day), hence I have switched to cushion foundation instead. Been using this cushion for the past month. Although it doesn't give me the high coverage which I always wanted, it doesn't matter now. Thanks to it's velvety finish, it doesn't leave much trace of foundation on the face mask.
As for the Lip Fluid, they are pigmented and not drying on the lips. The colour doesn't last long, but the tint left behind is natural enough to last for the day.
Where to purchase?
I got this set from the Surprise Box by Near and Dear Shopee Online Shop here. You can get the set for about RM74 now online. Definitely a steal if all 3 components suit your liking.

For your reference.
