Vice Cosmetics Good Vibes Matte Lipstick in Hayabayabayu + FOTD

Here's a review of the Vice Cosmetics Good Vibes Matte Lipstick in shade Hayabayabayu. I just reviewed this type of lipstick last April and the shade was Pak Ganern. If you want to read specific details about this product, click here. I'll go straight to my verdict for this one. 
I've been on a no-buy policy when it comes to lipsticks but this one came free when I made a purchase during Vice Cosmetics' Summer Sale. So...read my feedback about Hayabayabayu after the jump.
My Take
Using Hayabayabayu brought in a big surprise. I was expecting it to be so much alike in formula with Pak Ganern since they are both from the Good Vibes Matte Lipstick line but Hayabayayu is really on the creamier side that it feels like a natural finish already. It transfers and does not seem to dry down to a matte finish. The pigmentation is also different that I take more than one swipe to color my lips during application. However, if you think that I am complaining about this lipstick because of how different it is from Pak Ganern, besh, you are wrong. I LOOOOOVE IT! Here's why. I guess I've been using matte lipsticks a lot that I've forgotten how comfortable it is to wear a creamy finish, especially at work. The shade is also very close to the natural color of my lips so it looks very natural on me too. Yes it transfers but since it is similar to my lip color, it doesn't look bad or messy even if it wears off during a meal. I don't mind reapplying. So that's basically the verdict here: it's not matte when it's supposed to be, it's not long wearing and I was left wanting for a more opaque application in one swipe...but by some happy accident, I love it! 😆

Swatch
Hayabayabayu is a peachy nude shade.

Vice Cosmetics Good Vibes Matte Lipstick in Hayabayabayu Rating
Packaging: 4/5
Quality: 3/5
Performance: 3/5
User-friendliness: 4/5
Overall: 3.5/5

Would I buy it again? I would say yes. There are tons of other shades in the Good Vibes Matte line that I would still love to try.
Would I recommend it? It would depend on what you want since it is only by accident that I ended up liking it. If you want long-wearing matte then this won't work for you.

And as promised, here's my FOTD for my simple office look. I have listed down all the makeup products that I used to achieve this look. This may seem like a simple makeup look but you'd be surprised at how many products are involved. This photo hasn't been filtered or edited so I would say that the primer and the foundation really worked hard on this photo because I don't wake up like that. 😄
