Here’s one lip product that’s been regularly stashed inside my makeup kit for quite a while and one of my favourites.

I was very curious about it when I sought upon this product for the first time. The label’s written in Korean, so I had no idea what kind of makeup it was, until I received the product information saying it works as a “lip tint”.

Tony Moly Berry Berry Magic Lip Tint is made of water-soluble dye that melts on moistened skin, such as the pucker. It’s enriched with Vitamin E that moistens and protects the lips from irritation.

It comes in 3 colours: strawberry, green apple and grape. I got mine in strawberry, hinting on the tangy berry scent as I took a whiff on it.

Translucent Gel, Tinted when Applied

Inside

The strawberry flavour disguises as a clear translucent gel, hence I didn’t have a clue that it was indeed a lip product. I was caught by surprise the moment I applied it on my lips — the once clear gel magically transformed into a tinted one. I guess it has the same formulation as that of Smashbox O-Gloss’, but I’ve yet to find out for sure.

Great Colour Payoff, Yummy Strawberry Scent

It delivers a deep pink tint, and has a rich colour payoff for a lip tint. I use it in lieu of my old The Body Shop Lip and Cheek Stain, since the former is more moisturising that I don’t even need to apply a lip balm after. It has a glossy sheen that’s not too overpowering, making it perfect to wear alone sans the need of a lip gloss. It’s not sticky to boot!

The finger application may set you off, but a separate lip brush will do the trick.
