Hello, everyone. Lemme share with you one of my favorite lip tints so far - this is the Barbie Make Color Pop Tint from Milky Dress!
I generally prefer lipsticks because (1) my lips are very pigmented, (2) lip tints usually don't stick and stain my lips, (3) I find lip tints to be quite drying, and (4) they don't last long. This tint proved me wrong! Continue reading to learn more!

The formula is hydrating and non-drying and will instantly deliver a natural pop of color to your lips and cheeks in just one swipe!

I got the shade Delight Coral inside Althea's Chok Chok box, which is now sold out. The lip tints are currently priced 520 PHP at Althea.

How to use:
Apply as a lip gradation or full lip, using the applicator. Can also apply as a blusher using your fingers to spread the color.
look at how classy it is! |
It has its downsides though. It has a screw-type lid but since it looks like bullet, interested people who want to inspect it would always try to pull it apart. 💀 The metallic surface is also a fingerprint magnet! You need to wipe/clean it regularly so that it wouldn't look grimy.
Now, Swatches!!!
Delight Coral is described as a peach coral with a hint of white to create a beautiful nude shade that brightens your complexion. The subtle color is supposed to light up your face.inside and outside lighting I smudged the other sample so that you can see how it will look like as a blush. |
How I apply it: The slanted doe-foot applicator is okay but I prefer blending it with my fingers. Whenever I use the applicator, I always end up applying very thick layers. You also need to exfoliate your lips before using this. It emphasizes flakes if there are any. Lumps + gloss do not make a good combination.
lip swatches 😂 (note: blended with fingertip) |
Delight Coral looks like a bright orange on my tan skin but after it sets (about 5 minutes), it would develop this reddish undertone like the middle swatch above. It has a weird chemical scent but it's not noticeable once it settles down. The finish is glossy and shiny and it is very moisturizing. As you can see, my lips got plumper and there were less lines the more layers I apply.
Before blending with my fingers - I was taken aback by how bright it is during my first test. The shade will change a little bit as it sets. |
One last thing, despite the serious shine, this won't trap your hair like those Juicy Tubes from the early 2000s. It feels a little bit tacky so I don't use it as a blush, but it's tolerable.
Verdict
I don't expect much from lip tints because of how they work on my lips but this one managed to exceed my expectations. For a glossy lip tint, the color is indeed vivid and it certainly lasts long. I recommend the Barbie Make Color Pop Tints especially to people who have the same problems as me. This would be perfect for natural dewy looks.Tried this? How's your experience? What other lip tints do you recommend?
