essence What a Tint Lip Cheek Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Blush Lip Stain Non-Sticky Kiss-Proof Vegan Cruelty Free 01

Very high pigment and lasts most of the day. It’s definitely not like permanent but it lasts longer than most I find in store. Nice deeper but plummy red color. Brighter than what it seems in the container but it is none the less a nice color. Not too sticky and dries quick. Also stains quickly. Very quickly. So don’t leave dots on your face if you’re using it as blush because it will leave dots around your face. Very pigmented though lol! Read more

I am an essence fan and have really liked these liquid blush tints since using the original Benetint years ago. I'm not sure about the rules of naming brands but I can say this has a doe foot applicator versus the paintbrush style; and I like it because I prefer dotting on this product before blending it out with a brush then my sponge blender. Regardless it is easy to apply and it gives a flushed look that is transfer proof and stays on all day / night. The shade is nearly universal; I haven't met anyone that said it didnt work for them- granted some felt the need to layer it for pigment and others diffused it more but all could wear it with or without other shades. The bottle is small but when it only takes a few dots of product it should easily last you over 6 months or a year. For me, I mix my products and I can say the expiration date came up before I was halfway through it and I used it at least 2 or more times a week! With regard to more expensive but similar products, the quality is still here: it doesn't flake nor dry out, the pigment doesn't change, there is no odor and for some reason it is asking me to comment on the "taste" but please do NOT eat this product!

Perfect Tint, Long-Lasting & Total Dupe for the Benefit One! I’m seriously impressed with this Essence Lip Tint — it’s become one of my favorite go-to products! If you love the Benefit lip tint but don’t love the price, this is such a great dupe at a fraction of the cost. The formula is super lightweight, but it gives just enough color to make your lips and cheeks look naturally flushed and fresh. The tint builds beautifully, and a little goes a long way — one swipe is more than enough for a soft, pretty finish. It doesn’t make my lips dry at all. Because you don’t need to use much, the bottle lasts a long time, making it a great value for the price. Color-wise, it’s very close to the original Benefit tint — that same natural-looking pinkish tone that flatters most skin tones. Plus, it’s super versatile: I’ve used it as a lip stain, a cheek tint, and even dabbed a little on my nose for that sun-kissed look. It blends in seamlessly and gives that effortless glow. And can we talk about the packaging? So cute and compact — perfect for tossing in your bag or makeup pouch. It doesn’t leak, and the applicator is easy to control so you don’t overdo it. If you’re into easy, natural-looking makeup and want a reliable, affordable tint, this is a total gem. I love it and will definitely repurchase! Read more

I was looking for a lip stain that wasn’t too bold and that stayed on for a good portion of the day. And I found it in this product. It goes on light, almost like water and gives a nice subtle pink to my lips. If I want a deeper color, I just add another layer. It’s the only stain I’ve tried that does not dry out my lips and looks natural and I’ve tried a lot of products. This is on repeat order for me and I love giving them as gifts. They make great stocking stuffers. Read more

Very wet and not fast drying. Also has a weird strawberry smell that although should smell good.. doesn't translate right. When it leaks into your mouth after applying (because of the consistency) it feels like you have chemicals in your mouth. All that being said, the application of the product is not patch and can last. It also is a nice tone. I don't find myself using it often though, just because the whole chemically feel/taste. It's a descent cheek color, and doesn't apply very heavy. It's just not something I would buy again to be honest. In the photo you'll see my lips after two application and the 2nd layer not dry yet. You do get good, even coverage. Once it dries, I'd doesn't feel super dry either. It is also buildable. It just feels like kids makeup to me for some reason. Once on your cheeks for a while, it feels itchy. At least for me. So, there are pros and cons for the product. Read more

Absolutely worth it. This is the first stain I’ve tried that works this quickly and lasts this long. I exfoliated my lips first, so after I blotted away the initial application there was absolutely no residue remaining or line settling — only plush pink lips! After blotting the first layer away, I totally recommend adding another right where your lips meet/along the innermost part of the lip. It really makes them pop and adds dimension. Plus this layers so nicely, just make sure your lips are prepped and you get looongg lasting transfer-proof pigment! For reference, I only leave each layer on my lips for like 10 seconds and keep a baby wipe in hand. It works that quickly. When I’m using it as blush or a nose tint I wipe *immediately* after (in circular motions so the pigment looks natural) and repeat that 2-3 times to get the perfect rosey hue. I usually note dryness when attempting lip stains, or they make my lips peel faster regardless of being moisturized and hydrated. Thank goodness that was not the case with this product. A quick, warm, soft bristle toothbrush exfoliation before application — followed by one application of lip butter afterwards — and my lips stayed pillowy soft all day! 10/10 ★ I absolutely recommend! No matter how you choose to prep your lips or moisturize them after, you’ll only find yourself possibly wanting another swipe of lip balm after meals. There is literally no loss of pigment when eating.. and the snacker in me appreciates that LOL Read more
