Most likely, you have already heard more than once about such a beauty product as lip tint. But how does it differ from lipsticks and glosses, what are its main advantages and why it should be added to a makeup artist’s case - we’ll tell you below.

What is lip tint?

Tint is a separate type of lip product, which has significant differences from the lipsticks and glosses we are used to. It is a liquid fluid that gives the lips a light tint. This is the main feature of the product - after application, the lips look as natural and natural as possible, as if the girl had not used cosmetics at all.

Tints provide translucent coverage and are instantly absorbed into the skin of the lips. After application, the client will not feel it, will not “eat it” during dinner and will not smear it with her hand while gesturing or dancing. Thus, tints are ideal for both discreet daytime make-up and wedding, evening or prom make-up .

And although tints look natural on the lips, they contain a huge dose of colored pigments. Thanks to this, the product seems to be imprinted into the skin and remains on the lips for about 5-10 hours.

Benefits of lip tints

Firstly, tints help you achieve the desired makeup effect without makeup. If you use just a couple of drops of the product, no one will notice your neat makeup. The effect of kissed lips is still in trend, which is easiest to achieve with the help of this particular miracle product.

Secondly, tints are distinguished by their saturation and brightness. This allows you to easily create colorful makeup and make your lips look juicy and appetizing. It's all about the amount of product - use it more generously if you want to create a dramatic look.

Thirdly, using tints is very easy and simple. There is no need to outline, layer or shade the product for a long time. All you have to do is apply it on your lips, lightly brush it with a brush so that the tint is absorbed into the skin - and your makeup is ready!

Fourthly, tints are very durable. The girl won't have to renew her makeup after every cup of coffee. The saturation of the shade goes away almost imperceptibly throughout the day - as if the color is gradually being erased with an eraser.

Fifthly, tints are convenient to use not only on the lips, but also asblush on the apples of the cheeks. This trick helps you create a harmonious makeup look with just a few products.

It is also worth highlighting some of the disadvantages of these beauty products. As a rule, tints dry out the skin, so it is important to properly prepare your lips first using a scrub and balm. You won't be able to remove the tint with regular water, as it is very durable. Warn the client that she should use a makeup remover to remove her makeup.

Types of lip tints

Tint lipstick for lips - looks similar to a regular liquid lipstick with an applicator, but has a velvety texture and is not felt at all on the lips. A fairly common type of product with a wide color palette. But lipstick tints most often last only about 5 hours on the lips, then fade away.

Tint-gloss is a more liquid product with a low pigment content. The gloss tint gives a light tint without drying out your lips. This product is great for daytime makeup looks, but after 2-3 hours it will be almost invisible.

Tint film is the most durable type of product that will last on the lips all day. This product has its own application feature: you need to cover your lips with a layer of tint, wait about 10 minutes, and then remove the film that has formed on the surface. In Korea, such lip tints are the most beloved and frequently used.

Tint oil is a product that will not only give your lips a beautiful shade, but also provide complete care. The coverage is not as bright as when using tint lipstick or tint film, but the lips look well-groomed and neat.

How to use lip tint?

First, take care of the skin on your lips. Apply a scrub and remove dead skin particles, then apply a balm. Let it absorb and after 10 minutes remove the excess with a dry cloth.

Apply the tint to your lips using a brush or fingertips using light patting movements, moving from the center to the edges.
