ETUDE Dear Darling Water Tint #4 Red Grapefruit Ade (9g) | Vivid Color Lip Stain with Moisturizing Weightless & Non-sticky Finish Lip Stain | Korean Makeup, Kbeauty

I wear this every day!! I’m on my second bottle - they last me ~1 year. Not sticky, watery & highly pigmented formula (careful not to spill it!). It doesn’t clog pores, rarely ever transfers and never smudges after everything is dried down, and literally lasts 24 full hours (probably more if I didn’t wash my face). Perfect long-lasting wear, effortless makeup.My application:- I put a dot of light-weight moisturizer on each cheek, then a dot or two of this tint on top and rub it into my cheekbones wherever I would want blush coverage. (be careful to put it on top of the moisturizer and move kinda fast - it will stain your cheeks as a dot if you leave it there).- I do this at night, and I haven’t noticed any transfer, but I do aim for a pinker tint than I want so that it’s faded to my ideal color by morning. If it’s still too pink in the morning just put some water on your face and towel dry.As blush color: it’s perfect. literally no notesAs lip color: I use it to fill in some corners or as a liner, but I blend/wipe it in so it’s not too pink. I prefer a brown/purple/mauve color for my lips, but that’s just me. This would function well as a lip tint if you like the color. Etude..if you’re listening…make a cool-toned mauve color for my lips pls <3

This lip stain goes a long way. The color is bright and you can make it brighter by using more than one coat. It has a nice smell. It does bleed a little, but easy to fix. It’s long lasting.

ETUDE!!!! Love all of their products but have been using this lip tint for 2 years now. Long lasting. Non drying. Beautiful shade and easy application.

I love the subtle tint and you could use a little or a lot to get the color you're aiming for. Only a color tint so NOT moisturizing and lord help you if you have cracked lips making for uneven color. Smudge proof for sure, but does not last as long as I would have expected - you may get an hour or two at most before needing a refresh. The thing that sticks out the most is the taste! It smells pretty good, but tastes bitter like drinking perfume. Overall decent product, worth the money, but maybe not for everyone.

I ordered the #4 Red Grapefruit Ade for my pale, cool-toned skin. It comes out to be a slightly berry pink color on me that I can build to a deeper berry if desired. It is very watery, but I expected that. It smells like Kool-Aid, but the smell fades very quickly. I made sure my lips were clean, and free of balm, and not flakey, and then I lined around the perimeter with a neutral lip pencil. I made sure to remove any drippy excess from the applicator by dragging it against the inside of the bottle neck. I put on one layer, and let it dry, and it is very pigmented so I could wear it that way, but I did deepen it with a second coat since I was going out to run some errands. After it dried completely, I patted some castor oil over the top of it to protect from dryness since it was cold and windy. The castor oil absorbed into my lips without removing the stain. The stain lightened a bit over the day but was still very visible even after eating a full meal, and drinking coffee. I have since ordered 2 more of these in the same color. I love this product.

Color is for a preteen. Fake fruit smell. Doesn't really even stain for long either. I returned it. Looks cheap on and bleeds. It looks like you just ate a cherry popsicle or redhots.

I’ve been though a lot of lip stains, and this has GOT to be the BEST! From the price, to the quality, to the texture, and to the longevity this lip stain is a MUST BUY. I wear this lip stain every day now and still have no complaints. It applies super nicely and it watery so it adds some moisture to your lips as well as soaks deep beneath your skin and fast! I don’t usually apply a lot because the color is so vibrant but even the small amount that I do apply lasts me hoursssss! Be careful though, because this lip stain is NOT easy to remove- if you accidentally go over your lip line it will stay there for quite some time- even with rigorous scrubbing. The smell is also quite nice- smells like berries. I wear this to the river sometimes- and it lasts me pretty long out there so I love it!Overall, definitely recommend! It’s going to be better than any expensive lip stain you can find!

It's very watery and wipes off easily even when dry. It also has an unpleasant chemical taste & there's no ingredient list. You have no idea what you are smearing on your lips, which will eventually end up in your mouth. Gave 2 stars because it does work well as a cheek tint and even a lid tint, but use extreme caution if you use around your eyes to not get it in your eyes. I use as more of a highlight on the outer portion of the lid. A little goes a very long way.
