Obnoxiously long review summary: non-drying, awesome pigment, builds easily, transfer-proof! 10/10★
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

Perfect for everyday!
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!

Long lasting
My daughter originally purchased & didn’t care for the color on her, so she gave it to me. I loved the color on me. The bottle she gave me was almost empty, so I purchased it for myself. I purchased the same color, but this one is a little brighter & bolder, it’s borderline too bright for me. However, it now lasts for @ 1/2 the day, instead of an hour or two. So I definitely like it better than before. I will definitely repurchase & recommend this to others.

Great product, great price
I am literally obsessed. Great product. My daughter said it is an excellent dupe for benefit? But I haven’t tried that I only ever have used this and I love it. I don’t use it on my cheeks just my lips and it’s a great stain

Very wet when applying but dries quickly.
Exactly as described. perfect size to travel with or carry in purse. I applied one coat to try out and it feels very light, not pasty or thick. one coat is just right and gives a perfect tint of color. if you want to wear it brighter then applying two or more is optional after each coat drys depending on your skin hue. Feels moist after drying. Looks like a rubby red wine color in bottle and has a sweet scent like a fruity red wine. Smooth application of product.

Lightweight, Natural Finish – Great Value for a Dual-Purpose Tint
I purchased the essence | What a Tint! Lip & Cheek Tint after looking for an affordable product that could add a natural flush to both my lips and cheeks—and it definitely delivers.The formula is lightweight and easy to blend, especially on the cheeks. It gives a soft, healthy glow that doesn’t look overdone. On the lips, it applies smoothly and gives a nice tint that lasts several hours without feeling sticky or drying. It’s more of a sheer wash of color than a bold pigment, which I personally prefer for everyday use.✅ What I Liked:• Dual-use product saves space and time• Natural, buildable color• Doesn’t clog pores or irritate sensitive skin• Affordable price point• Compact and travel-friendly❌ What Could Be Improved:• Color fades more quickly on lips compared to cheeks, especially after eating or drinking• May require reapplication for longer wearOverall, I’m very happy with this purchase. It’s a great option if you’re looking for something easy, natural, and budget-friendly. I’ll likely repurchase and recommend it to others who prefer a fresh-faced, minimalist makeup look.
