ETUDEDear Darling Oil Tint #8 Red Candy 4.2g | High Moisturizing and Strong Hydrating Lip Oil/Lip Gloss | Smooth and Moist Lips | Non-Sticky Lip Oil Tint For Dry Lips | Korean Makeup

I happen to really like this. A LOT. There is a nice hydrating feel to it, with a pop of color (Real Cherry) that is just really pretty to me. Keep in mind that it is a gloss first and foremost, so the coloring may not last long. But it sure deposits some color that lingers! Great coverage, buildable, and I find that it stays in place.Of course it all comes down to preference and such. There is a really negative review, which is fine, we all have our own experiences.. but dont let that take away from all the positive reviews. Whether people bought it (like me) or tried it for "free" (no incentive to give good reviews in my experience), some of us will really like it, and some wont.My skin: fair, cool toned, 40 something. Real Cherry is very red, blue based for cool skin tones. Little more red than I am used to but I really like it.What I REALLY Like it for is for use ON TOP of "water tint" lip products which deposit long lasting tint, but can feel drying. I actually bought this for use on top of that. But I also like this used alone. I do notice that it will wear away at the center like a lipstick does. So it may need to be applied more often if going to be out and about. I definitely recommend their suggestion to apply 2-3 times. I blot a little in between to help get that color in place. Would be pretty over lip liner too.

This product was released with little to no fanfare but I honestly think it deserves a lot of hype! The packaging looks unassuming and even a bit inelegant but this tint has effectively filled a gap that has long existed in my collection. I’ve been snooping around for a sheerer, non-makeup-y tint that wasn’t a water tint (wanted a texture where moisture wouldn’t be prone to dissipating) and decided on a whim to purchase this. I’m so glad I did! It’s probably been nearly a decade at this point that Etude House (now Etude) released the cherry moisture lip glows—tinted lip oils that looked amazing but left no stain and were quite slippy. I think in my subconscious I’ve been chasing after that look and effect but in a product that has more lasting power, both in texture and stain. From the times I’ve used this oil tint it has proved to be a worthy contender! The effect on the lips is reminiscent of the sheerly tinted, ethereally glowy look that the cherry moisture lip glows imparted, but the gel-oil texture means that it actually stays put on the lips. It’s also very moisturizing and nourishing. It’ll obviously wipe off if you rub your lips or eat, but an even, unostentatious stain will remain. I can see people having qualms with the amount of product the applicator holds, but I think it’s great for controlling the amount you use. I purchased the shade sweet apple, which is a very apt name. It’s a neutral-leaning red shade with elements of orange and pink that develops to be a bit more pink after some time, but not to the extent that it’s unrecognizable. It’s a very flattering shade that will suit a ton of people, especially on no makeup days. I highly recommend trying this out!

Pros:- Smooth and comfortable application with no sticky feeling.- Vibrant, long-lasting color with a natural finish.- Moisturizing formula that keeps lips hydrated.- Pleasant, mild scent.Cons:- Limited shade range.- Not transfer-proof, may need reapplication.- Packaging feels a bit flimsy.- Can emphasize lip lines or wrinkles.Overall: A great hydrating lip tint with beautiful color, but the transfer and packaging could be improved.

I bought it on a whim and it has exceeded every expectation. It is not sticky and it makes my lips soft. The shine and the color are like something out of this world. They’re very retro and very cool. Don’t waste money on other lip oils this is the absolute number one top lip oil in the world!I just received the second color and it is lighter than the cherry, but every bit as vivid and juicy withoutbeing outrageous or Dayglow. Just imagine your favorite lip color but cheer, and that stays on for hours. It never makes my lips feel dried out, and Iam obsessively applying lip balm to my lips whenI’m wearing something else or nothing on my lips. I hesitate to say any more good about this product because before I know it, it will be out of stock from all my good reviews!!!!By the way, I learned about this lip oil from Erin Parsons I believe. I want to give credit where credit is due. I just wish they made more colors because I just want them all even though I can only wear oneat a time. Maybe a clear sparkly one as a topper would be a good addition… Thank you for making this product. I really love it! (I I have never posted a photograph of myself wearing a product beforeand I probably never will again. I just wanted you to see how glorious this color is.!!!!!.Last Edit; I just got the raspberry color in the mail and it’s exactly what you’d expect from a color called raspberry. It’s true to its name and it’s true to this company‘s lip oil. They also make a day, glow pink color, ‘ red’ color that’s virtually colorless, and ‘pink’ color. I think these last two colors are extremely lightly colored, so they’d be great for someone who doesn’t actually want color. I may get some for when I’m sitting around at home.

I own this in #3 Neon Pink, #6 Pink Oil and #2 Plum Berry. They’re plump but not sticky. They feel very moisturising. There is no taste. They don’t last through much drinking, but overall I like them a lot.#3 is very pigmented and leaves a decent lasting stain.#6 is basically clear with the tiniest hint of pink.Both are true to their appearance on the website.However, #2 Plum Berry is neither plum nor berry. It’s a very flat brownish maroon red. I can’t speak to its other qualities because the colour was just too garish on me. Sent it back immediately.
