My HG lip and cheek tint has always been Etude House Dear Darling Tint in 02 (red), when it was cheap at ₱198 a pop. But then the price went up to ₱298 and that is capitalist crime! (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

So when I saw Tony Moly had a similar product at only ₱278, i went ahead and tried it. The color is a rich, deep, true red. I can’t be bothered much about the packaging, the Etude House tint was 200x prettier, but anyway..

I hate apples. The doe-foot applicator packs a lot of product on, so be careful, because…

THIS THING STAINS! and by that, i mean, STAINSSS! Here i put a drop of it on my hand. It’s runny and more liquid than the Etude House tint, but the color is indeed richer and fuller.

I was looking for a nice sunny spot in my room to take a picture of it and by the moment i blended it, it had already left a heart-shaped stain on my hand! (≧ ∇ ≦)  so be careful when you put it on, blend it in completely and quickly. My fingers were also red after (≧ ∇ ≦)  

Lip and cheek tints are sought after because it can make your lips appear as so, like a ball-jointed doll:

I stole the following photo from google:

Here’s a gradual application of it in the next series of photos. The technique is to put the product on the INNER PART of your lips, have it stay there for a while and then blend it out, so your lips will have a doll-like color (◕‿◕✿)

I tried putting it on completely and it’s really red. I mean juicy bitten apple red!

Also tried it on my cheek. This thing is really packed with color, a tiny dot on each cheek was all i needed for this:
