pocelyn review for Universal Lip & Cheek Tint - MLBB

edit: more detailed shade description 💄 #pr / thank you @lavth.official for the free product in exchange for an honest review ☻ ❤️ lavth - universal lip & cheek tint (mlbb) lavth (pronounced love) is a singaporean brand and their tints are made in korea. there are 2 shades - red carpet and mlbb. 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 • very eye-catching! it definitely stands out from the rest of my lippies. the bottom shows the shade of the tint. • it has a small doe foot applicator and picks up just the right amount of product for me. 𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 • slight grapefruit scent from essential oil, also contains limonene. i love grapefruit-scented stuff so this is up my alley! 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐫 / 𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 / 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡 • lightweight texture with a glossy finish • the gloss fades and transitions to a satin finish • the website says it's a rosy brown. but it looks like a muted coral pink to me. it leaves a pink stain. the orange is obvious on me under certain lightings so not the best mlbb shade for my skin tone. 𝐦𝐲 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 • there is a slight tingling (almost stinging) sensation upon application. it seems to make my lips flake with daily use. • i accidentally licked it and it had an initial sweetness with a bitter aftertaste • the stain clings onto the dry bits of my lips which results in uneven application/staining • it dries out my lips even though it’s a glossy tint. my lips feel tight and dry after the gloss wears off. • as a cheek tint, it is very sheer which is perfect for me. it's also easily buildable and blends easily. 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭 • i’d recommend this to those with warm undertones! • S$18.90 for 6.5ml - greater volume than my other lip tints, quite affordable too! • i would not purchase this. my lips get really dry when using lip tints so i prefer thicker and more moisturising formulas. rating: 2.5/5 💄
