I love lipstick like the next girl (or guy), but I find myself either just reaching for nude shades or often just going without, and one of the reasons is I love to graze during the day at work. (Food, not lipstick!) That and leaving lipstick markings on my water bottle grosses me out… I’m definitely not the girl who likes leaving a lipstick mark on my hot chocolate cup in the morning 🙂
So you’d think I’d be addicted to tints, but I’m really not and that’s because of how difficult I find them to apply. They rarely go on smoothly, always patchy and sink into my fine lines etc. Worse if you suffer from dry lips too!
Fortunately I haven’t found this to be the case at all with YSL’s new Volpute Tint in Oil. Essentially, its tinted lip oil that comes with an applicator perfectly shaped to my lips. Application is just amazing, thanks to the oil formula it just glides on like a dream. Especially since my lips have a tendency to be a bit dry, it helps hydrate my lips whilst giving them an even tinted coverage.
Now you can either leave the oil on, which helps keep your lips hydrated for longer but does wear the colour down a bit faster. Or after 10 mins, remove the oil to reveal a beautiful saturated lip stain.
This product is amazing and I highly recommend it to those of you who want some colour to the lips, minus the hassle of it rubbing off easily during the day and those who have not had great experiences with traditional lip tints. Definitely give this a go! No surprises, I’m looking to “invest” in additional shades 🙂 (because more makeup is what I need!)
If you’re keen, you can pick this up online in the States for $32USD or locally in Australia for $49AUD.
