Apologies for my absence! I've spent the last week moving back into my uni house and it's a little hectic! Anyway, on Friday, I went shopping, and, among other things, came back with this:
Yep, I spent all my holiday tutoring money on an iPhone! But it's worth it :)
On the left, I simply drew a small line with the brush and on the right you can see a pink smudge where I blended a dot out...this dries SUPER fast so you have to work really quickly, the first swatch had dried by the time I took the photo. This also does not come off, when I first bought it the lid wasn't on properly and my fingers ended up bright pink and stayed that way for ages.
Despite this...I love it. I love the brightness it adds to my face, as lots of blushers take a lot of work to show up on my skin for some reason, yet this is instant and (if I'm quick enough to blend it) looks great (in my opinion!). It's perfect for a lovely, natural rosy-cheeked look and it smells a lot like roses (and a lot like my Benetint lip balm...).
It does dry out the lips a little so I'd recommend using a lip balm on top of it so your lips aren't completely parched. Below are some pics I took of me wearing the tint on my lips and cheeks. I figured since it's so bright I'd keep my make-up relatively simple everywhere else so I'm just wearing foundation, mascara and this:
I think overall I'm most impressed with this product due to the price...it retails in Superdrug for a mere £4.99! My sister Nat has just got the same product in Poppytint so keep an eye on her blog for a review of that!

poppy tint is great, I am loving it and used it in my klassenfoto ^^ btw your iphone pics are cool :D
ReplyDeleteHey Dani!
ReplyDeleteHow does it compare to benefit's benetint/posytint? I've been trying to find a tint that's as good as those but not as expensive with no luck as of yet!

Hi Grace :)
ReplyDeleteI've only ever swatched benetint, although I do have the lipbalm version and this lasts as long as benetint and even longer than the lipbalm! I'd say for the price this is really good and for a fiver it's worth testing out against benetint :)

lovely I shall give it a go! x
ReplyDeleteAlso I know Models Own and Collection 2000 do versions which seem to be slightly more red, so you could test those out too :) xx
