FAQ

What's the difference between a tint and a tinted balm?

Tints stain for long, MLBB wear; tinted balms give sheer color with more shine and comfort.

How do I stop lip tint from drying out my lips?

Prep with a balm first, or layer a gloss on top for comfort and shine.

Can I layer these lip products?

Yes — a tint for staying power with a gloss on top is the classic K-beauty combo.

Which lasts through eating and drinking?

Water and juicy tints last best; reapply balms and glosses as needed.
