Loreal has launched new lip tints in India this Cannes festival.I was on a lipstick ban these days but as you know this new launch was so exciting that I couldn't help myself.I have seen this concept in eyeshadows and eyebrow enahncers but for a lipstick, it is totally new to me.
Price: Rs 1050 for 0.9 gm

Lip Tint Caresse is not like a regular lipstick in the bullet or liquid form but is in a powdered form where the powder sits in the cap and has a sponge applicator.The concept of cushion applicator is to create the Korean ombre lips which looks awkward on Indian lips.I prefer filling my lips with the shade rather than creating a gradient.
The lipstick has a long sleek look with a rose gold and color coded ombre.It is light weight and is sturdy for traveling.A packaging glitch can be easily spotted as the cap which stores the lipstick has no color coding or any label to it, in case you own more than one of these lippies you can easily mix the cap with some other shade.
The sponge tip is of good quality which easily fills lips.I need to dip it in cap 2-3 times for that opaque look.With a powder matte finish, the formula feels comfortable and creamy on lips without drying them.It doesn't crumbles or flakes and has a nice even finish like a lip stain which I am quite fond of.The color payoff is medium to buildable but for this particular shade, I wouldn't say that it is super pigmented.That typical loreal lipstick smell with a hint of sweetness describes the fragrance of lipstick.
Peach Blossom is a soft pink everyday shade which is nowhere close to peach.The shade suits my complexion well but I wish I picked some other shade as I wanted an MLBB shade.I tested this shade on my friends who are quite fair and it looks pretty on them as well.
Lip Tint Caresse is basically a lip stain which can also be tripled as an eyeshadow and a blush.It transfers very slightly, doesn't stain my lips and stays for like 3-4 hours.I have heard many bloggers say that it stays for around 6-7 hours but at least not for me, maybe because I have a habit of lip licking.Also, it doesn't survive oily eatables.
My ratings:4/5
Overall I would say that Loreal Lip Tint Caresse is a new concept powdered lipstick to try.The formula is decently pigmented and has a comfortable matte finish but I wish it slightly stained my lips since it is a lip stain.For the price it is quite expensive and go ahead only if you want to try something new.If budget is not an issue one can surely experiment.
