ETUDE DEAR DARLING OIL TINT 03 NEON PINK 4.2G

Get the best of both worlds: the vibrant, long-lasting colour of a tint and the nourishing moisture of a lip oil. This tint glides on smoothly to deliver a vivid, glossy "Neon Pink" hue that instantly brightens your complexion. Its hydrating formula keeps lips comfortable and plump, making it a perfect choice for Mauritius's warm climate where traditional lipsticks can feel heavy or drying.

This is a moisturizing lip tint for anyone who loves a vibrant, glossy pout but dislikes the dry, tight feeling of matte or water-based tints. The ETUDE Dear Darling Oil Tint combines rich pigments with a blend of hydrating oils to create a comfortable, high-shine finish.

• Texture: Smooth, lightweight oil-gel that isn't sticky.
• Finish: High-shine, glossy, and juicy-looking.
• Colour: #03 Neon Pink is a bright, cool-toned pink that makes a statement.
• Longevity: The glossy layer will transfer but leaves behind a soft, even pink stain that lasts for hours.
• Best for: Dry or chapped lips; creating the popular K-beauty gradient lip; adding a pop of fresh colour.

1. Prep Lips: Start with clean, dry lips. If you have any flakiness, gently exfoliate first.
2. Apply Tint: Use the doe-foot applicator to apply a small amount to the center of your lips.
3. Blend & Finish: Press your lips together to blend or use a fingertip to smudge the colour outwards for a soft, gradient effect. For a bolder look, apply a full, even layer.

Note: Already own a lip tint or balm? It's mindful to finish that one first before opening a new one. Substitute, don't stack unnecessarily.

This versatile tint can be worn in multiple ways.

Application Styles

• For a Gradient "Just-Bitten" Look: Dab a small amount onto the inner center of your lips. Use your fingertip or a small brush to gently blend the colour outwards, leaving the edges of your lips soft and diffused.
• For a Full, Glossy Lip: Use the edge of the doe-foot applicator to trace your lip line, then fill in the rest of your lips with an even coat. For a more intense colour and shine, wait a minute and apply a second layer.
• As a Cheek Tint: Dab 1-2 small dots on the apples of your cheeks and blend out immediately with your fingers. Work quickly as the tint can stain.

Makeup Tips (No Pilling or Feathering)

• For the smoothest application, gently exfoliate lips with a lip scrub beforehand.
• If you have very dry lips, apply a thin layer of lip balm and blot it off before applying the tint.
• To prevent feathering around the mouth, you can use a clear lip liner or apply a tiny amount of concealer around your lip line before the tint.
• Wait for the tint to set for a minute before drinking to minimize transfer.

Safety

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use and consult a doctor if a rash or irritation develops and persists. Do not use on broken skin.

• Immediately: Lips appear vibrant with a juicy, high-shine gloss. They feel moisturized and comfortable, not sticky or dry.
• After 1-2 Hours: The initial high gloss will settle into a soft sheen. The colour remains vibrant and lips still feel hydrated.
• After 4-6 Hours (including light eating/drinking): The glossy topcoat will have mostly worn off, but a beautiful, even pink stain will remain on the lips. Your lips won't feel tight or chapped as they might with other long-wear tints.

• Works Well With:
  • Lip Balm: Apply a thin layer of balm and blot before using the tint for extra hydration on very dry days.
  • Clear Lip Gloss: Apply on top for an extra-juicy, glass-like finish.
  • Lip Liner: Use a matching or clear lip liner to create a sharp, defined lip shape and prevent any potential colour bleeding.
• Use With Caution:
  • Matte Liquid Lipsticks: Layering an oil tint over a matte lipstick can cause the matte formula to break down and become patchy. It's better to use one or the other.

• All Lip Types: Suitable for everyone.
• Dry / Chapped Lips: Excellent. The oil-based formula provides necessary moisture and comfort, while the colour doesn't cling to or emphasize dry patches like matte formulas can.
• Sensitive Lips: Generally well-tolerated, but as it contains fragrance, a patch test is always recommended for those with known sensitivities.

• Dry or chapped lips that need both colour and moisture.
• Dull, pale lips needing a vibrant and fresh wash of colour.
• Desire for a long-lasting lip stain without the drying effect of water or alcohol-based tints.
• Achieving a youthful, glossy, "juicy" lip look popular in K-beauty.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a small amount of the tint to a discreet area, such as the inside of your wrist or behind your ear.
2. Wait 24 hours to observe any reaction. Check again at 48 and 72 hours for any delayed sensitivity.
3. If you experience any redness, itching, swelling, or burning, do not use the product on your lips.

Who should be cautious: Individuals with a known allergy to cosmetic dyes, fragrances, or specific botanical oils should perform a patch test before use.

• Texture: A smooth, slightly viscous gel-oil that glides easily across the lips without feeling heavy or goopy.
• Finish: High-shine and glossy upon application, settling into a soft, stained sheen over time.
• Scent: A pleasant, sweet, and fruity aroma that is noticeable during application but fades shortly after.

• Problem: The colour looks patchy or clings to dry spots.
  • Solution: Gently exfoliate your lips with a lip scrub before application to create a smooth canvas. You can also apply a thin layer of lip balm and blot it off before the tint.
• Problem: The colour is bleeding or feathering outside my lip line.
  • Solution: Use a clear or matching lip liner to create a barrier. Alternatively, apply a smaller amount of product, focusing on the center and blending outwards.
• Problem: The glossy shine doesn't last long enough.
  • Solution: The high-shine finish is designed to wear down naturally, leaving a stain. To prolong the gloss, you can top it up with a clear gloss or reapply a thin layer of the tint after a few hours.

The Dear Darling Oil Tint is exceptionally well-suited for the Mauritian climate.

• Humidity-Friendly: Its lightweight, non-sticky formula feels comfortable and breathable in high humidity, unlike thick, heavy glosses.
• Hydrating: The oil-based formula helps counteract dryness caused by sun, wind, and air-conditioning, keeping lips from feeling chapped.
- Long-Lasting Stain: The tinting effect is perfect for long, warm days. Even after the gloss fades from eating or drinking, a beautiful stain remains, requiring minimal touch-ups.

"The oil tint is so comfortable and not drying at all, unlike some water tints I've tried. It feels more like a nourishing lip oil with great colour payoff."

- Reddit, r/AsianBeauty review (2024-09)

A YesStyle reviewer mentioned, "I love the juicy look it gives my lips. The Neon Pink is very bright and fresh, perfect for summer. The gloss is beautiful and it leaves a nice stain behind."

- YesStyle review (2025-01)

An Amazon customer noted a fair caveat: "The gloss doesn't last through a heavy meal, but the tint definitely does. You'll need to reapply if you want to maintain that high-shine look all day, but the colour stays put."

Is the ETUDE Dear Darling Oil Tint sticky?

No, it's designed to be lightweight and comfortable. While it has a glossy finish, it is much less sticky than a traditional thick lip gloss.

How is an oil tint different from a water tint?

An oil tint is significantly more moisturizing and provides a glossy finish. A water tint offers a more natural, matte stain but can sometimes be drying for those with chapped lips.

Is the "Neon Pink" colour very bright?

Yes, as the name suggests, it is a vibrant, cool-toned pink. You can apply a sheer layer for a softer look or build it up for a bold, neon pop of colour.

Does the tint transfer?

The glossy top layer will transfer onto cups or masks. However, it is formulated to leave a strong stain behind on your lips, so you will still have colour even after the shine has faded.

Best For:

Individuals looking for a bold, glossy lip colour that is also hydrating and comfortable for all-day wear.

Key Benefits:

• Provides intense, vibrant colour with a high-shine finish.
• Moisturizing oil formula prevents lips from drying out.
