[REVIEW] Aritaum Style Pop Juicy Tint in Red Mango
Hello everyone!
I can’t believe my blog is still receiving love *tears*, I barely update anymore due to how busy my personal life has been this past year but I am back and determined to bring better material for you all!! After all I still have my loving followers *tears again*.
Today I’m bringing you all Aritaum’s Juicy Tint in Red Mango, which I got a while back! For those of you who don’t know about Aritaum, it’s another road shop brand from Korea and they have very affordable yet great items. Aritaum, as far as I know is another brand that is owned by Amore Pacific so a lot of the items are almost more inexpensive versions of other brands from Amore Pacific.
This tint comes in a bottle that looks like nail polish. I believe the packaging has changed to regular lip gloss tube kind but correct me if I am wrong. The color I own is called Red Mango and there are 2 more colours from this series.
The cap of the bottle has a little seal on the side so once it is twisted open the seal breaks(?). So, make sure to check on these little details to receive a never used, brand new item.
On the bottom of the bottle you have the production date printed on. Make sure to check the dates to know the freshness of your products. I always mention in my posts but here I go again, date written that ends with 제조 is the production date of this product and date written that ends with 까지 is the expiration date of this product. Most of the Korean brands have the production dates written on cosmetic items however skincare products have expiration dates written mostly.
Back to the lip tint. As I have mentioned before this tint comes in a bottle that is very similar to a nail polish bottle and it is glass. I am not sure if I like this kind of packaging for a lip tint but I like the fact that the bottle is glass even though it has the danger of breaking.
Just like a nail polish the cap of the bottle is a twist off kind. Now, the cap once you twist it close is very tight and secure BUT I hate the fact that this tint does not have a stopper! WHAT IF.... What if, you accidentally knock this down?! It didn’t happen to me but honestly it can and I do not want to deal with that. Not just that but the fact that there is no stopper to control the amount that the applicator has is also not very good. From my recent online research I am pretty sure that the packaging has changed and I believe this is the very reason for it.
The applicator of this tint is just like any lip gloss applicator. It is very thin and due to the fact that there is no stopper on the bottle this applicator carries a lot of the product.
Enough with my rant on the packaging and on to the lip tint it self, I LOVE the colour, the consistency however, is very water like so it does sit in the creases of the lip which I don’t like a lot so I recommend intense hydration if you have very dry lips like me. However, it is very easy to apply and blend it out. It also dries very quickly which is a plus for me. I also love the fact that it is a very sheer tint which is what I love for lip tints to be. Maybe I am a bit biased with this product because I have been looking for this exact colour lip tint for a while and this was the only one I could find.
The Pinkage model in the photo above started my love for this certain colour of lip tints. I purchased the Etude House Colour Pop tint but it was not the one I was looking for, to achieve what I see on this model. This colour is exactly what I see on this model and I’m very happy that I found the colour I have been looking for.
As I have mentioned before this tint has a very thin liquid almost water like consistency so I had high hopes with it being waterproof maybe and definitely lasting long. However, as you can see in the photo above I have put this tint to a water test by keeping my hand under water for about 5-10 seconds and the tint immediately started washing off, leaving me with a very faint stain. Due to the consistency I was thinking that it would stay on for a long time and especially withstand water but apparently I had high expectations. Usually with my other tints with such consistency (Tony Moly! Great tints.) they stay on for so long that it stains my lips for 2 days, which I like and sometimes don’t like.
I still wiped away the tint with my Biore cleansing water even though I am pretty sure I did not even need that because this tint is very easy to take off. Honestly, I am being very easy on this tint just because I like the color of it. Especially, on top of concealed lips the color is exactly what I want when I want to create gradation effect on my lips but, I really don’t like the fact it washes away really quick. So you definitely need to re-apply during the day.
I also recommend that you moisturize your lips prior to application of this tint or any other because this type of consistency tend to dry out lips and sit in the creases of the lips more than any other lip products.
I only recommend this tint if you really like the colour like I do. Other than that there are many more tints out there that you can purchase and will do a better job than this does. So, I do not think that I would repurchase this when I run out of it but definitely try to find a better tint that is this colour. If you have any recommendations let me know please!
Thank you for reading my blog. Please like, share and follow to show support. I will definitely bring more and better posts in the future.
