Cold refreshing things are what we always need and dream of
in summer, right? Unless you are living in a tropical country like me, which in
my case, I always need and want and dream of cold refreshing things. Holika
holika tried to fulfill this dream for me… I mean, all of us, cosmetic lovers…
Waterdrop tint stick promises fresh colors and tint… super
summer appropriate! Of 5 colors, I picked number 4 - Waterdrop strawberry.
The packaging is simple glossy plastic tube with color
coordinated shade as the lip color inside. The tube feels kinda light and
cheap.
Waterdrop strawberry is cool toned medium bright pink. Very cheerful. When
applied, it does feel like I’m applying water on my lips… refreshing indeed…
but not menthol/minty refreshing feel. It has light strawberry bubblegum
fragrance when applied, it dissipates quickly after application. And I cant
detect any taste too.
The product however, is a little bit hard to control,
especially if you have dry lips like mine… the lip swatches made here is done
direct from tube… see how the product tend to clump on dry patches of my lips?
But I can easily even the tint up with few swipes and taps with my fingertips.
A bit warning though… this lip color stains easily. So, expect pink tinted
fingertip.
The nice thing is building color is very easy and the color
is transparent, therefore there’s no risk of looking like you are wearing too
much lipstick here.
Staining power of this tint is good. It stays put until the
end of the day. It doesn’t dry up my lips. I prefer to top it with a nice
moisturizing balm or gloss, since my lips is super dry.
Bottomline…
Nice addition for my summer make up box. Color is cheerful,
staying power is good. Too bad the packaging is tad too flimsy for my taste.
