“Kiss thy lips and you will see what thou create.”
― Santosh Kalwar
Our lips don't tan. They just burn and so special attention must be given much like our facial skin, it need to be protected from the sun and it also needs to be moisturized. Licking your lips to lubricate it will not do you any good because of evaporation which leads to further drying of the lips.
Today, I will be reviewing one of the "raved" lip balms in all of Korea, Missha's Glow Tint Lip Balm. I got mine in Vital Pink as I would like to keep my make up clean, fresh and simple.
I'm sorry guys, I don't have the box anymore and mine doesn't look that good since I have already been using it for quite some time but anyway I'll still show you how it looks like in person.
Here is its description and ingredients taken from Missha's website:
I think this lip balm is filled with a whole lot of goodness. Personally, it really moisturizes my lips well and I like its richness but it's also not too sticky. It's just right and perfect for me. It also has an SPF 18 which is really good especially in a tropical country like the Philippines.
This is is claimed to be a dupe for Dior Addict Lip Glow.
How does it looks like applied on your lips?
This is my lips without the lip balm. I put on The Saemm's Pink Water Tint here and tried to create gradient lips but it's not as good with Missha's Glow Tint Lip Balm on.
After applying Missha's Glow Tint Lip Balm on, see how everything blends in creating a moist, well-blended gradient lips.
PROS:
*really moisturizing
*has an SPF 18
*cute packaging
CONS
* a little deceiving with the "tint" on its name when it actually doesn't offer much color
* a bit pricey, I bought it at around P400-P500
FINAL VERDICT:
Eventhough it's a bit pricey but still I love how it blends everything up. It is good in moisturizing my lips and the added protection against the sun is great. I'll rate it as 3.5/5 just because of the price. :)
Didn't know about Missha's lip balm before! Anyway, love the gradient effect on your lips. Too bad the lip balm doesn't really offer the tint. But at least it does its job in moisturizing the lips. -__-"
TumugonBurahinWinter Is on it's way, a good lip balm is the need of the hour and since you say this lip balm is high on moisturising quotient I think it will be perfect for winters.
TumugonBurahinI liked the packaging .. i think most of the expense you are relating to went in their production.
TumugonBurahinFor a lip balm, I find it also pricey for me. But it looks good on you though (I wish you have included your eyes on the pics-just a suggestion:).

Thank you for your suggestion! I will take note of that:D
BurahinThe colour is so light that it seems to be the perfect base for ombre lips!!!
TumugonBurahinI've been reading a lot of reviews about Missha, but I don't know where to get their products. I'm intrigued and would like to try 'em. I like the color of this lip balm.
TumugonBurahinHi sis! I actually am a seller of Korean cosmetics too. If you like I can get Missha products for you. I get my stuff directly from Korea. :d
BurahinI love the cute packaging and the colour! Nicely reviewed dear :)
TumugonBurahinThat is such a pricey lip gloss! But I guess it's because of the SPF18. It does have a good packaging and when I first looked at it, I thought it was a lip stick. Oh marketing. Hehe!
TumugonBurahinThey have a nice packaging. It's simple yet it's catchy.
TumugonBurahinOk I quite like the colour, unfortunately do not think I could get away with it at my age. Tend to stick to neutrals nowadays! Simone x
TumugonBurahinSuch a pretty colour! I love lip balms and lip stains in this fun shade. Great for summer !
TumugonBurahinPerfect Christmas gift for my nieces...
TumugonBurahinThe pink (outer cover) is totally MY colour! It's the type that I will squeal like a bimbo and say, so NICE. But I think the tint is a bit too strong for my liking :(
TumugonBurahinI think this baby pink looks better for teenagers than for mature women. The older, the redder? He he.
TumugonBurahinI've been so intrigued with Missha products. This one sounds good to me.. I might try it out soon! :) Thanks for sharing!
TumugonBurahinThat look so beautiful, Amazing review of the product
TumugonBurahinYou did a great job on the review. I love the colors and the information shared.
TumugonBurahinYou are so right, our lips need special attention and treatment, that is why I would love to try the Misshas glow tint balm that you are reviewing here. I think it revitalizes the skin of the lips and they look so fresh!
TumugonBurahinomg - i just found a reason why I should go back to missha, lol!
