ETUDE Fixing Tint #05 Midnight Mauve| Long Lasting High Pigmented Liquid Lipstick |Waterproof Lightweight Matte Finish Lip Stain| Full Coverage

As a seasoned lip tint enthusiast, ETUDE's Fixing Tint in #05 Midnight Mauve caught my attention, and I must say, it's a game-changer. Blurring the lines between lipstick and lip tint, this product offers a unique and satisfying blend of glamour and comfort. While some might argue it leans a bit more towards lipstick, I found the balance to be just right. The high pigmentation delivers a bold and long-lasting color, reminiscent of a classic lipstick, but without the heavy, cakey feel. The lightweight formula glides on smoothly, creating a velvety texture that feels surprisingly gentle on the lips. What sets this tint apart is its staying power. The rich hue of Midnight Mauve stayed vibrant throughout the day, surviving meals and sips with impressive resilience. The applicator also deserves a nod for its precision, allowing for easy and controlled application. In conclusion, if you're seeking a lip product that combines the best of both lipstick and lip tint worlds, ETUDE's Fixing Tint #05 Midnight Mauve is worth a try. It strikes the perfect balance between high-pigmented color and a comfortable, feather-light feel, leaving your lips looking and feeling fabulous.

This is my favorite lip tint! On me, the color is 'your lips but better', soft, natural, and super flattering. The stain lasts and fades beautifully without settling into lip lines, especially when I apply just a little and blend it out. It doesn’t dry out my lips (I do use a balm underneath), and it smells lovely too. The quality is amazing for the price! I loved it so much, I even went back and got another shade. Definitely recommend!

This goes in very smooth and the color looks great. It goes on glossy, but dries to a Matt look. It’s fairly inexpensive as well. If you put on too much, it’s very easy to remove. However, it’s not exactly long lasting. It seems like a normal lip tint and wears off fairly quickly.

I always shied away from lipsticks and lip color because of the hassle of reapplying. I was more of a tinted lip balm kind of girl. I’m so happy to have found these fixing tints and they’re a game changer for me. I am very fair skinned (MAC NW15) and I own and love most of the shades. I know some folks had mentioned that some of the shades are too similar, but my own lips are not very pigmented naturally, and so I can tell the difference between all the shades when wearing them. Maybe the natural pigmentation of your own lips is what determines if the shades look the same on you or not. Anyway, if you love the NARS velvet matte lip pencil in Dolce Vita, I recommend you try Midnight Mauve or Salmon Brick in the fixing tint, as they really remind me of Dolce Vita. For an even closer match I will layer some Dusty Beige on top of the Midnight Mauve or Salmon Brick. I just love having a Dolce Vita dupe in a long wearing formula. For application, what worked best for me was following guidance I saw on YouTube: dot a small amount in the center of your lips and use your ring finger to blend it out on your lips. Let it dry a few seconds and repeat 1-2 times for more intense color. If you try to apply it the same way you would with, for example, an opaque Sephora matte liquid lipstick, where you paint it on with the wand, I don’t think you’ll like the results. These fixing tints really work best being blended out, as it brings out the true color and gives lips a pillowy soft, comfortable feeling and appearance. EDIT: I added a photo comparing NARS Dolce Vita velvet matte lip pencil with 1 layer of Etude Fixing Tint in Midnight Mauve, let dry, then 1 layer of the fixing tint in Dusty Beige on top. Hope this helps!! EDIT2: Try them over lip liner for color adjustment and more longevity! I was worried the Smoky Cherry fixing tint might be too bright for my complexion because it’s kind of a hot pink. So I took a Revlon lip liner in Mauve and filled in my lips completely with it, then dabbed the Smoky Cherry fixing tint on top with my ring finger. This transformed the hot pink fixing tint into a totally wearable medium pink shade, and the lip liner underneath made it last longer. Hooray!

I was looking for a cheaper alternative to one of the stain and peel products I’ve found and decided to give this a try. The pigment was nice and it did stay overnight without being actively wiped off/removed. But I didn’t like the tacky feeling and couldn’t really rub my lips together. It definitely wasn’t “kiss proof” and noticed lip color on my straw. It’s a nice product but I don’t think I’ll buy again, I’ll just stick to the Wonderskin brand I really like for a good lip stain that I can add gloss/chap stick over

I was looking for a lip stain to wear for a party the night before and realized I hated the lip products I currently had. I stumbled upon this lip stain and let me tell you, it’s a game changer!! Not only was it the exact shade I was looking for, it matched perfectly with my skin natural lip color. As someone of Asian descent with two toned lips, this was able to tone down my darker pigments on my top lips to match the rest of my lips. And it stayed put!! I did have to apply a second coat on my top lip for maximum coverage, but once it dried it didn’t budge until I started to eat something oily. Touch up was very simple to do and I only needed a smidge of product to accomplish that. I will have to stock up on more of these!! Shade: midnight mauve

This is surprisingly nice! I can't wear many longwear lip stains due to dryness or peeling or allergic reactions, but this causes no problems for me so far. I doesn't last forever, but it's pretty nice for a good while. I have Midnight Mauve and Rose Blending. The Cover Girl Outlast Moisturizing Topcoat is nice over the top.

I would compare this to some of the name brand long lasting lip colors I have tried, but I honestly like this one better. There aren't really any steps I use other than to apply and it is makes it very quick and easy to do without multiple steps. It is also significantly cheaper along with easily lasting most of the day. I would buy again. I don't think it really moisturizes, but it doesn't dry my lips out either like others have and I often wear alone without any gloss on top. It is a bit more sheer than others also making it look more natural which I like.

If you read the instructions properly and trust the process then this works fantastically. I used this on a bedroom window for privacy. As I do dialysis in this room everyday privacy was a necessity for me. Obviously be aware that if the light is on in your room then people outside will be able to view inside.

Nice

El producto ha llegado muy bien envuelto. El color es precioso y queda genial una vez puesto. Todavía no he probado cuánto tiempo dura pero no se va fácilmente.

Questa tinta labbra è la migliore che abbia provato non secca le labbra anzi le rende morbide e non appiccicose ho ordinato della stessa marca anche burro e un altra tinta ma lucida mi devono arrivare e dopo farò la mia recensione

It is just what I wanted. A good price and quality. I want to control the color intense, it is easy to mix as it doesn't stain immediatly. I use #5 and #3. It goes beautiful with my skin color (Olive skin). I have an oily to mixed skin type, so I apply it twice a day on my cheeks if I intent to wear it for long hours. I wear it as a lipstick sometimes. It's a matt color. I loved it.
