This product is ok. I really like the consistency and the smell, but I wish the color was a little less sheer.

I have these lip tints in Verbena, Copper, Apricot, Spice, Currant, and Garneta Swirl. Love them! I like to wear lip color, but I also like something sheer and natural looking, that I can apply without a mirror, but that looks "done" and provides color, as well as hydration. These tints fit the bill to a T. They are the consistency of a Chapstick, waxy, and do feel fairly hydrating, but not greasy or oily like many tinted balms. They provide enough color to be used in lieu of a lipstick (I actually threw all of my lipsticks away after buying these!), and the color lasts very well. It fades almost like a lip stain, and doesn't leave your lips feeling dry and parched. They are a tad pricey, but IMHO they are very worth it. Verbena is a nice mauvey pink with a brownish tone, so it is suitable for warm skin. I have fair skin with freckles, auburn hair, and dark eyes, and this color looks great on me, and pairs well with a brown/peachy makeup palette. These also have SPF, so you really can't go wrong. Will definitely repurchase!

These have come such a long way. IIRC, when they first came out, the choice in colors was very limited.

Verbena is the exact shade of pink I have been looking for..perfectly creamy mauvy goodness. My only gripe is the packaging. It would be perfect if it had an angled tip, but I can live with blending it with a lip brush. It feels great on the lips without being too waxy, and it compliments a lot of my lip colors.

I had tried the Lip Tints prior to the reformulation. Frankly don't notice a huge difference, but like them either way. My biggest gripe had been the limited number of available colors, but since they really hit the mark for me with Verbeena, I won't complain anymore. Verbeena is a total YLBB color! Love it and will keep a spare in my purse, car, wherever!
