SKINFOOD Tomato Jelly Tint Lip Review

Hello~ I am back with a review of one of my favorite lip tints/tint balms! 
My friend CSI gave these to me around my birthday last year. 
I've been using this lip tint for about six months now and I am still a big fan of it! 


Description:  
This lip tint gel with tomato extract nourishes and moisturizes lips, while giving a long-lasting flush to lips.


Skinfood Tomato Jelly Lip Tint (4g)
The color on the packaging might look the same for both but they are different shades of orange. 
Cherry's packaging is a darker shade of orange than Berry. (Cherry in front, Berry in back)
I personally don't like the color of the packaging. 



Totoro says hello~ Cherry (Left) & Berry (Right)

Since the name of the tint is Tomato Jelly Tint Lip, I thought it would smell like tomatoes.
 It actually has a fruity smell (a mix of strawberry & berries). I'm glad it doesn't smell like tomatoes!




Cherry is a cherry pink color with a hint of red and Berry is a cool tone pink. 
Both colors are build-able (apply more for a brighter color). 



Cherry (top), Berry (bottom)

The texture of the tint is very creamy and glossy, it immediately melts onto lips. 
It has the feeling of a lip balm and the staining power of a lip tint. 



Left to Right: Cherry, Berry

Cherry applies more sheer compared to Berry. Berry has a milky/creamy finish to it.

The Tomato Jelly Tint Lip comes in three colors, Cherry, Berry, and Orange


Overall thoughts: 

Pros: Long lasting moisture and color
Build-able color & the color payoff is strong
Smells good 
Good amount of shine, doesn't feel greasy
It has tomato extract (tomato is really good for the skin) 

Cons: I am not a fan of the orange colored packaging. (Please Skinfood, change the packaging!)

The Tomato Jelly Tint Lip is one of the best Lip tints I have used. My lips feel moisturized and the color is very long lasting. I always keep one of these in my makeup bag. I will definitely be repurchasing as soon as I run out. 


Thanks for reading~
Many of my reviews will be on lip tints! (I have a lip tint obsession)
