Hey beautylovers,
Today I want to review some product that have been a hit in this several month. It is from Shu Uemura brand and a lip cheek kinda multipurpose product. I believe the launching of this product is from the collection Shu Uemura x Mika Ninagawa 2014 "Forbidden Fruits". The product name is Tint in Gelato. It is supposed to make a flushed color in you cheek or lip.

It claims to (taken from Shu Uemura USA official website):
Soft Flushed Cheeks. Dewy Stained Lips.
Play with the contrasting color finish for a customized tinted look - perfect on the lip, just as well as on the cheek.
Available in 12 gelato-inspired delightful shades.
Unique Texture
Fresh and creamy gelato-like unique formula magically changes from a thick to a thin layer for variations of finish: from intense dewy to soft matte finish.
Application Tips
Lips: Glide on lips with the applicator
Cheeks: Blend with your finger tips for a semi-matte with natural sheen finish
I got mine in several days ago (I know I kinda late because hesitate to buy or not) Tint in Gelato CR01 in blood orange which is kinda funny name because I don't find it in orange but more into coral side color.

From my pure point of view:
Packaging ( 5 out of 5)
The Packaging is soooooooo freakin pretty! It is sleek, elegant, luxurious, yet chic kinda look. The bottle is silver which is soo gorgeous remind me about Dior packaging. There is a little transparent side along the body of bottle into the bottom part. It makes great because we can see the actual real color of the product inside. The applicator is not brush, but rather round thing to applicate the product. It is one of the most favorite packaging from all of my lipstick, it is great in your bag or make up pouch because it is so lightweight and cool for touch up (It will make girl beside you asking about the product that you used when touch up - because yes it is so pretty. Me, experimented it). I adore the packaging!
Formulas and Texture (4.5 out of 5)
It is so creamy yet feel moisturizing, which it is kinda surprising because you got matte texture in your lips! I feel it is kinda similar with NYX Soft Matte Lip Creme but so much better. When you wear NYX Soft Matte in several hours you feel feel kinda dry and the appearance will not be gorgeous as you first applied. The tint in gelato, in so much better way, you will feel same like first apply, even it after several hours! You will feel your lips so moisturized and light creamy.
Long Lasting and Transfer (3.5 out of 5)
I don't need much touch up with this product. When I apply in the morning, it will be same until noon. But in case of you eat or drink, it will be need touch up. But the color is still there in your lips, but not as vibrant as you first apply. You must remember this, It does transfer. Maybe because it from their texture, so creamy, so it will stain in you straw or glass when your drinking. Don't expect it will be like korean's tint or stain - which is do not stain when you eat or drink- because yes it is transfer. So watch out when you go out and drink and eat, remember to check your lips and apply again if you want.
Color Payoff (5 out of 5)
Some products, including high end brands with crazy price - some of them such a disappointment in term of color payoff, but not this one people. You got what you see in the bottle, which is good. You know you what you want and voila! as vibrant as you got in advertisement.
Price (4 out of 5)
Yes it is pricey, I bought it in SOGO Department Store Kelapa Gading right in Shu Uemura Counter. The price is Rp 380.000 or in USA US$28. I kinda understand why it is on the pricey side because of the high end brand, but it is worth I feel, because I feel so in love with the packaging (yes I'm a sucker in that area).
Overall (4 out of 5) :)
