REVIEW : Aritaum's Honey Melting Tint (in #14 Pink Lemonade and #16 Lady Dessert)

Hi! 

Finally,
I got my hands on these!! It's Aritaum's "Honey Melting Tint". I'm always tricked by the packaging, I thought they were just an ordinary colored lip balm and never bothered to even checked them out. Then my junior was raving about these and also I'm much more convinced after reading Rini's review HERE.

Now they're releasing 6 new shades for the summer, "Summer Neon Limited Color"

First, the packaging. They didn't came in boxes, but do they have secure seals so make sure it still intact when purchasing! It is easy mistake as a lip balm (like I do) but they're actually legit lip tints! The outside cap is resembling the shade inside, which quite accurate I say. 

You'll see in the pictures below that the inside black tube goes up more than the product itself (does that make sense?) to secure the product from melting and breaking down because it's so creamy - think about Revlon Lip Butter - both has similar tube system that I think is perfect for lip products with creamier textures! 

Including the regular shades, they have 16 shades (10 + 6). The summer shades are more neon and it focuses on pink and orange shades. 

Both have this sweet, fruity scent but also mixed with a "cosmetic" kinda scent, I felt that's kinda weird, but the scent didn't linger so I just moved on from that. 

I was planning to just get the summer neon one and a regular one but my friend again, said that summer is coming, so I should probably pick up bright colors instead. So, I listened to her and I fell in love with both of the shades! 

Especially with "Lady Dessert" - I was afraid that it will came too orangey but it didn't, and "Pink Lemonade" is definitely not as neon as I expected to be. 

Both stained my lips even after all the glossiness has gone, but "Pink Lemonade" has more vivid stain left. 

These products have creamy texture - not as smooth as a legit lip balm, but it's definitely comparable! They are not sticky, very comfortable on the lips. They sure have better lasting power than similar products on the market -  they still transfers to straws, or when I kiss my palm to test it - but not as visible as other creamy lipsticks I have.

Both has glossy finish, I do think some advertorial pictures from aritaum.com are a little bit exaggerated. Like the vividness of the shade or even the glossiness. You know the drill - ad always lie. lol

You can see above that 2 shades that I own didn't have the same pigmentation. "Pink Lemonade" definitely came off more bright and is pigmented enough with only 1 swipe. "Lady Dessert" has to be more layered to make it as vivid as "Pink Lemonade"

I can still see my real lip color see through the product - which is nice because it will slightly toned down the whole neon thingy. Because the lip tint surface is kinda huge - I still have to be in front of a mirror when applying or re-apply during the day. I can be a little bit messy with "Lady Dessert" - but I didn't want to take the change with "Pink Lemonade"

Sleek packaging

Creamy texture

Light weight

A ton of shades

Lips staining

Moisturizing

Huge product surface could be a problem

for people with thin lips

(or just clumsy like me)

Overall, this is 10 out of 10 - I love these stuff! This is like a perfect combination of lip tint + lip stick + lip balm. I know there's more colors available and I really want to try it all! Again, this product is again a result of someone's good review, but this is totally over my expectation.

I find these are pretty much similar with Revlon's lip butter, but I believe these stay (much) longer and stains my lips better - and both are moisturizing! And I found that some Lip Butter's has shimmers but these melting tints have none - they just glossy and I completely prefer this Melting Tint over the Lip Butters.

Thankyou so much for reading guys!
Have a nice day! xx
