Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil Review: Hydration and Sheer Color in One

Tinted lip oils have taken the beauty world by storm, promising the hydration of a lip oil with a wash of color. The Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil from Aunaturalecosmetics is one such product that claims to nourish lips while adding a sheer, glossy tint. But does it live up to the hype? In this review, we put the Lip Slick to the test, focusing on its hydrating properties, color payoff, and overall wear.

We tested two popular shades: the deep berry Cassis and the soft pink Rose. Both are designed to provide a natural, everyday look. We also compared the Lip Slick to other lip products like the Eternity Sheer Lipstick - Ting to see how it stacks up in terms of moisture and color. Read on for our full verdict.

First Impressions and Packaging

The Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil comes in a sleek, slim tube with a doe-foot applicator that makes application precise and mess-free. The packaging is lightweight and travel-friendly, fitting easily into any purse. The oil itself has a pleasant, subtle vanilla scent that dissipates quickly upon application.

Upon first swipe, the oil feels silky and non-sticky, gliding smoothly over the lips. It leaves a glossy finish without feeling heavy. The shade Cassis appears as a rich burgundy tint, while Rose offers a delicate pink hue. Both are sheer but buildable, allowing you to control the intensity.

• Doe-foot applicator for easy, even application.
• Non-sticky, lightweight formula with a glossy finish.

Hydration and Wear Test

We wore the Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil for several hours to assess its hydrating claims. The formula contains moisturizing ingredients that keep lips feeling soft and supple. Unlike some lip oils that evaporate quickly, this one maintains a comfortable moisture level for about 3-4 hours before needing reapplication. It does not dry out lips or cause peeling, making it a great option for those with dry or sensitive lips.

In terms of color longevity, the tint fades gradually and evenly, leaving a subtle stain behind. The glossiness diminishes after eating or drinking, but a light layer of color remains. For a more lasting lip look, you can pair it with a lip pencil like the TESTER - Perfect Match Lip Pencil to define the lips and extend wear.

• Hydration lasts 3-4 hours; reapplication recommended after meals.
• Leaves a subtle stain even after gloss fades.

Shade Comparison: Cassis vs. Rose

The Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil comes in several shades, but Cassis and Rose are two standout options. Cassis is a deep berry with cool undertones, perfect for fall or evening looks. It adds a bold yet sheer pop of color that complements fair to medium skin tones. Rose, on the other hand, is a soft pink with warm undertones, ideal for a natural, everyday flush. It works well on most skin tones and can be layered for more intensity.

Both shades have a similar glossy finish and feel. If you prefer a more noticeable tint, Cassis is the way to go. For a barely-there look, Rose is your best bet. The Lip Slick can also be used as a topper over other lip products, such as the Eternity Sheer Lipstick - Ting, to add shine and a hint of color.

• Cassis: deep berry with cool undertones, suitable for evening wear.
• Rose: soft pink with warm undertones, perfect for daily use.

Pros and Cons

To help you decide if the Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil is right for you, here is a quick overview of its strengths and weaknesses.

• Pros: Hydrating, non-sticky, sheer buildable color, pleasant scent, travel-friendly packaging.
• Cons: Color longevity is moderate, gloss fades after eating, limited shade range.

Overall, the Lip Slick Tinted Lip Oil delivers on its promise of hydration and a sheer tint. It is a great choice for those who want a low-maintenance lip product that feels comfortable and looks natural. For a more defined lip look, consider pairing it with the TESTER - Perfect Match Lip Pencil. If you are looking for a hydrating lip oil with a hint of color, the Lip Slick is definitely worth trying.
