I've always wanted to try a lip tint so I picked this up at sephora along with the benetint. I've never worn this without a lip balm underneath because I do feel it's a bit drying. I wished that this product came in a smaller bottle (without having to buy a whole set of benefit products) because I feel like it will dry up before I finish it.

Best Ever Lip Stain
-05.10.13
This lip stain stays on a very long time. It doesn't dry your lips and it doesn't spread to the little lines around your lips. I also recommend some sort of lip gloss over top for that extra shine.

Rather surprised
-05.06.13
I got this as a sample in the Benefit Goodtime Gals set and was intending to give it away to my friend because I thought I would be too dark to pull it off. I wear Golden Medium in bareminerals and 65 in MUFE Mat Velvet Plus. As you can tell, my skin is not deep, but it isn't light either. I really thought I could not pull this off, but I am SHOCKED at how much I like this product. The color comes up as a beautiful pinky color that is not overdone and looks SO natural. People describe it as being barbie pink, but for that was not the case. It looked just so perfect! On my lips this is not drying either. I found benetint dried my lips out but this did not. I still put lip balm over it just because I like lip balm haha but I could go without it. This does hav a faint bitter taste, but it really does not bother me much. As for the application I swipe it on my lips twice evenly coating my bottom lip and then i smack my lips together to distribute the color. I found this the best way to apply this. I let it dry and then put on my lip balm. For the cheeks I put on my base and then I put an "x" on the center of both of my cheekbones and then blend it. It is sheer, but it looks good. Overall I really recommend this. I personally like it better than both benetint and cha cha tint. Ladies and gentlemen, please do not be afraid of such a bright pink color because it really does look natural. And for all of my folks of color out there, don't be afraid that this will not show up on you, because I had doubts and it did look amazing on me. The only downside is the price, but I am willing to overlook that because this is just so amazing.

Great!

I love this color, I haven't tried it on my cheeks yet, but I love it on lips. I put a little Chapstick over the top after it dries a bit, and I've found that it lasts longer that way. A really great buy.

Absolutely love
-04.25.13
I got a sample of this item about a year ago and used it until there was literally not a drop left, so I was very happy when I found it again. It gives a really color to lips that isn't too much, but can be built up. I use a light coat of it every day to really fill out my lips and give them a nice natural pout. I also like it layered with the Benefit dandelion lipgloss!

bottle breaks easily
-04.25.13
The top of the bottle breaks away very easily from the top. I just bought it, and it fell off my dresser and broke right away. I don't think a small beauty product should be this delicate.

Best all in one product
-04.25.13
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing, multipurpose
I've already bought THREE bottles of this stuff, if that doesn't explain how much I love this product.
I think it's hard at first, to get a handle on it and you can definitely have some disasters but it's best to apply this with a brush, I find after foundation or on bare skin without any foundation and just some spot concealment. It takes a minute to appear on skin sometimes, so be gentle and sparing! A little dot is all you need for full cheek coverage.
This color is great because it lasts all day and I think it looks great on my skin when I am snow white pale in the winter, or bronzy tan in the summer. Works great on lips as well, though I find that eating and drinking and talking really wear it off quickly.
It's great if you're like me and like subtlety to your makeup, like the "no makeup" makeup look. You can definitely layer it to stand out as well but I think it works best when it's softly applied. Because it's a tint you can't even tell you have makeup on, you don't get a powdery or WORSE glittery finish that some other blushers give you. Which I HATE. Nice, matte, fresh and clean.
Ready to buy my 4th bottle!

Pretty in the bottle but ...
-04.23.13
This is really pretty, especially when swatching on my hand in the store. But whenever I tried to use this on my face, it seemed to get blotchy. I've tried over foundation per powder and after powder. Definitely better before powder, but the powder takes away some of the color / natural look. Might be excellent on bare skin.
I did not like this as a lip stain. Felt drying.

Not enough color :(
-04.22.13
Quick Take: non-sticky
I'm a Benefit Fan so I bought the Posie Tint and the Cha Cha Tint about a year ago and even though I LOVE Benetint, I still can't use these ones. I can only use them on my lips because it has caused me a horrible allergic reaction on my cheeks (I suffer from dermatitis so beware if you do). The Posie Tint itself doesn't show up on my lips, Cha Cha Tint has way more color but it's not very flattering on my skin. Also, it smells like harsh chemicals.

TINT!
-04.21.13
Quick Take: non-sticky
posie tint is best pinkish tint to light skin.
when i use this product, my face looks healthy
easy to use.
also this product is not sticky.
If you put this product then put some lip balm, then it will stay longer than others.

Fantastic! Love it even more than expected. Looks like a fresh, flushed cheek. Haven't tried it on lips but it is lovely on the cheeks. I have very fair skin and it looks so natural.

Perfect Spring Lip :)
-04.08.13
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing, pretty
This has been my go to in the morning for a really simple and sip proof lip colour. It is actually still there by the end of my school day without reapplying. It is super pretty on my fair skin and I like it better then benetint for me....now if only I'd be able to figure out how to use it on my cheeks....

-04.08.13
This was my first time buying the posie tint. I usually buy the darker tint but I am so happy I did. It goes on very naturally and last all day. I will put it on my lips as well for a little color. I use it as cheek stain mostly, though. It looks so good and I would definitely recommend it to others! When I am out I will go and buy more! Just be careful putting it on. I usually put it on my fingers and rub it in because sometimes too much comes off of the brush and then it doesn't look good.

Great for the Spring
-03.30.13
What I love about this product is the color it gives my cheeks. It's subtle depending on how much you apply. The only downside is you must apply the color 2-3 times to get a good color on your lips. Other than that, this product is a must have. I have to try the other colors!

You gotta be fast
-03.29.13
It's very important that you apply it one cheek at a time. I've tried to apply at the two of them at once (was pretty much in a hurry) and ended up as a porcelain doll with two round circles in the face. I cannot even say it was pretty bad cuz there was absolutely nothing pretty at that.

Great color. I'm fair skinned and I think it looks great as a cheek tint. Also love as a lip tint but it can be a little drying on the lips. Definitely smudge proof, not sticky, but maybe a little too runny and a bit pricey.
