Innisfree Treatment Lip Oil: Retail $12.84
Initially I bought this in Korea months ago because of my interest in lip oils. We stayed in a hotel in Myeongdong which is literally right next to all the street food and K-beauty stores, so every single day I made stops to Innisfree, Olive Young, Clio, and other stores in search of deals+price matches. On the very last day on a whim I decided to pick this up (ended up being $10 USD). I love Innisfree as a brand, so I decided, why not? I couldn't find this on the innisfree US website, but it is available on Amazon.
Specs:
- Size: 5mL
- Applicator: Slightly curved doe foot
- Shades: I think they have 3-4 shades. I picked up #2, the orange tint.
- Pigmentation: Sheer
- Scent: Almost undetectable natural sweet herbal-y scent.
Ingredients (Translation taken from another blogger) :
*Orange*polybuten, Diisotearyl malate, Octildodecanol, Hydrogenated Polyisobuten, Polyglyceril-2 triisotearate, Tocopheryl acetate, Triethylhexanoin, Glycerin, Red no. 103 (1), Bees wax, Macadamia oil, Olive oil, Jojoba seed oil, Sweet almond oil, Dehydroacetic acid, Silica, Purified water, Orange no. 201, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 dimethicone, Sorbitan isostearate, Red no. 103 (1), Orange no. 205, Glyceril caprylate, Methicon, Fragrance.
Packaging:
Heavy plastic that shows the exact shade on the bottom of the tube. Expiration date on the very bottom.
Performance:
Even though this is a lip oil, it wasn't sticky on the lips. This lip oil was light, moisturizing on the lips, and lasted around 1.5 hrs before I felt like I needed reapplication. Not too thick, not too watery. For any of the shades, this product is very very sheer and does not stain the lips after drying out. This is what makes it different from the famous YSL oil lip tints-that one actually tints the lips! For me, I like MLBB lip products, so the sheer-ness was actually preferred.
This lip oil formula wasn't too water-y or drippy, so there's no mess when applying this product.
Verdict:
Yes, I would recommend this! I enjoyed this product and really have nothing bad to say about it. Since it's only ~$13, I would repurchase this. If, however, you want a lip oil that's more pigmented and will leave a stain, this isn't the product for you. But if you just want an everyday natural & moisturizing gloss (without the stickiness), this one is great! It just might be a new discovery and favorite of mine!
Besides the YSL one, I've also tried the butter london one ($22) which I also like. However, I will not be repurchasing that one because of the price.
Save Some $:
