This was my first ever velvety/matte type lip tint (I usually go for gel or watery types).

This felt very lightweight and IT IS PIGMENTED.

I got mine in shade 06 (kinda the lightest shade but still very pigmented)

HOLY COW.

you only need a tiiiiiiny bit of this, blend it out with fingers, and you will have evened out lip color.

the packaging feels pretty sturdy and "luxurious" and since a little bit goes a long way, this tint contains quite a lot of product.

it smells absolutely amazing (not overwhelming, but smells like when you just entered a Bed Bath & Beyond store...lol)

It is not drying, but I recommend you apply a little bit and then blend out because I personally found that this can get a little bit cakey and settle into fine lines.

However, if you blend it out, it will smooth out your lips even if you have dry/flakey lips.
