First of all, I have to say, the packaging of these lip tints is absolutely exquisite! I love all the details with the gold accents and they feel super luxurious in the hand. If purse appeal means something to you, these will definitely tick that box.

I think it’s important to note that these lip colours veer more on the side of a lipstick than a lip tint which I actually really like, as there are so many lip tints already! I can’t actually think of any other lipstick-type formulas that have SPF protection in them, so I think they really do bring something new.

The texture is really lovely and silky, and feels almost buttery on the lips. You can dab on a small amount for a sheer coverage of colour, or build it up for a more lipstick-y look.

Also the lip swatches above show the colour applied straight to the lips from the bullet with no prep, however, I will also be wearing them with lip liner (probably the new Lisa Eldridge ones) to achieve a more polished look.

My favourite shade in the Tatcha The Kissu Lip Tint is the Plum Blossom shade which is a lovely soft pinky peach. It’s the sheerest shade from the selection and you can top up every couple of hours to maintain the UVA and UVB protection, the moisturisation and also the colour. Fabulous!
