cream blush + lip tint
I received this in the mail in Berry, and I was so excited to try it out — and I was right to excitedly anticipate its arrival. Milkâs lip-cheek tint is a classic, one of the OGs. You can thank its ultra-hydrating ingredients for the creamy, non-drying formula: a combo of mango butter, avocado oil, and apricot oil. It’s vegan, cruelty-free, and paraben-free, too, so you can feel safe and ethical about what you’re wearing.
Halo Sheer To Stay Cream Cheek + Lip Tint
We love Smashbox over here — just read Marissa’s review of their liquid lipstick! Their primer-infused cream cheek and lip tint is perfect for those who want a flush in a matte finish. The 2-in-1 gives you blendable and buildable capabilities, and it’s infused with a rich Primer Oil Complex — aka a blend of jojoba, sunflower, and apricot oils — for comfy coverage. The formula glides on smoothly, then settles into a powder-like matte finish that helps create a blurred, soft-focus look.Â
On-the-Glow Blush
Swipe on some healthy goodness with Pixi by Petra’s On-the-Glow Blush. This hydrating solid 2-in-1 tint is built to blend for a natural finish on cheeks and lips. Enriched with botanicals and fruit extracts to create a nourishing, protective base, the flattering colors give you a just-been-kissed glow. This product is perfect for boss bbs on the g(l)o(w) who want to add a pop of color to their cheeks and lips without having to spend too much time on makeup. Go from desk to drinks with one application of this multi-use stick!
PERK UP CHEEK & LIP COLOR
Perk Up is the perfect name for a cheek-lip tint. After all, when youâve just woken up, are sick, or look ungodly after a hangover, whatâs the first thing you want? (Aside from moisturizer. Please put that moisturizer on first.) A little color. Morpheâs ingredients list looks kind of intimidating, but all are in there to soften and condition. Mica adds a little shimmer, because why not?
Gogotint Cheek & Lip Stain
While the others are creams, Benefitâs cheek-lip tint is actually a stain â so it goes on, and it stays on for a while. Gogotint is the latest lip-cheek stain, coming in a cheery cherry-red, giving you a flush that canât be missed. Reviews say a little goes a long way, so donât get too excited unless you want to look a lil clown-like.
Universal Gloss
Fluideâs Universal Gloss is universal in two ways: one, anybody can wear it, and two, it can go everywhere. Fluide recommends applying the dewy tint to your entire face â yep, including your lids, itâs a 3-in-1! â and there are currently three shades available. Shine bright like a diamond, and keep checking back for Elysium and Rain to come back into stock.
Hy-Power Eye, Cheek & Lip Pigment Paint
This bright, bold lip-cheek-eye (yep, 3-in-1!) tint bursts with creativity, so you can let your imagination run wild. The clean cream formula has a matte finish and is shimmer-free. This clean, vegan, cruelty-free product’s ingredients list makes it shine; find softening plant squalane, hydration-locking hyaluronic acid, and maracuja extract to nourish the face. With this product, you get all the benefits of a cheek, lip, and eye tint in one easy-to-apply, long-wearing product!
Cheekslime Blush + Lip Tint with Plant Collagen
Freck is LGBTQ+-owned, so you know we already love the brand â the inclusivity is the cherry on top. These color choices are all gorg â a subtle peach, soft rust, and deep berry make up the collection, giving you three shades to brighten your face. Cheekslime is a weird name, for sure, but itâs because of the formula: itâs so creamy, it slides right on, rather than feeling like putty.
Dew Blush
Saie âhelloâ to a blush thatâs technically meant for your cheeks, but is so damn flattering, you can wear it anywhere you want that extra flush. Bonus: the formula is ultra-protective against environmental stressors, thanks to antioxidant-filled ingredients like white mulberry root extract, comfrey leaf extract, and elderberry fruit extract.
NU LIP & CHEEK BALMY TINT with Hyaluronic Acid
This lip & cheek tint is a two-in-one lip balm and cheek blush that provides light coverage and a natural finish. The paraben-free formula is filled with hyaluronic acid, known for its hydrating and radiance-inducing properties, as well as orange blossom and shea butter to help calm and moisturize the skin. This ultra-blendable, balmy tint glides on effortlessly to stain your lips and cheeks with sheer color for a natural flush.
Eclipse Cheek & Lip Stick
r.e.m. offers a futuristic packaging take on the lip-and-cheek stick â while most are in neutral, cylindrical containers, r.e.m. goes spaceship-centric. Formula-wise, Eclipse comes with (inter)stellar ingredients to give you a hydrating glow â jojoba seed oil and grape fruit extracts work together to fight aging and provide moisture to all skin types.
Active Lip & Cheek Balm
Okay, so I donât know about you, but shea butter is one of my favorite ingredients. Itâs so nourishing â it feels like a hug to the skin. Thatâs why I love LIQUEâs buildable cheek-lip tint, which has a ton of shea butter to coddle. It also has rosehip oil, which helps to reduce inflammation and bring forth your most radiant skin.
Blush & Bloom Cheek + Lip Duo
Sometimes you donât want a monochromatic look, and thatâs totally understandable. Jouer Cosmetics heard you loud and clear, and they understood the assignment. Their Cheek-Lip Duos have slightly different shades on each end, so you have one lighter and one deeper option. Their Amelie Blush and Bloom comes with a clear end â perfect for radiance minus the red.
Kjaer Weis Refillable Lip Tint
Here at QUILL, weâre big on sustainability â just check out our resident mermaidâs eco-conscious articles! Itâs why we love Kjaer Weisâ Refillable Lip Tint: gorgeous, good ingredients, multi-use despite the name, and planet-lovinâ packaging all at once. Just choose your colors, your container, and revel in the fact that you can compost or recycle at the end of its lifespan.
Supernatural Stick Multi-Use Blush
W3LL PEOPLEâS multi-use blush is plant-based, so you wonât find any icky ingredients in there â especially great if you have sensitive skin. Itâs vegan and cruelty-free, starring green tea to protect from free radicals, plus sunflower seed oil and avocado oil to keep skin hydrated and happy with their fatty acids. If youâre curious about their ingredient list, youâre able to hover over each ingredient for a description of what it does, so you know exactly what youâre putting on your skin.
ONO ONO – MULTI-BENE STICK // LIPS + CHEEKS
This is, without a doubt, the most nourishing lip-cheek tint youâre going to put on your face. The color looks deep, but it rubs into your skin as a flattering, subtle blush â not the bold youâll be expecting. Ingredients include anti-inflammatory shea butter; softening vitamin E; and jojoba and rosehip seed oils for their antioxidants and fatty acids.
