Hey gloss lovers! Are you on Team Glossy or Team Matte? If you’re all about that juicy lip look, this one's for you.
Here’s a roundup of four budget-friendly glossy lip tints!
This shade is hands down one of my favorites! I’ve actually repurchased several colors from this series, but Rose Stream stands out with its rosy MLBB tone and subtle red undertone that flatters every skin tone. It glides on smoothly, stays comfy without drying—even with no lip balm underneath.
⭐ Gloss factor: 10/10
⭐ Overall score: 9.5/10
From the same brand but a different collection, this tint leans more mauve with a pink-purple blend that looks great on neutral to cool skin tones. Not as shiny as the Glasting line but still nourishing and applies evenly.
⭐ Gloss factor: 8/10
⭐ Overall score: 8/10
Packaging lovers, this one’s for you—it’s super aesthetic! The shade gives a pinkish beige with a hint of red that pops more on the lips than in swatches. It’s glossy and moisturizing, though a bit sticky and you’ll definitely feel it sitting on the lips.
⭐ Gloss factor: 8/10
⭐ Overall score: 7.5/10
A lovely reddish coral shade that works well on most skin tones. It hydrates well and wears comfortably, but there’s a small downside—the tint tastes bitter if it gets in your mouth, so it’s best removed before eating.
⭐ Gloss factor: 8.5/10

Glossy tints don’t need to be pricey to be impressive! Have you tried any of these lip tints, or do you have a favorite I should add to the list? 💄
