The Tonymoly Liptone tint, famous for its Pantone colour chip packaging and nail polish-like bottle has been super popular as it looks #aesthetic af. I will be reviewing the lip tint in 05 All Night Red, with a ~bonus comparison~ to another very popular liptint from Tonymoly: the Delight tint in Cherry pink. The Liptone has been gaining a lot of popularity recently and the Delight tint is always being recommended by people on tumblr since forever so thought I'd do a comparison between two top tints from Tonymoly. But why am I comparing a red tint to a pink tint? Well..... keep reading to find out. [If you like spoilers then the TL:DR Round Up is at the end of the review]



Look how pretty the packaging is....






There are actually TWO caps to it, the square cap you pop off to reveal the actual twistable cap, reminds me of Essie's nail polishes.  I guess the square cap is to prevent leaking as well as for design reasons. Sometimes I forget to put the 2nd cap back on though ;;

As you can see, the tint looks like a deep red in the bottle, so far so good. When I first got this lip tint, at this point I'm completely convinced this will be a red lip tint.



The applicator is a tiny lil doe foot, with only a slight angle to it. Gotta be really careful with this since the neck of the bottle is so small and gets messy quite easily.


Swatches of the Liptone in All Night Red and Delight Tony Tint in Cherry Pink.

Swatch #1 is very very watery, no texture, just a very lightweight liquid.
Swatch #2 has a slight gel texture.

Now guess which one is the "red." 1 or 2? 1 looks like a deep red, a bit like what it looks like in the bottle doesn't it.


Answer: 2. Swatch #2 is "All Night Red" BUT WHY IS IT PINK????? It is clearly a fuschia pink where the swatch was applied before being blended out???

Swatch #1 is the Delight Tint in "Cherry pink" and it does look like the stain you get after eating some cherries!


A very popular tint that many people seem to have as their first lip tint! My first lip tint was the Fresh Cherry Tint from Etude House, the red one, which unfortunately comes out pink too...




The applicator has a long stem with a flat and slanted doe foot. Even though the longer applicator is nicer to hold, the length of the stem being so far away from the lips actually makes it slightly harder control? or maybe thats just me (i tend to get hand spasms and cramps)





-I have really thin, dry lips and barely a cupids bow on my upper lip so they don't look that great without some sort of lip product on.
-Before using any lip tint its crucial to apply lip balm and exfoliate away any dead skin, because the lip tint is just gonna cling onto the dry patches and crack and flake and it aint gonna look pretty. This goes for pretty much all lip products without a glossy finish.
-Since my lips are pretty much non existent I don't do gradient lips with bb cream or concealer; I just apply less colour to form the lip shape and then concentrate the product in the centre for a gradient effect.

When doing a gradient lip with the Supposedly Red Tint, it just looks...pink. Quite a pretty pink though.

But when you apply it as a full lip colour you kinda see how it can be red... a cool pink toned red.
Applying the Liptone tint fully on the lips is easy with its slightly-thicker-than-water formula, A LOT easier than applying the watery Delight tint. It is also a more hydrating formula than the Delight tint, so your lips wont end up looking like a prune!! It has a slight sheen and you can get the glossy look if you don't blot, but the gloss will wear off pretty quick.

OK SO THE AMAZING THING ABOUT THIS LIP TINT IS THAT IT SURVIVED KFC WICKED WINGS!!! If it survives fried chicken it gooooood


Before you use the Delight tint, make sure you do not have ANY dry flaking skin on your lips because this tint is probably the lip product that accentuates dryness the most out of all lip products.
