Cooling Water Jelly Tint is ready to bounce into your makeup bag in four fun, refreshing shades designed for a wide range of skin tones. On tap, we’ve got Burst (poppy pink), Spritz (coral), Splash (berry), and Chill (red). Read on to find out how even beginners can easily incorporate Cooling Water Jelly Tint into their makeup routine and what makes this super satisfying formula our best lip and cheek stain.
What is a blush and lip stain, and what does it do?
The best lip stain + blush should create a sheer, long-wearing pop of color on lips and cheeks alike. Think blush with a watercolor effect that doesn’t fade midway through the day and lips with a popsicle-like tint that locks in for hours. The best lip and cheek stain should also be ultra easy to apply.
What is Cooling Water Jelly Tint?
Cooling Water Jelly Tint goes above and beyond the requirements of both cheek and lip products. This long-lasting blush and lip stain gives lips and cheeks a sheer, buildable tint in four bright shades with a natural—not matte—finish. It stays put for hours while leaving skin feeling hydrated. Bonus: It has an innovative bouncy jelly texture that seamlessly glides onto both bare skin and base makeup.
The weightless water-based blush and lip color is also infused with skin-firming, vitamin-rich vegan collagen to leave skin feeling as bouncy as the stick. It’s spiked with seawater and aloe, too, to soothe, hydrate, and refresh your face with just a swipe. And best of all: Cooling Water Jelly Tint is non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types.
How is Cooling Water Jelly Tint different from other lip stains and blush stains?
Unlike most blush and lip stains on the market, Cooling Water Jelly Tint hydrates and helps skin look firmer. Also, you can store Cooling Water Jelly Tint in the fridge to boost its unique skin-soothing benefits.
Cooling Water Jelly Tint can be used directly from its tube. Just swirl or swipe the stick onto your lips and cheeks to get that juicy color payoff. You won’t have to worry about disrupting the foundation and concealer underneath it, a common problem we’ve noticed with other lip and cheek stains. Cooling Water Jelly Tint seamlessly layers atop other makeup products without dragging, no matter if they’re cream, liquid, or powder.
How long does this blush and lip stain last?
Cooling Water Jelly Tint gives lips and cheeks a watercolor-like wash of color that lasts for hours. It’s not shiny like a lip gloss or drying like a liquid lipstick; instead, it gives your lips and cheeks a hydrated, transfer-proof finish. Plus, each portable stick packs 1,000+ swipes.
Can I use lip stain on my cheeks?
Not all lip tints are formulated for use on your cheeks. They can be drying and uncomfortable to wear anywhere other than your lips. Cooling Water Jelly Tint, however, was made to work for both.
How do I use Cooling Water Jelly Tint?
1. Work One Cheek at a Time
Working in sections is best when using this stain stick. The formula dries down quickly and has a fast blend time, so apply it to one cheek at a time and blend immediately. You can use it as a cheek tint after foundation and concealer or even before for a more natural-looking, underpainted flush.
2. Blend Out Quickly
Tap the color into your cheek with a brush, sponge, or clean fingertips to blend seamlessly. For a more intense effect, swipe on another coat of color.
3. Swipe onto Lips
Use this hydrating lip stain straight from the tube. Swipe it on all over for a solid-yet-sheer layer of color. To get that perfect, just-ate-a-popsicle lip stain, dab it directly onto the center of your lips and blend outward to the edges with a fingertip. For extra credit, turn Jelly Tint into a glossy lip stain by adding a few swipes of our Odyssey Lip Oil Gloss in whichever color you’re feeling. You can even use it with a lip liner for a more defined look.
4. Snap the Cap
Because Cooling Water Jelly Tint is water-based, closing the stick correctly after each use is essential for preventing the gel formula from drying out. Place the cap back onto the stick, and press down on it until you hear a click.
