Choosing a shade in Tonymoly's Get It Tint Waterpool Syrup line
The Get It Tint Waterpool Syrup line trades a matte finish for a glossy, watery stain, and the shade names double as a flavor guide. Here's how to pick between them and between the syrup bottle and the stick.
What a syrup tint is
Instead of a cream or liquid lipstick finish, the Waterpool Syrup formula sits closer to a tinted gloss: it applies wet, settles into a lighter stain, and leaves lips with a glassy sheen rather than full opaque coverage.
The shade lineup
Shades run from warm fruit tones like Apricot Syrup and Pitch Syrup, to deeper Fig Syrup, Plum Syrup, and Berry Syrup, to lighter Cool Rose Syrup, Grapefruit Syrup, and the neutral-brown Milk Tea Syrup. Pick a warmer fruit shade for an everyday flush, or Fig or Plum for more depth.
Stick vs. syrup bottle
The Get It Tint Syrup Stick packs the same watery-stain finish into a twist-up 4g stick for quick reapplication on the go, while the syrup bottle version at 5.3g comes with a doe-foot applicator for more controlled, buildable layering.
How to apply for a natural gradient
Dab a small amount at the center of the lips and pat outward with a fingertip for a soft gradient look, or trace the applicator along the lip line and blend inward for fuller coverage.
Building up color intensity
One layer gives a sheer wash of color that fades to a natural stain. Layering two or three passes deepens the shade closer to the bottle color without adding a heavy, cakey texture.
Wear time and touch-ups
Because the finish is glossy and watery rather than long-wear matte, expect the gloss layer to fade with eating or drinking while the underlying stain lingers longer. Keep the stick or bottle on hand for quick touch-ups.
Pairing with the rest of your makeup
Cooler shades like Cool Rose or Grapefruit pair well with a fresh, dewy base, while warmer shades like Apricot, Pitch, or Milk Tea sit closer to a bare, my-lips-but-better look.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the syrup bottle and the tint stick?
The syrup bottle comes with a doe-foot applicator at 5.3g for buildable, controlled application, while the 4g stick twists up for quick touch-ups without an applicator.
How do I apply the tint for a natural look?
Dab a small amount at the center of your lips and pat outward with a fingertip for a soft gradient, or trace the lip line with the applicator and blend inward for fuller coverage.
How do the fruit-named shades differ from each other?
Warmer shades like Apricot and Pitch Syrup lean orange-coral, Fig and Plum Syrup run deeper and more berry-toned, Cool Rose and Grapefruit stay lighter and pink, and Milk Tea Syrup is a neutral brown-nude.
How long does the tint last on lips?
The glossy top layer wears off with eating or drinking, but the underlying stain from the tint typically lingers longer than the gloss finish itself, so touch-ups are about refreshing shine as much as color.
Can I layer the tint for a deeper color?
Yes. A single pass gives a sheer wash, and two or three layers build the color closer to the shade's true bottle tone without turning heavy or cakey.
