Fixing Tint
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
ETUDE's Fixing Tint splits opinion sharply: Amanda Z calls it "one of the best matte lip formulas I've have tried period" for its even, non-drying pigment and lasting power, while AvatarLing says it's drying, smelly, and not transfer-proof. The strong floral scent and shriveled-lip effect make it a poor choice for sensitive or dry lips, per AvatarLing. If you want a comfortable, blurring matte stain that lasts, Amanda Z recommends it — otherwise, skip.

MIXED / NEGATIVE
- “I really don't like the smell of it. It stinks. It has a very, very strong floral, talcum powder kind of smell. It's sweet, it's floral, it's sickly. Not good”14:08–14:13
- “If you're sensitive to fragrance or strong scents, I would avoid”14:21–14:26
- “I don't think the lip tint performs very well either”14:30–14:33
- “It comes off super easily. It will not last a meal. It is not fully transfer-proof”14:41–14:51
- “It does not do any of what it claims to do”14:51–14:56
- “It does that sort of old liquid lipstick effect where it makes your lips look really shriveled and dry”14:56–15:00
- “It doesn't feel comfortable to wear at all”15:05–15:10
- “This is one of the most drying lip tint formulas that I have tried”15:08–15:15
