Etude Dear Darling Water Tint – 01 Strawberry Ade is a vibrant, long-lasting liquid lip tint that delivers a fresh burst of fruity color. Infused with a Vitamin Complex and Pomegranate Extract, this weightless water-based formula sinks into the lips for a smudge-proof, non-sticky finish. The "Strawberry Ade" shade is a classic, bright cherry-red that provides a youthful, healthy glow to any look.
The Original K-Beauty Gradient Lip
Experience the tint that started the "gradient lip" trend. Unlike heavy lipsticks or sticky glosses, the Dear Darling Water Tint is a thin, pigmented liquid that stains the lips for hours. It’s perfect for those who want a natural, "no-makeup" makeup look that won't rub off on masks, cups, or skin.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
Weightless Water Formula: Absorbs instantly into the lips without any greasiness or waxiness.
-
Vivid Strawberry Tint: #01 Strawberry Ade is a bright, cool-toned red that mimics the natural flush of bitten lips.
-
Hydrating Fruit Extracts: Enriched with Pomegranate and Grapefruit extracts, which are rich in vitamins and minerals to help keep lips feeling refreshed and hydrated.
-
Long-Lasting Stain: Once it dries, the color is "locked in." It’s highly resistant to smudging and transfer, making it ideal for busy days.
-
Buildable Intensity: Apply one layer for a sheer, natural flush, or layer it 2–3 times for a bold, saturated red lip.

How to Use for the Best Glow:
-
Prep: Ensure your lips are exfoliated for an even stain.
-
The Gradient Look: Dab 3 small dots onto the inner center of your upper and lower lips. Quickly blend outward using your fingertip or a cotton swab before it sets.
-
Full Lip: Glide the applicator across the entire lip area for a bold, juicy pop of color.
-
Cheek Tint: This formula also works beautifully as a long-wear liquid blush! Just dot a tiny amount onto the apples of your cheeks and blend immediately.
Pro-Tip: Because water tints can be slightly drying once they set, apply a layer of the Maybelline Baby Lips we discussed earlier on top of the tint for a glossy, hydrated finish!
