Here's a verdict on VMV Hypoallergenics Sheer Lip Tint in Toasted Sugar
Price: Around P900.00+
Bought From: VMV Hypoallergenics, The Fort High Street
Other Locations: Please inquire via VMV Hypoallergenics Philippines' Facebook Fan Page
THE VERDICT:
I got a cold sore 2 weeks ago and thankfully, it's healed now. I normally get a cold sore on my lip area, most especially when my immune system weakens and I get a cold and cough. It is a little painful, dries out my lips excessively, and it takes a while to heal so that means no lip product for me until it's fully dry, except clear lip ointments such as Aquaphor and Lucas Papaw. I'm never without a tinge of color on my lips so I really searched for lip products that are very cold- sore friendly and I've found one in VMV Hypoallergenics.

It conveniently comes in a lipstick tube, making it very easy to use.

Toasted Sugar is a semi- deep Caramel Brown color. I opted for this shade because it's an easy-to-wear MLBB color.
VMV HYPOALLERGENICS SHEER LIP TINT IN TOASTED SUGAR IN ACTION
Coverage is sheer, yet buildable. Texture is emollient, non-drying, keeps my lips smooth, and staying power is okay: it stays intact for a good 2 hours, and comes off gradually with a few sips of coffee. Unlike any other lip tints, this one does not contain dyes, is fragrance, Paraben, and all-types-of-chemicals free, and does not yield any minty sensation that can aggravate the throbbing pain of my cold sore. In my experience, it's harmless even if my cold sore ruptures accidentally, although I would advise you not to treat it as a medication for wounded lips. I'm very happy with this product, and I'm getting another color for variety every time my cold sore pops out on my lips. I think it's also good for those who have dry, crackly, sensitive, lips, and those lips that wound up easily because it's pretty much safe to use.

ReplyDeleteAnyways I hope you get better soon Martha
this must be really promising sa performance and quality pa lang mukhang okay siya gamitin. Because sometimes that's my problem on my lips it tends to dry and too sensitive.^_^
ReplyDeleteWhen I was younger, I would see my mom buying lipsticks from this brand because it is really safe and effective. Nice review Ms. M. :)
ReplyDeleteHello Martha, get well soon in case na you're still not feeling well. uso sakit ngayon dahil sa weather. the color of this lippie made you look fresh.
ReplyDeleteIm lucky i dont get lipsores. Im looking for minty taste s mga lippies ko so i think ill give thiss a pass. No thnx
ReplyDeleteI'm suffering from cold sores too! :( They hurt like hell when the lips are dry. Nothing that a generous amount of the right lip balm can temporarily soothe though. For color, I use naman Revlon's Balm Stains. :)
ReplyDeleteThe shade is super nice, Ms. Martha. Though it's a bit pricey talaga, I think it is a must have lalo na for this cold season. Thanks for the review, Ms. Martha. ^_^
ReplyDeleteang ganda nga ng shade, it seems two in one, lipbalm and a lipstick in a bit!yet super pricey but absolutely in for cold season.
ReplyDeletebagay na bagay sayo Miss Martha! :)

Jenny: will try to find an affordable one that tickles my fancy. :)
Jaja: Yeah, you could say that, but its pigmentation is much much better than commercial tinted lip balms. And thank you for the concern! :)
Purple clandestine: Really? Then you should stick to gentle products like this so your dry and sensitive lips won't get irritated. :)
Let me know what you think of this post! :)
