You're probably thinking, 'Umm Nicole, you shouldn't be eating your lipgloss, it's still toxic, it might kill you', emphasis on the MIGHT 🙃 but hey, I still am a sucker for flavored make-up, and here I am still alive!
So imagine my delight when my cousin surprised me with a delicious lip tint fresh from South Korea!
PERI PERA'S SUGAR GLOW TINT
Before we fully dive in to a quick review of this product, let me tell you a thing or two about Peripera.
Peripera is a South Korean cosmetics brand that made cult favorites out of their Velvet Lip Tint and Airy Cushion. They are well-known to have really quirky and playful packaging, and good must-haves for achieving that glowydewy Korean make-up look. The brand is available in a magnitude of E-commerce sites (Hi Shopee and Lazada), as well as Club Clio stores in The Philippines.
Now that I have properly introduced the brand to you, let us now proceed.
I. PACKAGING
At a glance, it does look like candy! The product itself is enclosed inside a ziplock-type of packaging, where on the back side shows important details about the product. Sadly, the texts are in Korean, so I have no idea what it says-but, good thing it has the canister logo on the lower right, which shows how long is the shelf-life of this product once opened.

| Indeed, Natasha. |
What's nice about the packaging is you'll immediately have an idea what color of tint you are using. The color of the bottle is close to the actual color of the product inside it.What I don't like about it though is you'll have a bit of a hard time knowing if you're running out of the product, because that inner glass part is painted and does not indicate how much content your bottle still has.
II. FORMULATION, PIGMENTATION, AND STAYING POWER
As for its pigmentation, it's a tint, a very watery one to be exact, which makes it appear sheer in one swipe, but it's pretty build-able. BUT just to manage your expectations, putting 3-4 coats won't exactly make your lips turn Coral Orange, but you can definitely see the color...

VERDICT:
Well, of course when my cousin asked if I like it, I said I like it hahaha
PROS:
- It tastes good, HAHAHA!
- It's moisturizing.
- Cute packaging, doesn't break easily when it fell off the floor.
CONS:
- False branding, this is a lipgloss haha!
- Lacks staying power.
- You have no idea if you have used up the product because of concealed packaging.
Sooooooo, will I buy this Peripera Sugar Glow Tint for mah self? Hmmm, I don't think so, but I'll definitely enjoy every drop of this sweet sweet lippie before I go Con te Partiro with it.
Love Always,
Nicole ♡
