How to Use Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint Safely and Correctly

Achieve the perfect lip look with these simple steps:

1. Prep Your Lips: Start with clean, dry lips. For best results, exfoliate your lips gently beforehand to remove any dry skin and create a smooth canvas.
2. Apply a Base (Optional): If you desire extra hydration, apply a thin layer of lip balm and allow it to absorb before applying the tint.
3. Apply the Tint: Using the applicator, start applying the Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint from the inner part of your lips and gently blend outwards.
4. Build Intensity: For a subtle, natural look, apply one layer. To intensify the colour, apply additional layers, allowing each layer to dry slightly before applying the next. You can build up the colour to achieve your desired vibrancy.
5. Blend Evenly: Use your finger or a lip brush to gently blend the edges for a seamless, natural finish.
6. Let it Set: Allow a few moments for the tint to fully set for maximum long-lasting power and smudge-proof effect.

Precautions and Safety Measures for South African Customers:

• Patch Test: Although generally gentle, it’s always recommended to perform a patch test before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin. Apply a small amount on your inner wrist and wait 24 hours to check for any adverse reactions.
• External Use Only: Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Discontinue Use: If you experience any irritation, redness, or discomfort, discontinue use immediately and consult a dermatologist if symptoms persist.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat, which is particularly important in South Africa's warmer regions, to maintain product quality and longevity.
• Keep out of Reach of Children: Ensure the product is stored safely away from children.

Side Effects of Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint

The Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint is formulated to be gentle, however, like any cosmetic product, potential side effects can occur, although they are rare:

• Mild Dryness: Some individuals might experience mild dryness, especially with frequent use. To combat this, ensure you are moisturizing your lips regularly, especially before and after using the tint.
• Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, individuals may be allergic to certain ingredients. Symptoms of an allergic reaction can include redness, itching, swelling, or rash. If you experience any of these symptoms, discontinue use immediately.

What to Do if Side Effects Occur:

• Stop Use: Immediately stop using the Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint if you notice any adverse reactions.
• Cleanse Lips: Gently remove the tint from your lips using a mild makeup remover.

Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint vs. Traditional Lipsticks: The Clear Winner for Modern South African Life

When choosing your perfect lip colour, consider the advantages of Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Tint over traditional lipsticks:

• Longevity: Lipsticks often require frequent reapplication, especially after eating or drinking. Dear Darling Water Gel Tint offers hours of vibrant colour with minimal touch-ups, ideal for busy days.

• Lightweight Feel: Lipsticks can sometimes feel heavy or cakey on the lips. Dear Darling Water Gel Tint is incredibly lightweight and comfortable, feeling like a natural stain.
