Milk Makeup vs Kylie Cosmetics vs Aker Fassi: Full Review

We tested the lip and cheek tints from Milk Makeup, Kylie Cosmetics and Aker Fassi. Check out our honest review of these viral products here! 

1. Milk Makeup – Cooling Water Jelly Tint

The viral Colling Water Jelly tint by Milk Makeup had taken over social media, and everyone wanted to add it to their makeup vanity. It is a first-of-its-kind tint with a bouncy, Jello-like texture that looks edible but certainly is not. This jelly tint comes in a water-based stick designed to give you that sheer, watercolour-like wash of colour that will stay for long hours, giving your face a long-lasting finish.

• Pros:

• This jelly tint is extremely long-wearing. Once it sets, its stain becomes smudge-proof and transfer-proof.

• Provides an immediate cooling and refreshing sensation upon application.

• Dries down to a weightless, natural look that doesn't feel sticky.

• The formula of this tint is vegan, cruelty-free, and non-comedogenic.

• Cons:

• You must blend it immediately, or it will leave a patchy stain that won’t budge.

• The jelly stick has a fragile texture that can break or pop out of the tube if handled too roughly.

2. Kylie Cosmetics – Lip & Cheek Blush Tint

From the house of Kylie Cosmetics comes a new product, their lip and cheek blush tint. This blush tint has a lightweight, fluid-cream formula that comes in a convenient squeeze tube packaging. It is perfect for people looking for that ‘second-skin’ finish with their blush placements. You will get a soft-focus, blurring effect that will give you a natural flush of radiance from within. 

• Pros:

• This has a silky, liquid-to-cream texture that melts into the skin more easily than regular blushes.

• It has a buildable coverage which allows you to go from a very sheer tint to a medium-intensity blush without looking cakey.

• With its blurring effect, this Kylie Cosmetics blush is formulated to smooth out the look of skin texture and lip lines.

• This does not feel drying on the lips, unlike the traditional water-based stains.

• Cons:

• Being a cream-fluid, it doesn't ‘stain’ the skin as deeply and requires more touch-ups.

• The squeeze tube can sometimes dispense too much product if you aren't careful.

• Some users find the lighter shades too sheer for deeper skin tones.

3. Aker Fassi – Moroccan Lip & Cheek Tint

The viral traditional blush you have seen all over Instagram is a hidden Moroccan beauty secret. It is made from dried poppy petals and pomegranate rind, baked into a terracotta clay pot. This blush offers a solid pigment toyour skin and gets activated with water or oil.

• Pros:

• It is 100% organic, making it the most natural option available.

• The formula contains zero chemicals, preservatives, or synthetic dyes.

• This delivers a ‘brick-red’ or a ‘burnt rose’ hue that is very difficult to replicate with modern makeup.

• Usually comes in a reusable or biodegradable clay pot with zero plastic waste.

• You control the pigment by how much water you add. Add very light for a flush, or deep for a bold look. 

• Cons:

• Is high maintenance and will require a wet brush or a damp finger to activate

• It is less convenient for ‘on-the-go’ touch-ups.

• Since it is a true dye, it will stain your fingertips instantly if you don't use a brush.

• Since it is a water-activated powder, it can dry on the lips unless topped with a balm or argan oil.

These were our honest reviews of the lip and cheek tint, which is the best amongst Milk Makeup, Kylie Cosmetics and Aker Fassi. We would recommend that you thoroughly read about our experience before investing in these lip and blush tints.
