Finding the perfect "my lips but better" lip tint can feel like a quest. For those with fair to light skin tones, the search for a cool-toned, muted rose that delivers natural enhancement without looking overly pigmented or garish can be particularly challenging. This article delves into my personal experience swatching several Dior Lip Tattoo shades, specifically focusing on the quest for a natural rose shade comparable to my holy grail – the rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint in #19 Almond Rose. I'm a NW13, and my goal was to find a Dior Lip Tattoo that offered a similar level of subtle, natural enhancement.
My journey began in-store, armed with my trusty rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint in #19 Almond Rose as my control shade. This tint, with its delicate, cool-toned rose hue, perfectly complements my complexion without appearing overly made-up. It's the benchmark against which I judged all the Dior Lip Tattoos I sampled. Let's dive into the swatches and reviews.
The Swatches (from top to bottom):
While I didn't specifically swatch every single Dior Lip Tattoo shade, I focused on those that, based on online descriptions and visual comparisons, seemed most likely to match my desired cool-toned, muted rose aesthetic. The order of swatches below reflects the order in which I tested them in-store. Note that lighting conditions in-store can affect the perceived shade, and individual results may vary due to factors such as skin undertones and the way the tint interacts with individual lip chemistries.
1. Dior Lip Tattoo Natural Berry: This shade initially seemed promising. Described as a "natural berry," it presented a slightly deeper, more purplish rose than my control shade. However, the "berry" undertone was more prominent than I preferred. While beautiful on its own, the cool-toned mauve leaning slightly towards berry was not the subtle, natural rose I was seeking. It was more of a statement lip, offering a noticeable pop of colour rather than a "my lips but better" effect. On my NW13 skin, it appeared slightly too strong and dramatic for everyday wear. The staying power, as expected from a Dior Lip Tattoo, was excellent, lasting through meals and leaving a lovely stain.
2. Dior Addict Lip Tattoo 421 (Natural Pink): This shade was closer to my goal. The "Natural Pink" description was more accurate than the "Natural Berry." 421 offered a softer, more muted rose than the previous shade. The colour payoff was still quite noticeable, but it was significantly less intense than the Natural Berry. It leaned slightly warmer than my rom&nd control shade, possessing a hint of peachiness that was not unwelcome, but still not quite the cool-toned rose I craved. The longevity was impressive, maintaining a subtle stain throughout the day.
