ColourPop Can’t Bare It Just a Tint Lippie Tint Duo Review & Swatches

Can't Bare It

Colour Pop Can’t Bare It Lip Duo ($11.00 for oz.) includes two semi-sheer, tinted lip pencils in muted peach and a warmer, mid-tone brown. Both shades leaned warm and had a more luminous sheen–not overly shimmery but had a noticeable shine. They were easy to apply, comfortable to wear, and stayed on well three to four hours backed by a hydrating formula.

Overexposed

Overexposed is a medium, slightly muted peach with warm, brown undertones and a natural sheen. It had buildable coverage from semi-sheer to semi-opaque (two layers), which applied fairly evenly but there was a bit of product that sank into my deeper lip lines–just not enough to be noticeable in person (only in the close-up photos).

The consistency was lightweight, smooth, and thin without being clingy, and it had the slip and feel of a stick lip balm but didn’t slide around too easily. It lasted nicely for three and a half hours and was moisturizing while worn.

Formula Overview

$7.00/0.07 oz. - $100.00 Per Ounce

The formula is described as "the perfection sheer wash of colour in the comfiest, lightweight, super moisturizing formula." Here's the big takeaway... they are not that sheer; they're not a wash of color. They have medium to semi-opaque, buildable coverage with a few shades being more true medium in coverage; I just wouldn't say they're sheer nor just a wash. That medium to semi-opaque level of coverage still allows for some translucency, which gives the color a lighter look that's more like a stain.

The texture was creamy, thin, lightweight, and balm-like; I'd actually say it felt like a gel-like balm because it had the cushion-like slip of a lip balm but had the smoothing prowess of more gel-based formulas. The most impressive aspect of the formula was how little the colors sank into my lip lines and how forgiving they were with imperfections in lip texture. The wear time varied from two and a half to four hours on me, and the formula was lightly hydrating over time. They have a sweet, fruity scent (passionfruit per their website) but no discernible taste.
