Color That Actually Feels Good

There's the lip tint you find at the bottom of your bag, sticky and already smudged on your phone screen. Then there's this one—the one that makes your lips feel better at the end of the day than they did at the start. Six shades, each one a cross between actual color and the kind of hydration that makes you forget you're wearing anything at all.

Not lip stain dry. Not lipstick heavy. Just color that sits on your lips like it belongs there. The kind where someone asks if you're wearing anything and you have to think about it for a second.

People opened these in the car and texted asking where to buy them. That's how you know they work.

What Makes Our Lip Tints Special?

  • Six shades: Sunflower (bronze shimmer), Berry (rich plum), Cranberry (warm red), Posie (blush nude shimmer), Blossom (glazed shimmer), and Petal (pale plum-pink shimmer). Each shade uses mineral-based color — iron oxides and mica — with no synthetic dyes.
  • Organic plant oils: Babassu, castor, coconut, and cocoa butter alongside calendula and rosemary extracts, vitamin E, and honey. These are the base of the formula, not added for label appeal — they're what gives the tint its texture and glide.
  • Buildable, not patchy: One swipe for barely-there color; layer up for more. Doesn't settle into lines or wear off in patches the way lip stain does. Fades naturally through the day.
  • Lightly vanilla-flavored: Organic, skin-safe vanilla — present but not cloying. No artificial flavor.
  • 30% less plastic: Plant cellulose tubes use less plastic than standard lip product packaging. Twist-up, same as any standard lip product.
  • Reformulated: Brought back with a silkier glide and richer color than the original version. Same moisturizing oil base, improved formula.

Pair with the Honey Lip Balm first if your lips are already dry — it makes the tint glide on smoother.

How to Use: Apply straight from the tube to clean lips. One layer for subtle color; build up for more. Works alone or under gloss. Lasts through coffee and a meal, fades naturally. Reapply as needed. Use within six months of opening and store away from heat and direct sunlight. External use only. Discontinue if irritation occurs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lip Tints

No, lip tint is not the same as lipstick. While both add color to your lips, lip tints have a lighter, more natural finish compared to lipsticks. Lipsticks typically provide opaque coverage and a creamy texture, while our Bee Inspired Lip Tints offer a sheer wash of color that enhances your natural lip tone. Think of lip tints as a subtle enhancement rather than a complete color change. Our formula combines the best aspects of tinted lip balm with beautiful, buildable color.

Lip tints work by delivering translucent, buildable color through lightweight formulations that allow your natural lip texture to show through. Our Bee Inspired Lip Tints combine light-reflecting minerals with transparent base oils to create color that appears to merge with your lips rather than sitting heavily on top. The lightweight formula allows the product to glide on smoothly while the organic oils and beeswax penetrate to moisturize your lips. You can apply a single layer for a hint of color or build up multiple layers for a more pronounced effect, all while maintaining the natural look and comfort that makes lip tints so popular.

Yes! Our Bee Inspired Lip Tints are specifically formulated to be deeply moisturizing. Unlike some color products that can dry out your lips, our lip tints contain organic beeswax, babassu oil, and cocoa butter that actively condition and hydrate your lips while providing color. The 87-95% organic ingredient formulation means your lips receive genuine nourishment with every application. If you struggle with dry, chapped lips but still want color, our moisturizing lip tints are the perfect solution.

Lip tints generally offer moderate staying power that outlasts many lip balms but may not persist as long as heavy matte lipsticks. Our Bee Inspired Lip Tints are formulated to provide gentle color that gradually fades rather than disappearing in patches. The mineral-based pigments we use help the color absorb slightly into the lips, giving improved wear time while maintaining comfort. For maximum longevity, apply to clean, exfoliated lips and build up in thin layers rather than one thick application.

Absolutely! Our Bee Inspired Lip Tints are specifically formulated for daily use. Unlike some color cosmetics that can be drying or irritating with constant application, our lip tints contain nourishing ingredients like organic plant oils, vitamin E, and soothing beeswax that actively improve lip condition over time. The gentle formulation without harsh chemicals makes them suitable for sensitive lips and everyday wear. Many customers report that their lips actually feel better after switching to our lip tints as their daily lip product.

Wonderful tinted lip balm! Plumps lips & makes

Wonderful tinted lip balm! Plumps lips & makes them feel plush soft & protected. The benefits are immediately apparent! The cranberry tint is beautiful, can be lightly or more deeply applied for desired color intensity, looks universally flattering & natural . I will definitely try the other tints.
Highly recommend!

Bit of a downgrade from the old formula

For some people, this will be a great product - but I loved the original formula so much more. It was silky smooth with a hint of color, and the new formula is a lot thicker and more pigmented (closer to lipstick, which isn't what I'm personally looking for). However, if you pair this with one of the lip glosses (I use the lemon), you'll get something MUCH closer to the OG formula since it fades the color out a bit and makes it smoother.

Hey Kelsey, Just want to make sure you know that there really were only minor changes to scent (we went from citrus to vanilla) and we added a bit of shimmer and added calendula. Other than that the formula is really quite similar! We hop with that in mind you can enjoy!!!

Cranberry lip tint

LOVE! Not a fan of lipstick, always have Chapstick with me but wanted something more colorful and organic, love lip gloss, but it fades and is sticky, this is a perfect compromise.

Thank you for leaving a review for our Bee Inspired Lip Tints! We are so glad to hear that you are loving the Cranberry shade. We strive to provide a natural and vibrant option for those who prefer a more colorful and organic lip product. Thank you for choosing us as your go-to for a non-sticky and long-lasting lip tint! --Kara

Love it!

I just received the Sunflower lip tint today (which came incredibly fast!) and I placed my second order today! I ordered the set of lip tints, the cocoa body butter and the double espresso soy candle. I have a feeling that this site will be addictive. In the best possible way of course!

With my first order, I also received a recipe for fudge. Sounds like something I will have to try!

I love the mission of the company. Thanks Sara and team! Already looking forward to my next order arriving! :)

Finally found MY perfect Nude lip

I have natural reddish pink lips and it’s so hard to find lip tints that work with my coloring and cool undertones. But then I bought the sweet lips lip tint in red rose and it enhances my lip color beautifully. No make-up and one swipe of this across my lips and my complexion just comes alive. Oh! And did I mention how soft it keeps my lips. Definitely a win win!

Love this product

I do not even know how I found Waxing Kara but so glad I did. I absolutely LOVE the lip balm! It is just the right amount of color with out drying out my lips. I had been hooked on a major brand for decades until I found Waxing Kara. It cost a little more but is worth it.

Thanks so much Susie! It's great to hear from you!

Review

I discovered these products when I was in Easton, MD on a business trip. I started out with the plain Sweet Lips and discovered online that they come in tints! As a life long red lipstick wearer, as my lifestyle has changed to a more casual one, these tinted lip balms provide just the right amount of color to keep you from looking washed out. The Cranberry is a cool red, just the right shade for me since I have blue undertones in my skin. I brightens my smile like no other tinted lip balm. I always keep two tubes, one for the purse and one for the house. I also love that they are clean and chemical free!

Review

If you have a fair/light complexion with cool undertones like I do; you can’t go wrong with the sweet lips in cranberry. It’s the perfect blue-red color. But what I love most about this lip balm is I don’t feel the need to constantly reapply. It doesn’t make my lips feel sticky just soft and moisturized. And the color looks natural and lasts for hours and hours.

Blossom honey lip tint is my go-to for everyday lip hydration. Just enough tint but not too much for use all of the time. I love it.

Review

I like that the blossom is a soft touch of shimmery pink, nothing over bearing. I'm not much of a lil stick person, but I love chapstick, so this is perfect. Smooth on your lips and doesn't have the stickiness of lip gloss or lipstick.
