The original Merit lip oils didn’t stain on my lips and that’s what I wanted when I used it. I saw these last month but chose not to buy them because swatched on my hand it was so sheer. Today, I tried them out and so glad I did! I noticed they left the stain and there was more pigment than what I saw on my hand. I bought Mapleton. These don’t have the plumping affect like Rare Beauty ones. They are also leaving less pigmented stains. But I don’t mind.
Hello there! Yes. It is two different formulas. The original lip oils are just that, and nurturing oil but the newest gelee versions leave a stain. And they are lovely
@Not Fit for Print Beauty I just bought the Huda in the Rose. I almost bought the coral and berry as well but I figured I should make sure I like the formula before I go crazy buying them all 🤪 haha
I just picked up two of the rare beauty lip oils. They were exactly what I was looking for. I am going on a cruise shortly and I wanted something that would leave a stain so that I didn’t have to constantly monitor my lipstick. I also didn’t want the drying affect of a liquid lipstick.
You are delightful! I wanted to try the red Rare Beauty blush for a while so I ordered that and the Maraschino lip oil to go together. I also got the Mapleton shade of refresh the shine on my Rare Beauty lip oil without adding much more color. Excited!!
Good morning Rebecca, I like these over the Rare Beauty.All the shades are lovely.Les Duex is my favorite!! I will pick it up during the Sephora sale !! Thanks for the awesome video !! 💕Arleen
Rebecca, these remind me of the Lip Glosses that Lethal released last year. They hardly had any pigment to them but a slight touch of colour that changed the product underneath. I don't know how a Lip Oil will go on my lips. When I've used regular oils in the past, they don't seem to settle in. These appear to be quite different as your test showed. I'll save this video for when the time comes to purchase a new product. Thanks so much for showing and testing all of these products that I wouldn't know about if not for you. What a star!🌠 🇦🇺💖🕊
How kind of you! This is a fun one. I like the fact that after the glow is gone the tint remains. It’s a very nice way to do lip color without having to constantly touch it up. I don’t think any of these new oils are really all that lip oil like. I am the lip product queen because I have such dry lips and neither of these really feel that much like an oil. Much more like a gel.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I've saved your video for when I require another lip product. I go through them quite fast due to my dry lips too. I'm quite looking forward to these. Thank you!💖
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I'm like that with lipstick! I've got a few that have disappeared completely, never to be recovered. If ever my current favourite isn't in its spot, I know that it'll be in my handbag. As my regular vehicle is a small Motorhome, Ford Transit, I don't reach over and put things in the glove box. That's full of a First Aid Kit, driving gloves, the SAS Survival Guide and other things that reference being on the road. One less place to store things! Problem is that I have a bundle of handbags that I keep swapping around and I'm always searching through them. It was only a few weeks ago that I stored all my Lip Glosses together in one container. I had bought another six from ABH and desperately needed somewhere to put them. I'm getting better organised, little by little - slowly.💖
Hello Sydney! My favorite is the Mapleton. Maraschino is like a hot pink red. But not that disgusting hot pink that most of those PH lip products turn, thankfully, or you would’ve heard my frustrated scream when I applied it. Ha ha
I like these colors a lot! I tend to use lip oils at night to keep my lips moist while I sleep. I think the Merit Beauty colors will keep me from waking up with lip oil stains on my pillow cases and sheets.
Good Morning Rebecca 😊 The lip oils look very pretty! May just have to try one. Putting my Sephora cart together and waiting for the sale event to get the discount. Hugs 🤗 🌺
Agreed. But, that being said, so much of that Ph stuff is marketing speak. When you think about it, Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks always look orange on me. They go pink on others. So the Ph component is always at play, you know?
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty wow I never thought of that! You could be right. If I'm thinking what you're thinking, essentially Ph tech goes hand in hand with color theory?
@@beautifulcorpse8202 totally. It’s like when a gasoline company say that their brand of gasoline cleans your engine. In reality, even though it’s flammable and dangerous, gasoline is a cleanser. So they’re taking a certain thing that all gasoline does anyway and making it the selling point. I believe all color reacts differently with the skin tone and underlying base etc. etc. In other words any color applied to the face has a bit of a pH reaction. They just make that the marketing standpoint. I really believe that to be true.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty that makes a lot of sense, you're totally right. Ty for the perspective! I won't fall for this marketing tactic anymore lol. Btw you're beautiful and I love your channel already; just found it today and subscribed :)💜
You are FAR too kind. Thank you so much! I noticed that they actually build up nicely in layers and show better that way. That's like three layers in this video.
@@pinksparkle258 No scent. No flavor. Darn it, why do I work without a script? Should have said that. BUT BUT BUT Rare have a definite mint sensation and feel and I do NOT feel it!!!!! So, with these, who knows! haha.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty well I've been making my list & checking it twice...the Sephora VIB sale list!! Still might grab one but I was hoping for a scent or flavor for these!!
I wish there was more differentiation among the shades. The first is my favorite as well. But the colors do end up looking fairly similar, just a bit darker as they go along.
Hi Rebecca my friend sorry 🙏 I'm late to watch but I was busy doing laundry and cleaning out my cat's litter boxes now she has 2 one for downstairs and one upstairs of my house 🏡 cause she's older cat 🙀 and noticed she has trouble getting up and down on the stairs cause of hip joints and I noticed for awhile she was hesitant the stairs at times and found out she peed on my master bath 🛀 room accent rug so it told me she couldn't make it and she had a UTI cause she's a female 🚺 LOL 😂 poor kitty 🐈 but now she's happier ... so far 🤞🙏👍💋💕🙋♀️🍀 hope you got my photos of Bellagio and my husband and I being silly 😋 for the 2023 Spring season floral display 🌷🐣🐇🥚 happy Easter weekend!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty nope she's doing better now so that's good so far but she might have a loose tooth coming since she does have bad teeth when we first got her they said the foster parent said the Vet said she has gingivitis and bacteria from her mother im assuming she wasn't taken care of when the cat 🙀 was born ... sad 😔
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty thanks Rebecca I do try my best at home 🏡 now a days we can learn alot on RUclips even with vets before spending $1,000 now a days but if she couldn't walk then I would take her in
I bought Joy from Rare Beauty and it doesn’t leave a stain for me….. but I’m always the weirdo that things react differently on 😅 I’m def getting one of these Merits during the Sephora sale - love the other 2 I have.
MICHELLE! WHAT??? We need to get to the bottom of this. BUT BUT BUT...ya know what? I can NOT, for the life of me, feel the mint in the Rare product and people are telling me that it lingers for an hour. I'm like, "WHAT mint???" So you and I can be weirdos together! Let's have some weirdo cake and go on a weirdo vacation. haha!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty YESSSS!!! I meant to ask why you never mentioned the plumping minty thing! ANNDDDDDD I find it has a terrible taste like chemicals! I’m keeping the one I have cause I love the color but I’m not getting any more which is a shame. I can get past the cooling/plumping but I can’t get past the taste. I was wondering why you left out those details. 🤣🤣
@@michelleisabel Michelle, I can't tell! I can't tell! hahahha. And RIGHT NOW LITERALLY I am chewing mint gum and I can taste it, I promise. But not in the lip oil. I swear a I need medical help.

You are so adorable. Thanks for the review. I have been looking into these since they launched. I agree with you for not picking up the clear one .
THANK YOU!!! and, yes, the clear one? Not needed...like by ANYONE, you know?
I like the clarins lip oils so interested to see what else is out there
I’ve heard good things about those! I’ll have to try one!
Ooo those Clarins oils are so good!
Thanks Rebecca
Thank YOU Lorrina!
That was a good test, blotting. Can you do the same with the original merit formula and let us know if that one stains?
Hello Annie! The original merit will come off with a tissue and not leave a stain 💕
@Not Fit for Print Beauty thanks Rebecca
Ooh ordered these too!! Lol I loved the OG merit oil lip product and this looks great❤
I LOVE the OG Merit too!!!!
Rebecca, which one would you say is the most pigmented as far as leaving a stain? I'm late to the game here but I'm def interested in these!
I’d say Huda is most pigmented 💕
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty awesome thanks!
@@whitneybarringer6719 💕💕
@Not Fit for Print Beauty I just bought the Huda in the Rose. I almost bought the coral and berry as well but I figured I should make sure I like the formula before I go crazy buying them all 🤪 haha
I didn’t even see these! I love merit. I am going to try the Mapleton. They all look great
They are so pretty especially layered. That's three layers for each shade. then it really shows.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty sometimes u just want a hint of color that’s nice.

I love a good lip oil and I’ve really been enjoying the products I’ve purchased from merit. I think I might try one.
It's SUCH a pretty one. And how dare I accuse it of not being a stain. Shame on me. haha.
Oh these seem right up my alley. I don't like a "harsh" stain, especially on my fair skin
This is totally for you, then, Daniele!!
I have never tried a lip oil so maybe it’s time that I did. The mapleton looks like a lovely shade to start with 😊💕
They did it right. Just enough stain. Just enough gloss. Just enough lip care. This is a good one.

Does the merit lip color in maraschino turn into that hot pink stain like most of those ph lip products? Which is your favorite?

I am holding off on all my skincare refills for the sale so it can't come fast enough. I'm like parceling out the products until then.
Thank you . Think I’ll stick with the classics. I like the slight pigment/stain it leaves on the lip. Hope you are well. Happy Easter everyone
Happy Easter to you, too!!!
I had gone to get one the the Mario ones and I ended up returning it. It didn't last for even 30 min's! I was really disappointed as I loved the color
You'll like this or the Rare better Renee. I solemnly promise.
I read that they are much more pigmented on the lips and look different on everyone bc they designed the oils to adjust to the Ph balance of your lips
