Bloom & Plush pH Glossy Tint Duo review: my honest take

ReviewCompareRoutineInsideSetsTipsFAQs

*As stated by SeneGence.

The Bloom & Plush Duo is both shades of LipSense pH Glossy Tint, Cherry Bloom and Enchanted Orchid, in one set. SeneGence says the tint is pH-reactive, meaning it reacts with your lips to give a personalized sheer pink or coral with high shine. At $52 it’s the cheapest set in the lip lineup.

No shade matching, no layering. It's the lip product I'd hand to a friend who wears none.

The appeal is how little thought it needs. There’s no shade-matching and no layering; the tint does its own thing on your lips. SeneGence says you can wear it alone or over LipSense, so it works as a standalone gloss or as a shiny top layer. It suits anyone who wants a my-lips-but-better look, or a gift for someone whose coloring you’re unsure of.

A single LipSense pH Glossy Tint is $26, so the duo is the same $52 as buying both. It’s still the easiest way to get the full pair. If you want a stronger color that stays put, start with LipSense Liquid Lip Color. For a plumping feel instead, see the Pink Pucker Duo.

On its own, the tint is a one-step lip. SeneGence says you can also wear it over LipSense, so on long days you can put down a color first and use Cherry Bloom or Enchanted Orchid as the shiny top layer. If LipSense went underneath, take it off with Ooops! at night.

What’s in the set piece by piece

• Cherry Bloom: one of the two shades of LipSense pH Glossy Tint, $26 on its own.
