The M.A.C. Hint of Colour Lip Oil Is the Color-Changing Gloss of Your Dreams

Color-changing lip balms have been taking over our lips for almost a year, but there's another magical lip product that we're dying to get our hands on now. The M.A.C. Hint of Colour Lip Oil has the same transformative power as Lipstick Queen's cult-favorite lipsticks and the almost-too-pretty-to-use Winky Lux Flower Balms — just in an oil-based gloss form. Just like the balms before it, it's seriously fueling our '90s nostalgia. PopSugar pointed out the existence of the lip oils yesterday. Ever since we laid eyes on them, we cannot stop scrolling through Instagram to see pictures of the new glosses in action. (We dare you to not kill a solid 10 minutes going through #machintofcolourlipoil. Go ahead, you deserve it.)
In the tube, the M.A.C. Hint of Colour Lip Oil looks like a colorful lip gloss in similar packaging as the new Lipglass. However, once it's been applied, the lip oil will give your pout a high-shine finish with a pretty Popsicle stain effect. So basically, the lip oil is like a lip stain and a lip gloss — all in one convenient tube. Count us in. Like the color-changing balms before it, the hues in the tubes aren't what show up on lips either. The yellow, for example, will change to a custom shade of pink depending on your body's pH.
There's a catch, though. The only inconvenient aspect of the lip oils: you can't shop them in the U.S. Unfortunately, they are only available in Asia at the moment. So, if you're heading to Hong Kong or Seoul this summer, you might want to pick up a couple shades for yourself — and a few for your closest friends.
