Overview

E.l.f. Hydrating Core Lip Shine in Ecstatic Deep Berry is a tinted lip balm built with shea butter and vitamin E for a glossy, sheer finish. It suits anyone wanting a moisturizing gloss-balm hybrid rather than a matte or opaque lip product.

This sits between a balm and a gloss, with a finish described as glossy and sheer rather than fully pigmented, in a cool-toned, light-depth berry shade. Shea butter and vitamin E are positioned as the moisture drivers rather than shine agents alone. The formula is paraben and phthalate free.

  • Shea butter and vitamin E formula
  • Sheer, cool-toned berry shade
  • Glossy finish
  • Paraben and phthalate free

Who it's for

Works for people who want lip moisture with a light wash of cool-toned berry color and shine. Not the choice for anyone wanting a bold, opaque lip color.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • Shea butter and vitamin E formula targets moisture
  • Paraben and phthalate free
  • Glossy finish without a full-color commitment
What to check first
  • Sheer, cool-toned shade will not suit those wanting bold pigment
  • Glossy finish means more frequent reapplication than a matte

Performance notes

Shea butter and vitamin E sit at the core of the formula, aimed at long-lasting moisture rather than transfer-resistant wear. Because the coverage is sheer and the undertone cool, the shade shifts closer to a natural lip tone in daylight than a swatch might suggest, and the finish leans glossy rather than sticky.
