MAMONDE Creamy Tint Color Balm 2026: five checks for six shades and Prep Balm

The Korean lip crayon returns with one named classic and five new shades. Learn the six codes, the Olive Young-only option and how Prep Balm differs.

Korean brand MAMONDE announced the renewed Creamy Tint Color Balm on October 19, 2026. It was first introduced in 2016 and later discontinued; the new version has updated ingredients, texture and colors rather than proof of an identical old formula. A verified October 12 post from the brand's X account lists 01 Chilling Cherry, 02 Rosy Taro, 03 Mellow Rose, 04 Velvet Red, 05 Peach Nuts and 06 Healthy Rose. The manufacturer identifies 03 Mellow Rose as an Olive Young-exclusive shade in Korea. The separately released Creamy Tint Prep Balm prepares lips before color rather than being a seventh tinted shade. Brand statements about texture are not independently tested results.

  1. 01

    Distinguish the 2016 item from the 2026 version

    The original lip crayon debuted in 2016 and returned after a period off sale. Read the updated package and ingredients; an old review does not establish the current formula.

  2. 02

    Read all six color names

    The official 2026 lineup is 01 Chilling Cherry, 02 Rosy Taro, 03 Mellow Rose, 04 Velvet Red, 05 Peach Nuts and 06 Healthy Rose. The Korean Olive Young exclusive may not be sold by every international retailer.

  3. 03

    Separate the color crayon and preparation balm

    Creamy Tint Prep Balm is a pre-lip-makeup item, not another shade. Use it if your lips feel comfortable with it, following the actual ingredient and use labels.

  4. 04

    Apply a light layer from the center

    Begin with a small amount of color and blend gently outward. Increase intensity gradually only to preference; this practical technique is not an independent longevity or swatch test.

    Check reactions and market-specific product details

    The brand's X shade lineup is promotional information, not laboratory verification of every outcome. Check current national ingredients and availability; stop use if burning, itching or swelling develops.

✦ Helpful tips

  • Velvet Red is the returning shade name; do not infer the old and new formulas are identical.
  • The company's cumulative 10-million sales statement uses its own 2016–2020 shipment totals, not an independently verified user sample.

ⓘ Keep in mind

  • Avoid applying over painful, cracked or bleeding lips and do not scrub away peeling skin.
  • Individual color results and comfort vary. No personal trial or medical benefit is claimed.
