I haven't tried the Benefit liptint, but I have the bottle of Benetint. I have the red shade of Philosophy's "Kiss Me" lipbalm that looks like it's similar to Benefit's. I love it, but my lips are uber-chapped right now, so I'm in the healing process.
For anyone who has super-chapped, dry, or cracked lips (and found that chapstick isn't working), try this. Every morning after you brush your teeth, rinsh off the brush and gently brush your lips to remove the dead skin. Apply a layer of Blistex Lip Revitalizer (it has alpha hydroxy in it to exfoliate). Then apply a layer of Aquaphor ointment. You'll find it with the lotions since it's made by the same company that makes Eucerin. Most drugstores have a store brand version of it. Do this RELIGIOUSLY (ie. whenever you feel it wearing off, reapply the Blistex and then the Aquaphor) until your lips have healed. I have this nasty habit of biting the inside of my lips when I'm nervous, so I always had dry patches of skin there where it was trying to heal. I found this regimen on a dermatologist's website and have only been doing it for a week now and my lips are practically good as new.
