Read More TikTokers have been selling this out on Amazon at full price for years, so run, do not walk. As a Senior Shopping Writer at BuzzFeed, I specialize in a broad range of topics, including beauty, cleaning, fashion, personal care, home, fitness, and my beloved “TikTok made me buy it.” My work has been featured across lifestyle and writing publications during my ten years in the digital media space, including Bustle, HuffPost, HelloGiggles, and The Washington Post. In an interview with Polygon, the trilogy's hair and makeup designer Peter Swords King shared that he chose the lip tint for Arwen's iconic look because it had “dark undertones, but at the same time it was sheer so [it] would look like the color of her lips rather than lipstick.” This was the first TikTok I saw of someone using it on their lips AND cheeks, and this thing FELL into my cart at full price. In case you want to join me on this deep dive, here's another one and yet another one. LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL LIPPIE GO!! "The color is gorgeous! The perfect 'barely there' hint of darkness. It enhances your natural lip color and, without any cayenne pepper or plumping chemicals, it makes your lips look fuller naturally. It feels great — not sticky, not drying. Not too glossy. Love the size of the slim tube. Easy to pop into a small bag. Thank you, Clinique!" —Wayne H. "My go-to holy grail. If I could only have one lipstick for the rest of my life, I'd pick this one. It hydrates and the color goes with everything. Natural with a little oompf. A tube lasts me about six months. I have to reapply after eating/drinking." —Lemonpoppyseed "THE cult favorite color that looks good on everyone! I don't know how Clinique did it, but somehow this lip color looks great on EVERYONE. It's like a natural lip color, but better. Not warm, not cool — just perfect neutral. Moisturizing, glides on like buttah." —Carrie Pfeiffer —Quirky Things On Sale For Prime Day You Won’t Be Able To Resist —What Parents Should Actually Buy During Prime Day —Things You’ll Want To Splurge On During Prime Day —Things At Their Lowest-Ever Prices This Prime Day And check out our roundups of the best deals across a variety of categories, including home, beauty, food & kitchen, practical, under-$25, TikTok finds, and more.
