Clinique Lips: the essentials of Clinique lip make-up

Clinique lip make-up brings together lipsticks, tinted balms, glosses and oil to create a defined or naturally tinted mouth, with matte, satin or shiny finishes depending on the mood of the day. This Clinique Lips selection highlights formulas designed for comfort, whether you want a bold colour for the day or an everyday tinted treatment.

Lipsticks for every finish

At Clinique, lipstick comes in several textures. The Dramatically Different Lipstick Rouge à Lèvres Contour Parfait draws a clean outline and a pigmented colour, while the Pop™ Rouge à Lèvres Longue Tenue Fini Brillant, Satiné et Mat gives a choice of several finishes depending on the look you want. For a more structured colour and extended definition, the Pop Matte Lip Colour + Primer combines a priming base with its colour, in a single application.

For days when you prefer a lighter touch of colour, the Almost Lipstick Baume à lèvres teinté in the shade Black Honey adds a subtle hue, close to the natural colour of the lips, halfway between skincare and make-up.

Balms, oil and gloss: skincare in colour

The Chubby Stick Baume à Lèvres Hydratant Teinté slips into any make-up bag for quick application, with no mirror or brush, and suits lips that above all seek suppleness. In a similar spirit, the Clinique Pop™ Huile pour Lèvres et Joues, also available in the shade Black Honey, adds shine and a hint of colour in a single product, which can be used on both the lips and the tops of the cheekbones. The Pop Plush™ Gloss à Lèvres Crémeux completes this family for a shiny finish and a feeling of comfort renewed throughout the day.

Wear and application tips

Wear varies depending on the texture chosen: a matte lipstick will last longer than a gloss or an oil, whose primary purpose remains shine and a sensation of lightness. To make the colour last, it helps to apply the product to well-prepared lips, blotting the excess with a tissue before a second coat if you want a more intense result. Tinted balms and lip oil, meanwhile, are applied in a single pass and are simply reapplied throughout the day, with no particular technique.

Which formats for which occasions

For a day at the office or everyday use, tinted balms and lip oil lend themselves to quick application, without needing frequent touch-ups. For an event where colour needs to stay crisp for longer, the lipstick formats in Clinique lip make-up offer more pronounced coverage and a more precise line. Gloss, for its part, suits those who want shine and visual volume, alongside a stroke of lip liner or on its own over bare lips.
