Lip combos are beautiful, but they have one major flaw: you need time to reapply them. Imagine leaving home early in the morning and not having the chance to touch up your lipstick and lip liner until late at night. Social media algorithms have found a solution that seems to satisfy everyone: peel-off lip tints. These products promise long-lasting color, almost like a semi-permanent lip tattoo.
What are peel off lip tints and why are they so viral?
Peel-off lip tints provide long-lasting color through a unique application and removal process. The lip tint from Wonderskin, for example, is making waves. It's available in various shades, though its first application stands out for two unusual colors: electric blue and gold with violet shimmer. Once the layer dries, you only need to peel it off to reveal the desired color. The secret to this lip tint’s engagement success lies in one key ingredient: a strong visual hook. Videos often start the same way—right at the moment of peeling off the top layer—creating a small teaser, like an Easter egg, of the color underneath.
How Do Peel-Off Lip Tints Work?
This beauty hack, loved by celebrities, stands out for its application method. Peel-off lip tints first gained popularity in 2017, with early reviews of products like WOW Tint. Even Clio Make-Up tested Berrisom My Lip Tint on her blog. Today, while formulas have evolved, the iconic application process remains the same:
Application
- Apply the peel-off lip tint on clean, dry lips in an even layer.
- Stay within the lip contours for a precise result.
Drying Process
- Allow the lip stain to dry completely, which takes a few minutes depending on the formula.
- As it dries, the tint forms a thin film on the lips.
Peeling (Removal)
- Once dry, gently peel off the film.
- The stain remains, leaving behind a long-lasting color.
Sacheu and the Billie Eilish Viral Phenomenon
On the Sacheu website, peel-off lip tints sold out rapidly, thanks to a viral make-up routine video by Billie Eilish. The singer showcased how she preps her lips before going on stage, and in just a few hours, fans around the world began replicating her technique. As a performer, Billie needs long-lasting beauty products. According to her, the Sacheu lip tint is a must-have. However, she doesn’t apply it traditionally. Instead, she uses it as a lip liner, creating a nude, pigmented, and durable contour. With brands like NYX developing "ink effect" lip products—such as the Lip IV Gloss Stain—it’s clear that peel-off makeup is on the rise.
