The brand new Glossier Ultralip lipstick come tinted lip balm is causing quite a stir and for all the right reasons. After months of mask-wearing, lip colour is well and truly on its way back. Here’s a look at the new formula with photos and swatches.

What is Glossier Ultra Lip?

The tagline for this lip product is hydrating shine + colour and I love that this is a true hybrid of lip care and makeup. Glossier are dubbing this as the cashmere sweatpants of lipstick.

  • Buildable colour of a lip tint
  • Sheen of a lip gloss
  • Rich moisture of a balm
  • Enriched with Hyaluronic Acid blend plus three nourishing oils
  • Soft buttery texture
  • Available in nine buildable shades at Glossier*

Glossier Ultralip Key Ingredients

The luxurious formula comprises of:

  • 4HA – Exclusive to Glossier, this unique blend of four different molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid to deeply hydrate
  • Meadowfoam Seed Oil – an excellent source of fatty acids and antioxidants that helps soften lips, locks in moisture, and provides smooth application

My Review

Highlights

  • Easy to apply
  • Very comfortable and nourishing
  • Buildable and versatile
  • Long lasting shine and hydration
  • Flattering shades

I absolutely love this launch from Glossier because everything about it is easy. Ultralip is easy to apply, easy to wear and easy to choose because all the shades are super wearable.

I could get wear out of all them I think, although the Lucite shade is just a teeny bit on the pale side for me. I can still make it work though.

What I love most is that the formula feels balmy and glossy, and super luxurious – way more than its £14 price tag.

The question is, would you like to see lip swatches?

UPDATE – Instagram says yes! Lip swatches coming soon – watch this space.

Where to buy them

Glossier Ultralip is £14 and available now.

  • Hi Ree, I was just wondering which you would rate better – the Glossier Ultralip or Charlotte Tilbury Hyaluronic Happikiss? I am torn between them. Many thanks x

    • Hi Lorraine – love them both. I think the colour payoff on the CT is more intense and immediate, but the Glossier is buildable and feels a bit lighter. Hope that helps xxx
