This offer is as enticing as a sweet treat.
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the highly sought-after Clinique Black Honey Almost Lipstick is available at the reduced price of $19. This beloved berry hue has captivated beauty enthusiasts worldwide, with a remarkable seven tubes sold every minute across the globe. Its appeal extends beyond the masses, with a storied history of celebrity endorsement.
Back in the day, stars like Julia Roberts, Kate Moss, and Liv Tyler were known to sport this iconic blackberry shade, which has remained a classic favorite over the years. Recently, the timeless allure of Black Honey has been embraced by modern icons such as Emilia Clarke and Reese Witherspoon, showcasing its enduring charm.
The secret to its popularity, according to Clinique, lies in its unique formulation. The lipstick appears dark in the tube but transforms into a sheer, custom color on the lips, thanks to its emollient-rich formula that adapts to each wearer, creating a personalized hue.
Emilia Clarke, who serves as a brand ambassador, shared her experience with the product in a social media post. She described it as initially intimidating in appearance but ultimately “amazing,” delivering a “dewy, blush of dreams.” Clarke also highlighted its buildable nature, allowing users to easily intensify the color to their liking.
The brand has expanded the iconic shade into an entire Honey collection of eyeshadows, glosses and more makeup — including Black Honey’s softer counterparts.
The sister shades Nude Honey and Pink Honey are also on sale for a price that’s more 1999 than 2026.
The balmy, emollient texture is perfect for winter’s chapped-lips months, not to mention any Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day celebration you may want to embrace a romantic look for. (And, with Prime, it can be at your house by tomorrow.)
Among the over 11,000 five-star reviews, the honey hues get glowing feedback like, “This product is gorgeous and hydrating. It is also buildable, and you can achieve a bolder color with several layers if that is what you want. I find it to be a great ‘everyday wear’ lip color.”
A fan of the Nude Honey option said it’s keeping her winter-parched lips soft, and it has “quickly become my go-to lip balm. It is just a splash of color, enough to give the healthy glow we are all looking for. It feels weightless and silky on my lips, and fits into even my smaller clutch bags.”
No word on how long these beauties will be on sale, so don’t delay in shopping your fave!
