We’re living in an era of bold, defined lips. While liners and lip kits have become popular again, the most interesting way to create a bold pout is with a peel-off lip stain. The trend—which uses pigmented peel-off products instead of a traditional pencil liner to stain the lips—has taken social media by storm. According to recent data by Spate, peel-off lip stains are the leading trend in the lip stain category. Lip stains are nothing new, but using them in this way certainly is. On TikTok and other social media platforms, creators are showcasing the benefits of lining with stains and praising the results.
Longevity is always a hot topic when it comes to lip products. From lipsticks to tinted balms, we’re all searching for a transfer-proof or fade-resistant formula. That said, the rise of peel-off-lip stains is unsurprising. Not only do they offer increased longevity, but they’re also easy to use and minimize common issues like smudging, bleeding and feathering.
Spate’s report shows that the lip stain category had a 149.4 percent year-over-year growth thanks to TikTok’s peel-off trend. On the app, the trend has 83.1 percent share potential, outranking its Google search numbers.
