This cream lipstick is Merit’s latest launch, but I’m already projecting it to be a hit. The texture feels like a hydrating balm, but with a beautiful veil of color. My two favorite shades (pictured above) are Slip, a neutral beige, and Tiger, a warm cocoa-red. Neither feels super lipstick-y (i.e., you can still drink and kiss people without it getting everywhere), and best of all, doesn’t require a mirror to apply. The shade range is pretty limited, which I actually like because each one feels very unique. Again, the packaging is a total 11/10, and one I can’t wait to brandish in public.
