Chipotle brings back viral avocado-inspired lip stain: Here's how to buy it
Back by popular demand, Chipotle is re-launching its best-selling makeup product – yes, you read that right – the "Lipotle" lip stain.
The metallic, avocado-inspired lip stain goes on green and then is to be wiped off to reveal a budge-proof, and obviously eat-proof, rose color underneath. The lip stain is available exclusively on the Wonderskin website, starting Tuesday, July 15.
Chipotle and Wonderskin, a cosmetics brand, first launched its "Lipotle" Wonder Blading Peel & Reveal Lip Stain Kit in July 2024 for National Avocado Day. The stain was Wonderskin's fastest to ever sell out, according to a news release, and the company received more than 10,000 emails and comments requesting a re-stock.
Here's what to know about "Lipotle" and how to get your hands on the viral shade.
Here's why: 'Sephora kids' trend prompts bill to ban kids from purchasing makeup (again).
What is the 'Lipotle' lip stain?
"Lipotle" is a part of Wonderskin's masque collection, lip stains that are to be applied and then peeled off to reveal a shade underneath.
Customers should apply "Lipotle" and watch a metallic green foil tint dry on their lips within about 30 seconds. The tint can be left on for up to 60 seconds for a darker shade.
Wonderskin then recommends spraying the foil with its Wonder Blading Activator to "lock in the pigment." This activator is sold with the "Lipotle" Wonder Blading Peel & Reveal Lip Stain Kit.
Next, peel off the foil to reveal a nude-rose shade underneath that Wonderskin says lasts up to 10 hours.
How much is the 'Lipotle' lip stain?
The "Lipotle" lip stain is available for $29.
Where to buy 'Lipotle' lip stain
The "Lipotle" lip stain is available exclusively on the Wonderskin website, starting Tuesday, July 15.
When is National Avocado Day 2025?
National Avocado Day is Thursday, July 31.

What Is the 'Gen Z Stare'? All About the Term Sparking Generational Debate
If you've ever interacted with a Gen Z worker in the service industry, you may have experienced what other generations have deemed as the 'Gen Z Stare.' Millennials and Gen X users on TikTok have pointed out a peculiar look they say members of Gen Z have given them, and use situations in the hospitality space as examples. 'People in the service industry of a certain age don't even say hello to you — they stare at you,' TikTok user @thedisneygirliesaid in a recent video, which has amassed more than 480,000 views. The creator then cites a first-hand account of an interaction she had at Chipotle, where a younger employee left her feeling as if she was inconveniencing them or being rude. 'I'm sick of the argument of, 'They don't get paid enough to be nice,'' she said. "Yeah but every single job description in the world, especially customer facing, the very first descriptor is, 'Greet customers.'" 'This generation is wild," she added. However, there are TikTokers combatting this narrative by sharing the "why" behind the "Gen Z stare." User @madylamb posted a video acting out an exchange between waitstaff and a customer, who wanted a strawberry banana smoothie without the banana, while creator @worley_cd acted out a similar scene, with a customer who wanted a ham and provolone cheese sandwich but was allergic to provolone. Gen Z TikTok user Efe, aka @thisisjenae, shared a video where she critiques older customers' conversations with Gen Z workers. The video has now amassed over over 3 million likes. Efe tells that the "Gen Z stare" exists, but examples provided by older generations don't tell the most accurate depiction. She says that the actual 'Gen Z stare' may derive from the environment in which the generation grew up in. 'A lot of Gen Z was stunted with communication. Generally, they believe they don't have to talk to people,' Efe explains. She points out that this negativity toward Gen Z mannerisms is a cycle, citing that Millennials were once at the center of scrutiny for their work ethic from more senior generations. 'It was kind of strange to me. It just felt a little, 'Let's pick at Gen Z'-type of thing,' Efe says when asked about her initial reactions to the older generations' comments. Despite the negativity, Efe says that the response from her video is a positive one. 'Instead of everyone just taking the constant nasty attitudes that are thrown at them, I'm glad everyone is speaking up and having a place where they can feel unified and speak about it,' she adds. If there's one thing that Efe wants older generations to take note of, it's to not assume Gen Z workers are "any more incompetent than someone who's older" just because of age. 'I want them to turn around and see that they might be doing the exact same thing that was done to them,' she continues. This article was originally published on Solve the daily Crossword

After raising over $3M, popular VC-backed beauty brand Ami Colé is shuttering
Diarrha N'Diaye-Mbaye, one of the first among the small number of Black women to raise more than $1 million in venture capital, announced on Thursday the closure of her award-winning beauty startup Ami Colé. Ami Colé creates makeup for those with darker skin colors, as those consumers often struggle to find makeup that matches their skin tone. It launched in 2021, sold through Sephora, and became a celeb favorite among the likes of singer Kelly Rowland and actress Mindy Kaling. But the 4-year-old company will now officially shutter in September. N'Diaye-Mbaye wrote about her decision to close the company in 'The Cut,' saying that 'after looking at every option, it became clear that continuing in this current market wasn't sustainable.' Her company had raised more than $3 million in venture capital, according to PitchBook, with backing from the likes of G9 Ventures, Greycroft, and angel investors Hannah Bronfman and 'The Cut' editor-in-chief Lindsay Peoples Wagner. Ami Colé did not immediately respond to our request for comment. Like many Black startups launched after the murder of George Floyd, Ami Colé rode the waves of excitement from investors and corporations looking to pour money into backing more products and initiatives that touched upon diversity, equity, and inclusion. N'Diaye-Mbaye hinted that one of the problems was tension between her and investors' expectations of a consumer retail business. While she had loyal customers, her fast nationwide growth meant pressure from investors. But her brand struggled to compete with bigger companies with deeper pockets, despite pouring a sizable chunk of its budget into marketing. Ami Colé faced the ups and downs of production versus sales in retail: one week selling straight through, and another not moving a unit. 'Instead of focusing on the healthy, sustainable future of the company and meeting the needs of our loyal fan base, I rode a temperamental wave of appraising investors — some of whom seemed to have an attitude toward equity and 'betting big on inclusivity' that changed its tune a lot, to my ears, from what it sounded like in 2020,' she wrote. The strain comes as venture funding to Black founders has hit a multi-year low in a political climate that has disavowed anything perceived as DEI. N'Diaye-Mbaye ended her announcement by saying that though this chapter in her life was ending, her work was not done. 'I still believe in beauty — at every level — and I'm looking forward to discovering what comes next,' she said.
