Salma Hayek, 58, uses this Clinique lipstick to get her perfect pout
There's just something about a good swipe of lipstick that can take your day from zero to 100. Whether it's a vibrant red (à la Taylor Swift), deep berry or a classic nude — and Salma Hayek agrees. In an interview with The New York Times, the award-winning actress and all-around Hollywood icon divulged her go-to beauty favorites. The secret behind those lips? "I love the lip colors and textures of the Clinique Pop line," she shared. What the what? We just learned that another celebrity also swears by this lipstick with an iconic Clinique Black Honey topcoat. Are we looking at a Clinique lippie takeover? We certainly hope so. Let us count the ways in which the Clinique Pop colors and formula are truly divine.
The creamy Clinique lipstick (with the cutest packaging) is specifically formulated to last for up to eight hours without drying out the lips — yes, even if you wear the matte finish. How? Well, it's designed with a built-in primer for smooth and strong application. It also happens to be free of any fragrances, parabens and phthalates.
It's not just Salma who's a fan! Thousands of shoppers have given it a perfect five-star review, from Clinique loyalists to total newbies.
"My favorite lipstick," shared one Clinique fan in their five-star review. "This lipstick goes on smoothly, lasts a long time and does not dry out my lips. My favorite shades are Love Pop for a bit of color and Bare Pop which is the perfect nude lip shade against my fair skin. For a little shine, I pair it with a Clinique gloss. I keep both colors in my desk and my purse."
Another Clinique loyalist wrote that it's "better than" their usual Clinique Dramatically Different lipstick: "I decided to give this one a try for comparison's sake and am so glad I did! This lipstick lasts such a long time. I do reapply after eating. I get just as many compliments as I did with the other lipstick but I definitely feel I get more for my money and am now a loyal follower."
"The lipstick is great," raved another happy customer. "The tint is very cute and it's moisturizing. It doesn't make my lips look chapped at all."
"This is a quality lipstick," explained this final five-star reviewer. "The packaging is so cute and it goes on very well." However, they did add: " It's not as long-lasting as some of my others, but it's decent. It also has nice pigment and just feels very silky and nice when you apply. I'm a big fan."
Looking for another Clinique lippie to round out your collection? The Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey is a no-brainer. The universally flattering lipstick/balm/gloss combo has been a celeb favorite since the '90s (think icons like Drew Barrymore, Courtney Cox and Julia Roberts). One coat adds a little oomph to your natural lip color, or you can swipe on a few coats for a richer berry tint.
And if you're thinking, "Clinique... wasn't their mascaras and shadow sticks great, too?" we've got your back.

Trace Cyrus Blasts 'Evil' Dad Billy Ray Cyrus For Skipping Grandmother's Funeral
Trace Cyrus, the son of country musician Billy Ray Cyrus, continues to hint at family discord even as his father appears to be happily in the throes of a new relationship. On Tuesday, Trace Cyrus shared an Instagram post in which he accused the two-time Grammy winner of skipping his maternal grandmother's funeral. 'This man is so hungry for fame it's pathetic,' he wrote alongside a photo of Billy Ray Cyrus. 'He really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammie's funeral while he was still married to my mom. Even after his daughter got him a 60k private jet like he demanded then he still didn't come after the plane was paid for.' Addressing his dad directly, Trace Cyrus added: 'You're the lamest man to ever walk the planet earth. Honestly embarrassed to ever have considered you my idol. The best thing to come from your downfall is it made me go into beast mode. I refuse to be a washed up, delusional, evil person when I'm old like you.' A representative for Billy Ray Cyrus declined comment on Trace Cyrus' remarks. In addition to Trace Cyrus, Billy Ray Cyrus shares four more children ― including daughters Miley and Noah Cyrus ― with ex-wife Tish Cyrus. Tish Cyrus' mother, Loretta Finley, died in 2020 at age 85, according to USA Today. Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus divorced in 2022 after 28 years of marriage. Trace Cyrus, who is also a musician, has hinted at an estrangement from his father on numerous occasions. In January, he urged Billy Ray Cyrus to seek help via an open letter on Instagram in response to his dad's shaky performance at President Donald Trump's inaugural festivities that month. 'We are all hanging on to memories of the man we once knew & hoping for the day he returns,' he wrote at the time. 'You're not healthy Dad & everyone is noticing it.' Trace Cyrus' post comes just days after Miley Cyrus shrugged off rumors of a strained relationship with her dad while appearing on The New York Times' 'The Interview' podcast. 'As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents — because my mom really loved my dad for her whole life,' she explained. 'And I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is, obviously, really hard.' These days, Billy Ray Cyrus appears to be enjoying his time with girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley nearly two months after hard-launching their romance on social media. On Tuesday, the musician acknowledged Hurley's 60th birthday with a heartfelt post on Instagram, writing: 'Happy birthday to the love of my life.'

Ananda Lewis dead at 52
Ananda Lewis has died aged 52. The former MTV VJ and talk show host revealed in 2020 that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Her sister Lakshmi announced the news of her death in a Facebook post. "She's free, and in His heavenly arms," she wrote, alongside a series of broken heart emojis and a black and white portrait of Lewis. "Lord, rest her soul." Lewis became well known in 1997 when she was hired as one of MTV's VJs, hosting shows such as Total Request Live and Hot Zone. In 1999, The New York Times dubbed her "the hip-hop generation's reigning It Girl." She left MTV in 2001 to host her own talk show, The Ananda Lewis Show. When Lewis shared in 2020 that she had been diagnosed with stage three breast cancer, she revealed that she had not been going for regular mammograms because of a fear of radiation. In October 2024, Lewis further revealed that she had gone against medical advice and did not have a double mastectomy after she was diagnosed. In an essay published in Essence in January, Lewis emphasised that "prevention is the real cure" for cancer, and urged women to pay attention to their bodies. "We're not meant to stay here forever. We come to this life, have experiences, and then we go," she wrote. Lewis is survived by her teenage son, Langston, whom she shares with Harry Smith, brother of Will Smith.
