Known for her minimal makeup hacks—and most recently, her chic take on this summer's French bob—Sofia Richie Grainge is now blessing us with a fresh wave of beauty inspiration. In her latest Vogue Beauty Secrets interview, the influencer dishes on her full routine—from her go-to Vanicream Cleansing Bar to the One/Size On Til Dawn Setting Spray she uses to top off her looks. Alongside splurge-worthy picks from Chanel and Lancôme, the 15-minute tutorial also features plenty of affordable favorites, including a $12 Maybelline mascara and Sacheu's TikTok-viral peel-off lip liner in shade Noohde.
Grainge says she was influenced to try the popular K-Beauty lip stain after seeing Billie Eilish wear it on stage. 'I was at her concert, and my thought was: 'How did her lip stay on all night?!' Then when I saw her 'get ready with me' video, I was like purchase, genius, obsessed.' (FYI, Alix Earle and Doja Cat are also fans.) In the tutorial, Grainge uses the doefoot applicator to casually line her lips, then later peels off the deeply tinted film to reveal a natural-looking flush. For a glossy finish, she layers on Merit's Shade Slick Tinted Lip Oil in the sheer brown shade Mapleton.
According to Sacheu, the wash of color is designed to last all day—no reapplication needed. It's also formulated with hyaluronic acid and vitamin E to keep lips hydrated. (For the best results, the brand recommends applying on clean, exfoliated lips and letting it set for up to 20 minutes.) In addition to Grainge's go-to nude hue, the lip liner comes in nine other gorgeous shades, including a vibrant red, pink, and deep brown.
