We just tested Clinique's ‘nude honey' almost lipstick on three women
Clinique's best-selling black honey almost lipstick generated a lot of hype when it first made the rounds on TikTok in 2021. Four years since the formula became a cult classic, the brand has now dropped a new shade – and it's perfect for summer. For those that don't know, Clinique's almost lipstick collection previously spanned two shades, the original black honey (£24.50, and a lighter pink honey hue (£24.50, As of today, 17 June, the range has officially expanded to include a third product: Clinique's nude honey almost lipstick (£24.50, Our IndyBest testers got their hands on the new formula, so we tried it, wondering whether the rusty-red take on our everyday lip could possibly compare. Scroll on for our opinions from a trio of beauty experts. How we tested With the new shade landing on our desks just hours before its product launch, we pulled together IndyBest's experienced testers to swiftly put the product through its paces. We applied the nude honey lipstick to clean, unlined lips and paid attention to the difference in shade when compared to the original black honey, as well as between our three complexions. We noted how moisturising (or drying), pigmented and easy to apply the lipstick was, and each decided whether it justified its £24.50 price tag. Here's how we got on. Why you can trust IndyBest reviews Lucy Smith is The Independent 's resident beauty writer and has not only covered black honey products previously, but is currently undergoing testing for the best lipsticks of all time. Daisy Lester is the team's senior shopping writer, having written for IndyBest since 2020. She's written about everything from lip oils to lip liners and is well-versed in the best formulas for easy application and long-lasting colour. Lastly, Sabrina Sahota joined our expert testers recently as consumer editor, but she has tested plenty of trending beauty products for other publishers, including the best red lipsticks.

MAC Tapped Supermodel Alex Consani and Rapper JT to Make Their Very Own Lip Kits
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." In 2025, it's not enough to just throw on a lipstick or lip gloss and call it a day anymore. Now, the real signature is your lip combo—the lip liner, lipstick, and gloss pairing that makes you feel like the most confident. Maybe it enhances your natural lips, or it plumps up your lip shape. With that, everyone's go-to lip combo is pretty unique to themselves. As a brand that's known for its lip products, MAC gets it—which is why they've tapped their famous friends JT and Alex Consani to box their lip combos so everyone can wear 'em too. Both the "OKAY" rapper and supermodel have been hella busy this summer, so it makes sense that they'd need a lip look on standby they can grab whenever they need. And now it's easy to recreate the look on yourself too.$52.00 at at Of course, JT's vibe is Y2K Barbie doll-coded: deep-brown Lip Pencil in Chestnut, cool-toned pink MACximal Silky Matte Lipstick in Lipstick Snob, and O.G. Lip Glass in Clear to make your lips ultra shiny. She'd wear her lip combo everywhere, like on a first date, she says, but she also wore it performing at NYC Pride. "I have always been a MAC girl," JT tells Cosmo. But if you wanted to grab one product instead of JT's whole kit, her non-negotiable will always be lip liner (specifically, the Chestnut shade from MAC). "Since I was young, I would explore shades that matched my skin tone just out of love and curiosity, and Chestnut Lip Liner always made the most sense for me," she says. JT says that her outfit is always dependent on where she's headed, especially when it comes to a night out. But her lip combo is always at the base of every look. "A nice glam routine makes me feel pretty and confident," she says. What can we say? She's a glam girl, through and through. But before performing, she's still gotta get in the zone. "My before-stage ritual is to pray, take a deep breath, and be silly with my team," she says. Alex prefers an "effortless" look that's "still pulled together," she tells Cosmo. "Warm nudes work for my skin tone and feel easy," she says, hence why her lip combo contains Lip Pencil in Whirl, MACximal Silky Matte Lipstick in Warm Teddy, and Squirt Plumping Gloss Stick in Clear. Although the Gen-Z model's vibe is usually casual and classic model off-duty, she's not into the matte look. "I usually go for a gloss—it just makes everything look fresher." Her makeup routine isn't strict, though, especially when it comes to nights out (have you seen her TikTok? She's known to let loose when she's not on every designer's runway). "Makeup at night is where I have fun. Skin, a little structure, some highlight, and something sharp like a liner or lip—it's more about the vibe," she says. Overall, beauty feels simple to her right now. "It's just a way to feel good and try things. I don't feel pressure around it anymore. Some days I want to look done, some days I don't—I don't overthink it." Which is why she doesn't really care for trends that tell you if there's a right or wrong way to look. "I'm not interested in rules or anything overly curated. It's boring." Although, that didn't stop her from doing all the things in the past. "I got a blowout and did a full face for a date that lasted under an hour," she says. (Dating is hell for supermodels, too—you heard it here first.) "It didn't matter, though—I looked good." Where are JT and Alex wearing their lip combos right now? Both are busy working. "This summer is about building community within my fans—my Juvies," says JT, who is currently working on creative direction for her next project. "I'm also very excited about performing in London," she adds. And Alex is currently in Paris at Couture Week. Don't worry, though, she still has time to have fun, and she finally settled the "song of the summer" debate for us. "'Ran out' by JT—it just hits."
