First, there was Clinique’s Almost Lipstick in Black Honey, which has continued to resonate with beauty lovers since its 1971 debut, then Pink Honey joined the lineup in 2023, and in 2025, an all-new shade, Nude Honey, is joining the viral cosmetics collection.

Black Honey is beloved as a universally flattering shade with the perfect balance of blue, red and yellow pigments in a creamy, balmy base, and Nude Honey boasts the same nourishing properties but with a blend of warm and cool pigments. Lightweight Nude Honey swipes on to provide a sheer wash of color that adapts to natural lip tones.

This lip product, which sits somewhere between a lipstick, gloss and tinted balm, is loved for not just its comfortable formula and color, but also its forgiving nature because it can even be applied without a mirror.
