The Frosted Lip Revival: A Polished Take on Y2K Shine

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

Once a red carpet staple of the early 2000s, frosted lips are making a quiet yet confident return. As TikTok continues to fuel our fascination with Y2K beauty, the trend has resurfaced in softer, more wearable forms—pearlescent pinks, icy nudes, and subtle metallic finishes that catch the light without overpowering. Viral shades like L’Oréal’s Ballerina Shoes may have reignited the conversation, but today’s frosted lip is less about excess and more about polish. Ahead, we’re breaking down the modern products and techniques that make the nostalgic high-shine look feel current again.

The Art of Frosted Lips: Lipstick and Gloss Essentials

Frosted lips start with the right formula. Look for shades with subtle metallic or pearlescent shimmer that catch the light without overwhelming the look. If L’Oréal’s Ballerina Shoes is sold out, alternatives like Lancôme’s L’Absolu Rouge Cream Lipstick in Tendre Mirage offer a soft, luminous glow. At the same time, Isamaya’s Lips Metal Balm in Pantomime brings a bolder, editorial edge. For a more playful, customizable effect, layer a bright pink base with a shimmering gloss—Industrial Lip Serum by Isamaya is perfect for adding that modern, Y2K-inspired shine.

Frosted Lips Hack: A Quick DIY for Icy Shine

Need frosted lips, stat? Start with a bright pink lipstick for a Y2K-inspired base. Gently tap a silver metallic eyeshadow on top for buildable shimmer—HAUS LABS Bio-Radiant Gel-Powder Highlighter or Danessa Myricks Colorfix Pigment works beautifully. Finish with a clear gloss to lock in shine—Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme or Fenty Gloss Bomb adds glossy depth and dimension.

Tip: Use your fingertip for precise shimmer placement and a light hand with gloss to avoid overpowering the icy effect.

Toffee Makeup Looks for Winter: Warm, Cozy, and Radiant Beauty Tips

Published on by Lee1 Comment

This winter, the toffee makeup trend is all about warm, soft, and effortlessly radiant beauty. Think caramel, cinnamon, and buttery beige tones blended across eyes, cheeks, and lips for a look that feels cozy yet polished. It’s rich without being heavy—a subtle, glowing update to your winter routine that’s both approachable and luxe. Ahead, we break down exactly how to achieve this soft, sun-kissed toffee glow in one easy step-by-step routine.

Base
Start with a fresh, glowing canvas. After your skincare routine, apply a sheer tint—like Charlotte Tilbury’s Flawless Filter—for a natural, luminous finish. For more coverage, blend in a touch of your favorite foundation. Warm up the complexion with a bronzing serum, such as Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi or Westman Atelier Highlighter Drops, sweeping it lightly across cheekbones and temples for a soft, sun-kissed glow. Brighten under the eyes with a minimal concealer, then add a hint of cozy warmth to the cheeks with a brick-toned liquid blush, like Rhode’s Toasted Teddy. The result is a radiant, effortlessly wearable base that sets the perfect stage for toffee-inspired tones.

Eyes & Lips
Keep the eyes soft and inviting by sweeping the same brick-toned blush lightly across the lids for a monochromatic toffee effect. Gently tightline the upper lash line with a dark brown liner, leaving the lower lashes natural and clean. Curl lashes and apply a coat of mascara for subtle lift and definition. Mist a dewy setting spray to enhance radiance before moving to the lips. Outline with a nude-pink liner along your natural shape, then finish with a warm, tinted gloss to complete a soft, glowy toffee look that’s effortlessly chic.

Inside the K-Beauty Boom: How Viral Korean Skincare and Makeup Are Taking Over the U.S. Market

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

K-Beauty isn’t just a trend anymore—it’s officially a staple in American skincare routines. We’ve all scrolled past “glass skin” tutorials and double-cleansing hacks on TikTok, but now the products behind those viral looks are easier than ever to get your hands on. From Sephora shelves to Ulta’s new launches, Korean skincare has gone from cult favorite to full-blown beauty obsession in the U.S. And honestly? We’re not mad about it. If you’ve been curious about the hype (or just looking to upgrade your glow), these are the K-Beauty products and trends everyone is talking about right now.

Let’s be real—if you’re on TikTok or Instagram, you’ve definitely seen the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50 all over your feed.

If you’re chasing that dewy, glass-skin glow, their Glow Serum is just as dreamy and totally worth the hype.

But wait—K-Beauty is serving more than just Beauty of Joseon right now.

And if you’re ready to level up your routine, check out Hanyul’s toner pads—they’re a total game-changer and make this step feel like skincare luxury on repeat.

Okay, makeup lovers, let’s talk K-Beauty lip and cheek magic. Even Nordstrom Beauty is hopping on the trend, bringing us rom&nd, best known for its Glasting Color Gloss—a jelly lip that’s basically instant love at first swipe. And don’t sleep on their blush: it gives the prettiest, most natural wash of color. Pro tip: try the lavender shade—it’s huge in Asia but still rare here, so you’ll stand out in the best way.

Other viral K-Beauty picks making serious waves in the U.S.? TirTir’s Cushion Foundation is a flawless, buildable base, and the bouncy Fwee Pudding Pots are total multitaskers for cheeks and lips.

💋 Gloss, Reimagined: The Bluety Gloss Club Collection

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

There’s something about a good gloss. The way it catches light mid-laugh. The way it makes you feel just a little more alive, even when you’re running late. But this—The Gloss Club Collection by Bluety—isn’t just a swipe-and-go situation. It’s a whole moment. A vibe. A love letter to your lips, written in 6 ultra-glossy shades.

And yes—she delivers.

💄 The Gloss Club Breakdown:

  • Full Bundle Price: $120 (on sale from $138)
  • Includes: 6 glosses + Daydream Pouch (if you buy 2+)
  • Vegan, cruelty-free, no fluff. Just shine.
    Shop the Full Set

The Texture: Like Silk… But Juicier

Let’s start with the formula. Bluety’s HydraLock Gel Technology melts onto your lips like serum—no stickiness, no chalky fade, just full-bodied shine that wears like a dream. One coat gives you that soft-glam, I-woke-up-lucky finish. Two coats? Glossed goddess.

And the tube? Designed to lock in product, not leak in your bag. We love a thoughtful gloss.

The Vibe: Shades That Speak Mood First, Color Second

These aren’t just colors—they’re moods. Personalities. Tiny power statements with serious main character energy:

  • Cherry on Top – That glossy red that turns a plain tee into a moment. Bold but never try-hard.
  • Pretty in Pink – Playful, flirty, and a little nostalgic. Think: brunch selfies + cotton candy skies.
  • I Am Her – Deep berry. Power pose. Glass in hand. Enough said.
  • Wannabe Me – Buttery caramel brown, aka your kind of neutral. Smooth, grounded, easy.
  • Heaven on Earth – The “everyday” pink that never feels boring. Just soft, balanced, kiss-ready.
  • Let Me Be Clear – Crystal-clear with a hint of micro-shimmer that hits different in the light. Ethereal and editorial.

Every gloss is infused with intention—and 9ml of product (aka almost double what most brands give you).

The Ethics: Gloss With a Heart

No paid ads. No scripts. No fluff.
Bluety built this drop with community-first energy, and it shows.

Every product is:
✔️ Vegan
✔️ Cruelty-free
✔️ Leaping Bunny certified
✔️ Connected to a cause — purchases support The Pomi Project, helping rescue and care for animals in need.

It’s lip care with layers—inside and out.

💫 Why This One Hits Different

There are glosses you keep at the bottom of your bag… and then there are glosses you build your whole look around. This is the latter.

The Gloss Club gives you that moisture-meets-mood moment in every tube. It’s glam without the gatekeeping. Shine without the stick. Cute, clean, and just rebellious enough to feel like it’s yours first—before it goes viral.

✨ Ready to gloss up?

Whether you’re a Cherry on Top kind of girl or living your Let Me Be Clear era, this collection feels personal. Intentional. And unapologetically fun.
