Product details

A Ready To Wear Water Lipstick in 02 Wet Rose on a pale pink table beside a pink camellia blossom and petals

Water tint + glow

A moist, watery lipstick with squalane that tints in clear, buildable layers and never feels sticky.

BBIA’s Water Lipstick glides on smoothly and leaves a fresh, light glow and a layer of moisture on the lips. One swipe gives a sheer wash of colour, and a few more build it up without clumping. The newest shade, 05 Wet Plum, came from BBIA’s Cool Nude collaboration with Dustmoth Stography for cool-toned skin.

How to use

Swipe, then build

  1. 1

    Twist up a little

    The bullet is soft and moist, so raise only what you need.

  2. 2

    Swipe once

    One layer gives a clear, sheer water tint with a fresh glow.

  3. 3

    Build

    Layer two to four times for deeper colour. It stays clear and doesn’t clump.

Juicy colour, sheer or bold

A moist, glowy tint you can wear as a soft wash of colour or build up to your taste.

Good to know

  • 01 Wet Mandarine is a soft coral orange, 02 Wet Rose a soft neutral rose, 03 Wet Camellia a clear cool pink, 04 Wet Apricot a light sheer apricot and 05 Wet Plum a toned-down plum berry.
  • The surface of the bullet can look uneven because of its high moisture content. BBIA says this is normal, not a defect.
  • Contains fragrance.
