The Huda Beauty Lip Contour Stain in Cherry Red is a versatile and long-wearing product designed for anyone seeking a vibrant, natural matte lip. It excels at providing intense, no-bleed color with the precision of a liner and the comfort of a stain, thanks to its dual-sided felt tip and argan oil infusion. However, as with any long-wear product, proper removal is key to maintaining lip health.

The Huda Beauty Lip Contour Stain in Cherry Red delivers on its promises of vibrant color and long wear. Its dual-sided felt tip is a standout feature, allowing for exceptional control. You can use the fine point to meticulously line your lips, correcting any asymmetries and creating a perfect outline. Then, pivot to the broader side to quickly fill in your lips with rich, opaque color.
Prepare Your Lips: For best results, ensure your lips are clean and smooth. Gently exfoliate if needed, and apply a light lip balm a few minutes prior, blotting off any excess.
Define: Using the fine tip, start by outlining your Cupid's bow and then trace your natural lip line from the corners towards the center.
Fill: Use the broader side of the felt tip to fill in your lips, starting from the center and working outwards.
Layer for Intensity: For a more intense or deeper Cherry Red, allow the first layer to dry for 30-60 seconds before applying a second coat.
Blot (Optional): If you desire an even more natural, blotted look, gently blot with a tissue after application.
This stain performs exceptionally well for all-day wear, making it ideal for busy days, special events, or when you simply don't want to worry about reapplying your lip color. It holds up well through eating and drinking, maintaining its natural matte finish. The argan oil infusion genuinely contributes to comfort, preventing the typical dryness associated with many long-wear matte formulas, leaving lips feeling soft and hydrated.
Uncap the product and ensure the felt tip is saturated with product. If the color flow seems low, gently shake the pen or store it tip-down for a few minutes to encourage saturation.
This lip stain is highly versatile and compatible with various makeup looks. It can be worn alone for a bold, statement lip or paired with a clear gloss over the top for added shine without compromising the stain's longevity underneath. It complements both natural and dramatic eye looks.
Cap Tightly: Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the felt tip from drying out and to maintain the product's longevity.
Storage: Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can affect the formula.
Avoid Contamination: Do not share the product with others to prevent bacterial contamination.
Clean the Tip: If the tip becomes clogged with lip balm or other products, gently wipe it with a clean, dry tissue. Avoid using water or harsh cleansers on the felt tip.
