Princess Kate's Wimbledon Clarins lipstick is on sale in 'flattering shade' for summer

Princess Kate's beauty secrets are the envy of many, but at Wimbledon in 2019, the royal let fans in on her chosen lipstick as she was pictured touching her makeup up mid-match. The lipstick of choice was the Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector, and from some colour matching, it is likely the shade Rose Shimmer.

The lip balm/lipstick hybrid usually sells for £25, however, it is currently on sale at Fenwick for £22.50. Shoppers can also find it at Debenhams, but the colour Rose Shimmer is sold out. Those looking to shop directly through Clarins will find Rose Shimmer out of stock, but Apricot Shimmer is available.

This Clarins creation promises not only to moisturise, but also deliver a gentle hint of colour for enhanced lip beauty. It can be used for a quick refresh, standalone, or on top of a signature lipstick. The subtle wash of pink is a classic for Princess Kate, who often sticks to natural makeup looks, so it shouldn't feel too heavy or sticky during the warm weather.

It's not just Princess Kate that has chosen to wear the Clarins lipstick, thousands of beauty fans have left reviews raving over top results and non-stick gloss formula.

Satisfied users are praising it with one saying: "Not sticky, just very comfortable and hydrating but gives a lovely subtle enhancement in a super flattering shade."

The perfect pick for those going on holiday, a second customer wrote: "I just love everything about this product, the gloss is so creamy not sticky at all, the colours are subtle but pretty and the natural a great one to use in the summer on the beach."

While some consumers were happy with the sponge applicator for practicality purposes, others prefer a roller type, stating they 'don't care for the way the sponge applicator feels'.

The Laniege Tinted Lip Serum has been praised for its appliactor, an innovative circular design, and the product comes in six different colours. It's currently retailing for £19 at Sephora. At Boots, a luxury choice is the Lancome Butterglow Tinted Lip Balm.

Priced at £34, shoppers say 'I am on my third tube, it is so soft and keeps your lips hydrated'. It has also been noted that the balm 'provides so much colour all while feeling lightweight'.

Yet another dedicated Clarins fan added: "I've been using these for years now and I've had all the colours. I'm never without one in my bag. Keep your lips in great condition while giving a hint of colour with added shine."
