Introducing the Confession Ultra-Slim High Intensity Lipstick Red 0 - Refill… boasting a patent-pending, vegan alternative to carmine which for centuries has been the beauty industry’s go-to-red pigment (produced from crushed beetles). Granting this beautiful lipstick its colour-pop hue, the name symbolises the Hourglass promise to animal welfare – zero animal by-products, zero animals harmed.
“Carmine is everywhere, from food and alcohol to paint.” says Hourglass’ founder, Carisa. “Creating a vegan alternative felt like an impossible feat at times, but it was such an important step – we need to move away from treating living beings as expendable.” We couldn’t agree more, and this refill for your beautiful, scarlet bullet adorned with a beetle delivers the same creamy, saturated payoff that you’ve come to know and love. Long-wearing with a satin finish, the ultra-slim stick permits precise application — allowing you to easily define and fill the lip with vivid, traffic-stopping pigment that will never smudge or feather.
