Product Insights & Style Tips

NYX Professional Makeup Smushy Matte Lip Balm in Sugar Smush-Clear gives a plush, blurred lip with a matte finish that feels modern and effortless. The weightless texture virtually dissolves on contact, leaving a soft, even wash of clarity rather than shine. Rich with mochi rice powder and sugar ceramides, it aims for a smooth, comfortable feel across the lip line while keeping the look clean and understated.

On the lips, it hugs without heaviness and builds from a barely-there tint to a more defined matte veil as you layer. The clear shade acts as a versatile base and comfort layer, letting your natural lip tone show through while wiping out uneven texture with a gentle blur. It sits close to the skin, making it easy to slip under or over other lip colors and to wear from day into night without drying or cracking.

In the NYX line, this Smushy lip balm fits the brand's quick-draw, trend-forward approach to lip texture, plush blur, no fuss, accessible price point. Sugar Smush-Clear offers a transparent canvas that pairs with bold eye looks or on days when you want lips that simply look polished and bare-minimum chic.

Style Check

Aesthetics: 8/10

Striking yet understated, the Smushy Matte Lip Balm in Sugar Smush-Clear reads as a modern accessory rather than a traditional balm. The plush, blurred finish offers tactile depth while remaining transparently clean. Packaging is sleek and photogenic, making it easy to style in editorial close-ups or minimal, high-contrast looks.

Craftsmanship: 7/10

Craftsmanship reads as deliberate but accessible. The texture is weightless with a soft matte payoff that builds without caking, aided by mochi rice powder and sugar ceramides for a plush feel on lips. The tube and wand appear well finished, with clean edges and reliable snap, though the clear shade may reveal subtle fingerprints.

Affordability: $$$$

Affordability balances between accessible prestige and curated novelty. The value feels justified given the blur effect, buildable payoff, and skin nourishing ingredients, yet the price remains approachable for a mid tier beauty launch. The design and packaging elevate the experience beyond everyday lip balms, suggesting a potential to pair with both casual and editorial wardrobes.

Beauty Trends & Makeup Tips

Lacquered Lips Are Having A High-Shine Moment

Blurred skin and softly diffused lips continue to dominate beauty feeds, but summer is making a case for something far more high-impact: lacquered lips. The finish is glossy and impossible to overlook, giving even the most pared-back makeup look a sharper edge. Unlike softer lip trends that blur into the rest of the face, lacquered lips are meant to catch the light. The mirror-like shine feels almost graphic and that’s exactly what makes it so compelling. Best of all, the effect doesn’t require a complicated routine or a makeup artist’s skill set. With the right prep, pigment, and gloss, you can recreate the look at home. Ahead, the pro-approved steps for mastering lacquered lips.

The 90s Zigzag Headband Is Back In Rotation

From the yoga mom ponytail to stacked barrettes, hair accessories had a serious moment this summer. Now another nostalgic favorite is making its return – and it might be the lowest-effort trend of them all. The zigzag headband is back, with Hailey Bieber leading the revival as only she can. She’s been spotted wearing the throwback accessory in her latest Instagram photo dumps and her Miu Miu campaign, which at this point is all the confirmation anyone needs. The classic acetate or resin headband, defined by its signature zigzag teeth, grips the crown and pushes hair effortlessly back into place. On hot, humid days when the last thing you want is hair sticking to your face, it’s less of a trend and more of a solution. Ahead, how to wear it without looking like you stepped straight out of a 90s yearbook.

The In-Flight Skincare Routine That Saves Your Skin Every Time

Summer is one of the busiest travel seasons, and if you still have flights to catch before it wraps up, the question of what to pack in your personal bag inevitably comes up. In-flight skincare content is everywhere right now, with creators sharing elaborate multi-step routines that look great on camera but raise a practical question: is that actually a good idea at 30,000 feet? The short answer is no. Planes are notorious for circulating bacteria, which means slathering on multiple products mid-flight is doing more harm than good. That said, doing absolutely nothing isn’t the answer either. The dry cabin air is genuinely brutal on your skin, and a pared-down approach using the right products can make a real difference in how you look and feel when you land. Ahead, the only in-flight skincare products worth packing—and exactly how to use them.
