Our Favorite Lip Stains at Ulta Beauty
May 09, 2022Sometimes you’re just not in the mood for lipstick but want something with a little more oomph than a lip balm. That’s where lip stains come in. These formulas are typically long-wearing yet feel lightweight and can be pigmented or natural-looking, depending on the color you choose. Some of our favorite formulas, like a transfer-proof matte stain and a hyaluronic acid-infused tint, are available at Ulta Beauty, and we’re sharing them all right here.

Get the color payoff of a matte liquid lipstick without the drying finish. This stain is long-wearing and comes in a range of shades from bold and vibrant to neutral and subdued.
IT Cosmetics Pillow Lips Solid Serum Lip Gloss
These formulas contain collagen, hyaluronic acid and a tri-oil complex to nourish lips and leave behind a flattering flush.
