The formula
A luxury lipstick that sets to a rich, velvet-matte finish with full, saturated color in one stroke. A cushioned base of squalane and conditioning emollients keeps the matte soft and comfortable rather than dry or flat, and a resin-and-polymer film holds the color for long, transfer-resistant wear. It is formulated with the humectant sodium hyaluronate for a soft, conditioned feel.1
Grace is a bright rosy pink.
Finish: velvet matte · Coverage: full, opaque color · Long-wearing
Paraben-free. Cruelty-free. Made in North America.
1 Conditioning, softness, and comfort describe the feel of the emollient base and humectant, not a measured hydration claim about this finished product.

What does squalane do in this lipstick?
The hydrogenated, oxidatively stable form of squalene, a lipid naturally present in human sebum, Squalane functions as a lightweight biomimetic emollient at the lip surface in this matte formula. It delivers conditioning without occlusive heaviness in a context where the mattifying agents would otherwise compromise lip comfort during extended wear.
