6 Celebrity Lip Looks To Master This Season

From Hailey Bieber to Bella Hadid, we decode their trending lip looks and how to achieve their pretty pouts

There was one enduring lip look of 2025 – a strong lip line, followed by a soft finish lipstick and a final slick of gloss. But for 2026, the devil is in the details – each A-list tastemaker has interpreted the look with their own signature tweaks, and a secret arsenal of products. From subtle outlined nudes to high-shine terracotta rouge, we round up the best lip looks to inspire you for the season ahead.

Georgina Rodríguez’s Ultra-Polished Glamour

Georgina Rodriguez’s Lip Cheat Duo by Charlotte Tilbury is her go-to. A fan of overlining, she begins by using the darker shade to define and outline her lips, creating a bold, structured shape. Next, she applies the lighter tone in the center of the lips to add dimension and a subtle highlight. She then layers The Super Nudes matte lipstick by Charlotte Tilbury for a smooth, even base. To finish, she tops it off with Charlotte Tilbury’s Big Lip Plumpgasm, giving her lips that perfect plump, luscious finish every time.

Hailey Bieber’s Glazed Combo

Hailey Bieber’s current go-to lip combo is all about effortless, natural-looking fullness. She starts with the two sided Peptide Lip Shape by Rhode, which is a perfect everyday choice for on-the-go contouring, that not only shapes and plumps the lips but also comes with a built-in silicone smudger. Hailey uses the smudger to blend and soften the lines, whilst also tidying up the edges for a flawless finish. To add a hint of warmth and dimension, she gently dabs the Rhode Pocket Blush, in the shade Piggy, over the lips, creating a soft, seamless tint that enhances the natural lip shape.

Kylie Jenner’s Perfectly Contoured Nude Lips

Kylie Jenner’s lip routine is all about creating that signature plump, soft, and perfectly defined pout. She starts with the Precision Pout Lip Liner in the shade Cinnamon by Kylie Cosmetics to outline and subtly shape her lips. Next, she layers her Plumping Powder Matte Lip in Nude Mood giving her lips a smooth, full-bodied finish. To top it off, she adds Kylie Cosmetics’ Tinted Butter Balm in the shade Love That 4 U, which provides a hint of colour while keeping lips nourished and soft, creating a natural, effortless vibe.

Selena Gomez’s Rosy Nude Lips

Selena Gomez’s lip combo is all about soft definition with a luminous finish. She starts by shaping her lips with the Rare Beauty Kind Words Matte Lip Liner in the shade Wise, a rich, yummy brown shade as Selena herself describes it, perfect for adding warmth and subtle contour. She then layers the Rare Beauty Positive Light Luminizing Lip Gloss in Blaze to bring shine and dimension to the lips. To finish, she adds a touch of the same luminising gloss in Glimmer right in the centre, giving a hint of pink and a glowy lip effect.
