About Twinkle Apothecary

The Stain

An herbal-infused, oil-based, roll-on lip & cheek tint.

Alkanet root infused sunflower oil leaves your lips and cheeks with a natural-yet-buildable berry flush.

The stain is good for every skin type, but it only comes in one sheer color. Deeper skin tones will see a brighter color payoff with my shimmer balms in ruby or garnet. 

Ingredients

organic sunflower oil, wildcrafted alkanet root, non-gmo tocopherol oil (vitamin E,) lavender essential oil, cinnamon essential oil  

sunflower oil: non-pore clogging, soaks into skin quickly without leaving a greasy sheen

alkanet root: provides a safe, botanical-based tint 

essential oils: a single drop of cinnamon boosts circulation to enhance your glow, lavender balances the earthy scent of alkanet root

Instructions

Roll onto lips and cheeks, blending with fingertips or a sponge. Add more for a brighter color or keep it light. It's beautiful alone or layered with other lip products. 

Idea: Layer it over your favorite red lip liner for a bold, juicy flush - or over/under your favorite shimmer balm or shimmer powder for a boost of color.

Product FAQs

Will this stain my skin?

Actually, no. The stain is sheer, buildable, and easy to blend. (It's just a fun name.) However, it can stain certain countertop surfaces and clothing, so proceed with caution. 

Can you make this is in another color? 

No. In fact, the color of the Alkanet root changes slightly from lot to lot (nature... how dare she?!) so you may receive a bottle that's more or less bright than what's pictured. That said, these are always crafted in small batches to achieve the brightest color payoff possible.  

Can you make it without the cinnamon essential oil?

No, these are made by the batch, not by the bottle. There is one drop of cinnamon in each bottle, which creates a very subtle warming sensation (and fantastic scent) that should be safe for most people. Try the shimmer balm in Ruby for a similar but cinnamon free tint.

The perfect lip color I didn’t know I needed

I’d been eyeing this lip stain for years now but kept putting off buying it because I didn’t really need another lip color right now. Then I received it as a free sample and was sold. I love everything about this. The color is gorgeous and buildable. The texture feels amazing on my lips and keeps them hydrated even in winter

Yay, I love hearing that - free samples for the win! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, so glad you're enjoying it!

So good

Amazing!

I am new to twinkle apothecary and ordered some samples of items. This is one sample I purchased which I intend to get a full-size version of (actually, I intend to get full-size versions of them all!)
But, this stuff is amazing! I am always looking for a quick and easy lip color that isn't "too much", isn't sticky, and will last awhile. After trying a multitude of lip stains, long-lasting matte glosses, and even chapsticks, I can finally say I've found my lip color. This is perfect for a fair-skinned person such as myself.

Thank you and I love all of your products so far!

Omg, yay! That’s so great to hear. I’m so glad you’re loving the stain and everything else. Thank you!

Magic in a Bottle

For someone who doesn't wear makeup, this stain gives the perfect blush color. It is part of my everyday morning routine. It gives me the perfect amount of color to make me look like I'm fully awake and ready to tackle the day!
