Wicked red and pink lips are just an app away.
TikTok’s famous Wonderskin Wonder Blading Peel & Reveal lip color is unlike anything we’ve tried before, providing an all-day lip stain that can be achieved in seconds.
The package, which comes with Lip Masque, Lip Activator, and Liquid Blading Wipe Away Towel, claims that it will never transfer, fade, or soften as long as it remains waterproof. And get this: Since it’s a lip stain, you can say goodbye to lipstick-stained wine glasses and messy kisses.
To remove, all you need to do is wash with the cleanser of your choice.
but does it really work? For $29, we hope so, so New York Post trade writer and reporter Ruby McAuliffe and senior trade journalist and special projects coordinator Sophie Cannon put it to the ultimate test to find out.

Let’s cut to the chase. This lip stain is it’s.
I applied the lip tint in thick layers, making sure to apply it evenly, as this process is essential to the final result. I let the formula sit on my lips for about 45 seconds as it created a tingling, tight feeling on my lips. Then, it was time for the peeling action.
You can use your fingers, although the lip color will stain your fingertips. Therefore, I preferred to use the included Wipe Away towel. So, I sprayed my lips with Lip Activator and rubbed the product in small circles.
Once the product was off, a beautiful deep red color covered my lips. But would it transfer? That was the burning question.
First, I kissed the back of my hand and nothing was left behind. Next, I headed out for a pasta and wine dinner. There were no lip stains left on my wine glass and my lips were still a deep ruby hue after eating. Then I added a bit of lip balm and was sure the direct application would take some of the product off, but the color didn’t budge.
To say that I was impressed is an understatement. Her lip stain stayed on all night and she felt more than comfortable. He might as well not have been wearing anything! But best of all, it was kiss-proof and dinner-proof.”

First, I exfoliated my lips for best results. Since I needed all the help I could get with my chapped lips, I used the Wonderskin brand scrub bar. The 3-in-1 lip scrub ($19) comes in an easy-to-use pencil and exfoliates, moisturizes, then locks in that moisture to prep my lips for the main event: the lip stain.
I ordered a few different colors, but I wanted to start with the First Kiss shade, which is supposed to be a bright cranberry pink. The kit ($50) came with everything I needed, including lip color and activating spray, as well as a mini black towel to help wipe off excess spray and protect my chin.
After applying the shimmery bluish-purple formula to my lips three times and letting it dry for about 45 seconds each time, it was time to peel and reveal.
I also wanted to try out a few other shades in the line including Glamorous, Divine, and Adore, which is one of their lighter shades compared to the other full color shimmer shades. However, an advantage that can be a disadvantage (at least for now) is that removing the product is not that easy, especially if you applied it recently. I’ve found that the best way to remove the product is to use an oil-based makeup remover, my favorite being Farmacy’s Green Clean Cleansing Balm.
Warning: you may have sensitive lips for a while if you rub too hard like I did.
our final thoughts
This product is top notch.
The color is incredibly vivid and beautiful, the product is easy to apply once you get the hang of it, and the formula lasts on your lips.
See the slides below for the rest of the colors, noting the shades in the titles.
The tried and true First Kiss color, which looks so much brighter on my fair skin than it does in the photos.
The Glamorous shade, which is an intense and bright orange.
The Divine shade, which is a darker burgundy color.
The Adore shade, which is more of a light tint than a lipstick.
