Lipotle, a burrito-proof lip stain kit from Chipotle and Wonderskin, is beauty's latest novel collaboration. The launch follows a 2021 collab between the burrito chain and e.l.f. Cosmetics.
The collaborations make sense for beauty brands seeking to tap into teen/Gen Z shoppers. In its spring 2024 survey, Piper Sandler reported that 9% of teens cited Chipotle as their favorite restaurant, ranking the chain #3 overall.
Lipotle's Guac-proof Stain Launch
The Lipotle Wonder Blading Lip Stain Kit retails for $29 (free shipping), $40 CAD (plus $5.99 shipping) and £28 (plus £3.99 shipping). Free shipping is available in the U.S. only.
Lipotle will be available on wonderskin.com iand eu.wonderskin.com for fans in the U.S., U.K. and Canadian markets starting Tuesday, July 30, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. PDT.
The Lipotle lip stain is "guac-proof" and formulated in a peelable green colorway; when peeled off, the masque will reveal a new nude-pink lip stain payoff.
How it works:
- Users can apply the limited-edition Lipotle Lip Stain Masque like a lip gloss and let the green, foil-inspired masque set for 30 seconds for a softer color or wait 60 seconds for a bolder color.
- Users then spray the brand's Wonder Blading Activator onto the masque to seal in the pigments so they do not fade or smudge for up to 10 hours.
- Finally, users peel the lip masque and reveal the nude rose color of Lipotle.
Behind the Chipotle x Wonderskin Collaboration
"With the popularity of mukbangs [eating and talking influencer videos] on social media, we noticed our fans are in need of a smudge-proof lip stain to enjoy their Chipotle on-the-go," said Stephanie Perdue, vice president of brand marketing, Chipotle. "We teamed up with Wonderskin to create the most iconic guac and foil-inspired lip stain ahead of National Avocado Day."
"We are thrilled to team up with Chipotle for our very first brand collaboration, unveiling a limited-edition shade of our viral Wonder Blading Lip Stain," says Marina Kalenchyts, brand director of Wonderskin.
