If there's one stand-out star of this year's Love Island, it's Faye Winter's brown lipstick. Love it or loathe it, Faye's commitment to her brown lipstick has had the whole internet talking, and it turns out that the trending lip look has translated into sales too.
Yes, it's time to make room in your makeup bag because chocolate-toned lipsticks and cocoa-coloured lip liners are officially back in. In fact, COLLECTION Cosmetics have reported a whopping 300% spike in sales of their Cappuccino Lip Definer since Faye's signature look hit our screens.
The perfect brown lipliner for re-creating Faye's iconic Love Island look, sales of COLLECTION's Cappuccino Lip Definer have boomed since the trend hit our screens.
The easy-to-use retractable pencil is not only an absolute bargain (perfect for trying out a trend) it’s ultra long-lasting thanks to its creamy texture that will see you through from day to night.
But, if you're a proper fan of the look, Faye has now revealed the lipliner she actually uses. (We'd been trying to guess for ages!) Speaking to Grazia this week, she told us her secret formula is MAC lip pencil in Cork , which she ‘offgrades’ with MAC Myth, a pale pink lipstick. And she doesn't care whether you're a fan of the look or not. ‘I know the lipstick is a big thing,’ she laughed. ‘But I like my brown lipstick and I’m going to continue to wear it!’

And there, after months of speculation, Faye has confirmed she uses a lipliner to create her look, which she then tops up with a paler pink shade, MAC Myth - leaving a satin, lighter finish.
Described as like satin on skin, Nars Audacious Lipstick promises full, unadulterated colour in just one single stroke. The soft-matte finish means it's comfortable to wear, but don't be fooled into thinking that it doesn't have staying power. This award-winning formula with brick-red tones promises not to bleed or feather, while keeping lips hydrated and soft.
If liquid lipsticks aren't your thing, there are plenty of classic formulas out there.

Velvety smooth and even in application, it's great for a daytime look and can even be jazzed up with a gloss to see you through until the early hours.

A dark, warm brown with a hint of red, this lippy will suit those with fair skin, bringing depth and a pop of colour to any makeup routine. Matte finishes don't seem to be going anywhere and so this suede result is totally on trend. Velvety, non-drying and super light, you won't even remember you're wearing it - except for all the compliments you'll be receiving, obviously.
