Marasca, batch one
A cherry, worn.
Cherry Lacquer is one shade of gloss in one small glass bottle. Keep scrolling and it comes to you.
MARASCA, Cherry Lacquer Gloss
It moves like oil.
Cold pressed castor seed oil carries the shine, so it falls in a thread instead of a bead and spreads in one pass.
It sets like lacquer.
Forty seconds after the last step it stops moving and holds a mirror. No film, no tack, nothing to peel off later.
Then it waits in a pocket.
We fill 1,200 bottles at a time and then stop. Leave an address below and we will hold your place in the queue.

Read the formulaFour things and nothing else.
The ingredient list is short on purpose. Everything in the bottle is there to hold shine without holding onto your hair.
Castor and shea
Cold pressed castor seed oil carries the shine. Shea butter keeps the edge soft so the gloss never sets crisp on the lip line.
Cherry, actually
The flavour is a distillate of marasca cherry rather than a sweetener, so it reads tart and slightly bitter instead of sugary.
No plumping heat
No capsicum, no menthol, no tingle. Comfort was the whole brief, and a gloss you can forget you are wearing is the result.
Clean glass
Vegan, no added fragrance beyond the distillate, filled in small batches and dated on the base of every bottle.
The ritual
Three steps, forty seconds.
-
Blot
Start dry. Press your lips once with a tissue so there is nothing left for the gloss to slide on.
5 seconds -
Press
One pass of the cushion from the centre outward, then press your lips together once and let go. Resist a second coat.
15 seconds -
Seal
Trace the outer edge with the tip of the wand and leave it alone. It sets to a mirror while you finish getting ready.
