The girlies want to know: how does the Olympic gold medallist keep her pout ultra-shiny and plump all while executing complicated stunts and tumbles? We have the answers below
When Team USA gymnast Sunisa Lee, or Suni Lee as she is more popularly known, appeared at the Paris Olympics 2024 for her turn on the mat, all eyes were on her... lips. Just how does the 21-year-old Olympic gold medallist keep her lips looking so shiny and plump while executing some of the most complicated gymnastics moves? With her clean, sophisticated and mat-ready make-up look, the young athlete set social media ablaze as beauty junkies everywhere wanted to know how to recreate the same look.
Lee’s viral lip look at the Paris Olympics 2024 features a combination of specific products that have captured attention.
Well, we have our answers now as Lee took to her own TikTok page to reveal the simple steps to create her signature glossy pout.
First, she uses Make Up For Ever’s Artist Color Pencil in the shades Anywhere Caffeine and Wherever Walnut to line and fill her lips. To add a glossy finish, she applies the Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Hydrating Peptide Lip Treatment. Additionally, she sometimes uses the Peptide Lip Treatment in Salty Tan by Rhode, the popular cosmetics brand founded by Hailey Bieber.
As both Rhode and Ole Henriksen are not readily available in Singapore, here are some alternatives that you can always opt for to plump up your lips—no fillers needed.
Clarins Lip Oil Balm
Combining the benefits of a lip oil and gloss, this product offers hydration and a plumping effect, similar to the glossy finish of Rhode's Peptide Lip Treatment.
