We love a subtle pop of color from tinted lip balms, but there’s something about a darker, glossier tinted lip that just feels right for the season. Of course, not everyone is ready to commit to a fully lined, dramatic ’90s vampy look — or spend $25 on a single tube like Clinique’s Black Honey Almost Lipstick Tinted Balm. That’s why shoppers are raving about Catrice Care in Colours Lip Balm in Wild Rebel, a $10 alternative they say is a close match to Black Honey.
With “a nice balmy feel and a beautiful color,” this lip balm proves you don’t have to splurge for a product that delivers. Infused with shea butter and cocoa butter, it pampers your lips while adding that flattering, just-bitten tint. “Super smooth and creamy application…hydrates,” a happy shopper shared.

Customers are also loving how long the color actually lasts with this tinted lip balm. Another impressed customer shared, “I bought these to moisten my lips with a touch of color. I was amazed that even after it feels like it’s ‘rubbed off,’ the color is still there.” That kind of staying power, coupled with a formula that’s vegan, cruelty-free, and free from gluten, parabens, and microplastic particles, has quickly made it a beauty fan favorite.
If you’re looking for an “absolutely beautiful” lip balm that delivers moisture, comfort, and buildable color without the splurge, the Catrice Care in Color Lip Balm in Wild Rebel might just be your new go-to. At $6, why not try a shade or two of the tinted lip balm for yourself?
