It's safe to say 2019 was the year of The Lip Bar. We came hard and gave THE MOST LAUNCHES EVER! Ya'll weren't even ready! We launched a whole flagship store, a game-changing Fast Face system, bomb-ass lip liners, and so much more. We're so grateful for all the love and support our babes have shown us throughout this year. But guess what!? It's still only the beginning for us and we're shaking more shit up in 2020, but until then, let's take a look back at everything we did in 2019. Cause we really did that!
We found our perfect nudes
We launched a campaign that proved there's a nude for EVERYONE. We felt the struggle and know there's never just one perfect nude. We included 16 nude shades and created a quiz to help everyone find their perfect match.
We launched our very first flagship store
We opened up our very first flagship store in February and the love we have received is unreal! It's become a must-have Detroit destination and so many of you have traveled from all over to witness all its glory!
These Cities showed the most love
Ya'll are the realist!
We paid homage to a few black women during Black History Month
Our Black History Month campaign is one of our favorite campaigns to date. Harriette Tubman, Angela Davis, and Rosa Parks all paved the way, so to honor these three women was an honor itself.
These Countries ordered the most
Lip Bar love all over the world!
We launched Minimalist and took it all the way back
Our Minimalist gloss instantly gave us so many 90's feels, so we already knew we had to take it way, way back. Slicked edges, clear gloss, and big-ass hoops... you know the vibes.
We sold hella lippies
Like, A LOT!
OPRAH said we had one of the best long-lasting lipsticks
Oprah basically made our whole lives and said we had one of the best liquid mattes in the game.
Our babes showed all the way out
The support is unreal! Thank you so much babes!
We launched our spiciest shade yet-- Hot Mama
Hot Mama was easily one of our best campaign launches of 2019. And we couldn't dare launch a shade named Hot Mama without honoring a few gorgeous and hardworking mamas.
Ya'll loved these products the most
This list is just too good!
And these too...
Our new launches that everyone couldn't get enough of!
We finally launched lip liners
For year's we got asked, "when will you launch lip liners?" And this year we finally launched some of the best liners in the game. Infused with jojoba oil, super smooth, and smudge-proof!
These babes tagged us the most!
There's nothing we love more than seeing our babes tag us in their Lip Bar looks. These babes support so hard.
We got a little glown up and launched our first non-lip product
Our first product outside of lip! Fresh Glow was honestly the highlight of the summer and still continues to have everyone looking glown AF. And the support we received was insane. I mean, THE Jackie Aina has said she loves Fresh Glow on multiple occasions. What other review do you need!?
We changed the game and created makeup for people with shit to do
By far, one of our proudest moments! We launched a whole makeup system. Fast Face was a labor of love and we desperately wanted to change the state of the beauty industry. Makeup had gotten so complicated, and we're so glad we launched a system that changed that. Still unreal when we see everyone in their full face of The Lip Bar. Thank you so much for the love babes. On to 2020!

A hug congratulations on your success. I first saw the pitch on Shark Tsnk and thought Mr. O’Leary was overly critical. So happy to see that you pressed on. I love your lipstick and have shared your link. Having written all this, I have one concern/question: is it necessary to use profanity on your website? It’s a bit offensive and I hesitate sharing your link because of this.
Also, please do not publish.
Thank you Anita
So proud of your continued success! Looking forward to seeing what you bring into 2020 and beyond !!!
Congratulations on a stellar year! You give me hope that one no didn’t stop your mission! That was only a delay in the greater plan. Continued blessings and success!
Y’all changed the game! I am 41 years old and only had my face done twice in my life! I never was a girl to wear makeup because it was just too much of a discouraging task with disappointing results. (Looked like a clown)…..chileeee, when fast face hit and the tutorials were flawless and easy, that was it for me! My face is beat regularly and I love it! Y’all the real MVP’s..
