Clinique's Black Honey Almost Lipstick has become a focal point of online discussion and purchasing activity due to its availability at a discounted price during Amazon's Prime Day sale. The lipstick, a long-standing cult favorite, is currently offered at $17.50, marking a 30% reduction.
The universally flattering hue is described as leaving a sheer, sensuous berry tint that brightens the face. Its popularity extends beyond everyday consumers, with notable figures such as Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore, and Reese Witherspoon having worn the shade over the years. It was also featured as Liv Tyler's lip color in "The Lord of the Rings" and recently appeared in the Amazon series "Off Campus."
Page Six editors have expressed significant enthusiasm for the product, with multiple staffers noting their personal use and intent to purchase backups during the sale. This internal endorsement highlights the lipstick's enduring appeal.
Globally, seven tubes of Black Honey are reported to sell every minute. Complementary shades, Nude Honey and Pink Honey, are also part of the Prime Day promotions. Brand ambassador Emilia Clarke has previously shared her positive experience with the lipstick on Instagram, describing it as "amazing" and a "dewy, blush of dreams" that is buildable in application.
Amazon Prime Day runs from Tuesday, June 23, at 3 a.m. ET through Saturday, June 27, at 3 a.m. ET. Participation requires a Prime membership, though a 30-day free trial is available. This year's event includes new incentives such as sweepstakes and opportunities to win gift cards, alongside exclusive travel deals and a broader range of discounted products. Prime Day is typically seen as an opportune time to purchase electronics, beauty and skincare items, accessories, and other best-selling products at reduced prices. Amazon is also expected to hold a "Prime Big Deal Days" sale in the fall of 2026.
