FAQs

What is Shade Slick and what finish does it provide?

Shade Slick is MERIT’s tinted lip oil that gives a wash of moisturizing color with a high-shine finish, now also available in a new pearlescent Sheen.

What’s the difference between The Sheens, The Classics, and The Gelées?

The Sheens are cushioned, lightly pigmented, pearlescent, and wear longer with zero stickiness. The Classics have the most pigment with buildable, glossy color. The Gelées are the sheerest with pH-reactive pigments that create a subtle stain and a bare-lip look.

Is Shade Slick sticky or heavy?

The Sheens glide on smooth and wear comfortably with zero stickiness, and all finishes feel lightweight and glossy.

What ingredients make Shade Slick moisturizing?

Key hydrators include plant-derived squalane and quinoa seed oil, while The Classics also feature rosehip oil, shea butter, grapeseed oil, and jojoba oil.

How should I wear it with lip liner?

Pair it with MERIT’s Signature Lip Liner—line first, then finish with Shade Slick Sheen for an easy everyday lip duo.

Is it clean, vegan, and cruelty-free?

Yes. It’s Clean at MERIT and EU-compliant, vegan, and Leaping Bunny–certified.

How long does it wear?

The Sheens have an updated formula for more cushion and longer wear while remaining comfortable throughout the day.

Do you offer free shipping and returns?

Yes. See our Shipping & Orders page for details.
