tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Balm Gloss — Strawberry, Vegan High-Shine Hydrating Lip Butter

tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Balm Gloss in Strawberry is a vegan, high-shine lip butter that combines buildable color with long-lasting hydration and skin-nourishing actives.

This click-up balm-gloss hybrid delivers glossy color and cushiony moisture while keeping ingredients clean and cruelty-free. Formulated with maracuja oil, a superfruit complex and a Cushion Comfort Complex, the product aims to temporarily smooth the look of lip lines and hydrate for up to 12 hours in user-testing. The Strawberry shade gives a fresh, wearable tint while maintaining a comfortable, balm-like finish.

How does this balm-gloss keep lips hydrated all day?

The formula layers lightweight emollients and maracuja oil to attract and seal in moisture without feeling heavy. Clinical testing with a small panel showed extended hydration for many users, and the cushiony texture minimizes the look of dryness.

• Maracuja oil delivers moisture and helps condition lips
• Emollient base creates a glossy, non-sticky barrier
• Cushion Comfort Complex smooths the appearance of lip lines

What kind of coverage and finish can I expect from Strawberry?

Strawberry provides buildable color from a hint of tint to a more defined glossy shade, depending on how many layers you apply. The finish is mirror-like shine with a balm’s cushion, making it suitable for natural or glossier makeup looks.

• Sheer to medium, buildable pigment
• High-shine, reflective finish that reads like a gloss
• Balm-like comfort; avoids sticky or tacky feel

Which ingredients support lip health and are any common irritants excluded?

The formula combines a 10+ superfruit complex and vitamin E to help nourish and protect the lip surface; maracuja is a key hydrating oil. tarte keeps the formula free of parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, triclosan, SLS and gluten to reduce the chance of irritation for sensitive users.

• Antioxidant-rich superfruit complex for surface nourishment
• Vitamin E for protective antioxidant support
• Free from parabens, phthalates, mineral oil and SLS

How is the packaging designed to be user-friendly?

The click-up tube dispenses the balm-gloss cleanly and keeps the formula protected when closed, so there’s less mess compared with open pots. The twist mechanism makes it simple to control product amount and apply on the go.

• Click-up mechanism prevents contamination and leaking
• Portable full-size format for purse or travel
• Easy, no-mess application directly from the tube

Who is this for: Ideal for anyone seeking a vegan, cruelty-free lip product that blends skincare benefits with makeup payoff—people who want a hydrating daily balm that can also add buildable color and shine. It suits sensitive-skin users avoiding common irritants, commuters who need low-maintenance packaging, and beauty shoppers looking for a glossy, nourishing finish without heavy fragrances or sticky textures.
