How to Achieve the Perfect Cherry Glazed Lip

Move over latte makeup—this season, it’s all about cherry glazed lips. Think juicy, high-shine lips that look like you’ve just bitten into a ripe cherry (without the sticky mess). It’s playful, polished, and surprisingly wearable for both day and night.

The best part? You don’t need a TikTok tutorial scrollathon to master the look. With just a few Laura Mercier icons, you can nail the cherry glaze in minutes.


Step 1: Start with a Hydrating Base

Glazed lips only work if your pout is smooth and plump. Gently exfoliate with a lip scrub, then layer on a nourishing balm to lock in hydration. 

Step 2: The Power of Cherry Pigment

Skip the basic clear gloss and go for color payoff. Our Caviar Hydra=Crème Lipstick delivers the juicy red pigment you want plus the hydration your lips need. The creamy, satin-gloss finish instantly gives that lacquered, just-bitten cherry vibe—no lip oil required.

Shade suggestion: Opt for a vibrant red like 571 Rue de Rivoli that makes your lips the star of your makeup look.

Step 3: Add Dimension with Lip Liner

To avoid the dreaded “gloss bleed,” line your lips with a complementary red liner. Not only does this give your lips shape and structure, but it also keeps your cherry glaze looking fresh and polished all day. Pair with the Laura Mercier Caviar Perfecting Lip Liner in Red Velvet for a flawless match.

Step 4: Glaze It Up

For extra shine, dab a touch of Lip Glacé in a clear or sheer pink (360 Cherry Blossom) over the center of your lips after applying Caviar Hydra Crème Lipstick. This creates dimension and gives that irresistible, glassy cherry finish that catches the light in all the right ways.
