Starbucks' S’mores Sip Kit Celebrates the S’mores Frappuccino
Laura McQuarrie — May 1, 2019 — Fashion
Now that the S’mores Frappuccino has officially returned to Starbucks, the brand is helping fans celebrate their love of the beverage with a set of lip products it has dubbed the S’mores Sip Kit. The four-piece collection of liquid lipstick shades includes Chocolicious Bliss, the shimmery clear Marshmallow Glow, Graham Glam and Campfire Spark. While the deep-toned Chocolicious Bliss can be worn as a long-wearing base, the other shades have the potential to be used as light and glossy toppers.
Naturally, each of the lip products in the S’mores Sip Kit smells like the matching Starbucks drinks they take inspiration from. For a limited time, Starbucks fans have the chance to win the special lip kit, as well as other fun prizes in the S’mores Life Collection.
