What ingredients are in Antonym liquid lipsticks?
Antonym liquid lipsticks are formulated with a thoughtful blend of plant-based and certified organic ingredients that deliver rich color while caring for lips. Nourishing oils like organic castor seed and jojoba provide smooth glide and comfortable hydration, while shea butter helps soften and condition delicate lip skin.
Mineral pigments such as mica and iron oxides create vibrant, buildable color, while tapioca starch and kaolin help absorb excess moisture for a soft, long-wearing finish. The formula is further supported by antioxidant-rich vitamin E and sunflower seed oil to help keep lips feeling supple throughout the day.
True to Antonym’s clean beauty philosophy, these lipsticks are made without parabens, phthalates, sulfates, or synthetic dyes.
What materials are Antonym brushes made of?
Antonym brushes are made with sustainable bamboo handles and synthetic bristles.
The synthetic fibers are soft yet durable, cruelty-free, and designed to work well with both powder and cream products. The bamboo handles offer a lightweight and eco-conscious alternative to traditional wooden handles.
Do Antonym brushes work with both powder and cream products?
Yes. Antonym brushes are designed to perform beautifully with both powder and cream formulas. Their high-quality synthetic bristles pick up the perfect amount of product and blend it seamlessly into the skin, whether you're applying powder blush, liquid foundation, cream bronzer, or highlighter. The result is smooth, even coverage and effortless blending that helps your makeup look polished, natural, and beautifully diffused.
