2000s Celebrity Lipstick and Glosses List
Glossy lips, brown liners, frosted finishes, and nude shades were major parts of 2000s makeup culture. Celebrity beauty websites and forums regularly discussed the lipstick and lip gloss products worn by actresses, models, and singers.
Here is an early internet celebrity lip products list that circulated online during the early to mid 2000s and was still being referenced in 2008. The entries preserve the claims made in the original list rather than independently verified product records.
Models and Their Lip Products
Runway beauty at the turn of the millennium carried over the 1990s supermodel lip, including brown or nude shades, defined liner, and polished gloss. Allure’s review of Y2K makeup describes how the neutral supermodel look developed into the frosted finishes and high-shine gloss associated with the early 2000s.
| Celebrity | Lip products |
|---|---|
| Tyra Banks | Cover Girl Lip Slicks |
| Yasmin le Bon | Arcancil “Bamboo”, MAC “Spice” lipliner, MAC “Chili” and “Paramount” lipsticks |
| Carla Bruni | Guerlain lipsticks |
| Naomi Campbell | Bobbi Brown lipgloss |
| Helena Christensen | The Body Shop Colourings lip liner No. 1 |
| Cindy Crawford | Revlon “Revlon Red” and “Pure Red” |
| Karen Elson | NARS “Heat Wave” lipstick |
| Linda Evangelista | Prescriptives lipgloss, Bobbi Brown lipliners “Rose” and “Natural”, MAC “Spice” lipliner |
| Elle MacPherson | Max Factor lipgloss, Clinique “Black Honey” Almost Lipstick |
| Kate Moss | Prescriptives lipgloss |
| Claudia Schiffer | Revlon “Toast of New York” lipstick and ColorStay lip liner in “Nude” |
| Stephanie Seymour | Clinique “Black Honey” Almost Lipstick |
| Alek Wek | Clear lipgloss |
The model list shows considerable crossover between prestige cosmetics and widely available brands. MAC “Spice” appears repeatedly, while Clinique “Black Honey”, Revlon reds, and clear gloss demonstrate that recognisable model lips were not always created with obscure professional products.
Actresses and Early 2000s Lipstick Trends
Actresses were associated with a broader range of finishes, from dark berry and red shades to pale pink glosses and neutral liners. Clinique’s history of Black Honey explains how the sheer blackberry shade developed into a long-running beauty favourite, helping to account for its presence in celebrity product lists from the period.
| Celebrity | Lip products |
|---|---|
| Calista Flockhart | Clinique “Black Honey” Almost Lipstick |
| Jennifer Aniston | BeneFit “Mocha Frosting”, MAC and Stila products |
| Drew Barrymore | Chanel “Vamp”, dark lipsticks, Stila lip shines |
| Courteney Cox | MAC “Spice” lip liner, Senna “Eau de Nil” lipstick |
| Cameron Diaz | Bobbi Brown “Pale Pink” Lip Color and “Petal” Lip Gloss |
| Salma Hayek | Kiehl’s “Blackberry”, Revlon “Stone” |
| Nicole Kidman | Philip Douglas “Nordic Rose” and Christian Dior “Fig” |
| Heather Locklear | Senna “Moonstone” gloss, Bobbi Brown “Sand Pink Shimmer” |
| Gwyneth Paltrow | Stila “Robin” and BeneFit BeneTint |
| Julia Roberts | Stila “Kate” and “American Beauty” lipstick |
| Sharon Stone | MAC “Vino”, “Media”, “Viva Glam”, Guerlain “Rouge Diabolique”, Chanel “Sienna” lip liner |
| Liv Tyler | NARS “Harlow” gloss |
| Kate Winslet | Body Shop Cranberry, MAC “Spice” liner, MAC “Luxe” lipstick |
The entries reflect a transitional period rather than one uniform 2000s look. Deep shades such as Chanel “Vamp” appeared alongside softer pinks, lip stains, and glossy neutrals, while MAC, Stila, and Bobbi Brown products appeared across several reported routines.
Singers and 2000s Lip Gloss Brands
Pop and R&B performers often used lip colour as a recognisable part of their public image. Red lipstick, deep liner, and glossy finishes dominate the surviving product claims, while several entries involve MAC Viva Glam shades. MAC’s official Viva Glam timeline documents the campaign’s shades and celebrity collaborations across different eras.
| Celebrity | Lip products |
|---|---|
| Madonna | MAC “Russian Red”, Trucco “Blood Red”, Vincent Longo “Cherry” lipstain |
| Gwen Stefani | Urban Decay “Gash” and MAC “Viva Glam” |
| Mary J. Blige | MAC “Viva Glam II” and “Spice” lipliner |
| Emma Bunton | Rimmel lipstick in pastel colours |
| Geri Halliwell | MAC and Prescriptives products |
| Jewel | Clinique Glosswear in “Honeybee” |
| Queen Latifah | MAC “Chestnut” lipliner and Bobbi Brown lip glosses |
| Vanessa Williams | Trucco “Sienna Suede” lipliner |
The singer list is smaller but more concentrated around statement products. MAC appears in five of the eight entries, while Madonna and Gwen Stefani are associated with strong reds and Mary J. Blige and Queen Latifah with deeper liners and gloss combinations.
