Spiced Makeup Collaborations

Rare Beauty and Tajin Partner to Create a Cheek & Lip Stain

Selena Gomez’s beauty brand, Rare Beauty, has teamed up with Tajín to launch a playful new makeup set inspired by the bold flavors of the popular Mexican seasoning and sauce.

Released on August 21, the limited-edition Cheek & Lip Set includes two products: the Soft Pinch Liquid Blush in “Chamoy,' a rich red-brown shade, and the Positive Light Luminizing Lip Gloss in 'Clásico,' a warm terracotta with golden shimmer. The gloss marks a brand-new addition to Rare Beauty’s lineup, joining its already expansive lineup of beauty solutions.

The collaboration takes inspiration from Tajín’s signature chili, lime, and sea salt blend, along with Chamoy sauce, a sweet, tangy, and spicy condiment rooted in Mexican tradition. Together, the set blends culturally relevant flavors with everyday beauty.
