Lenai Butterfield, founder of Lipstick Digest

Lenai Butterfield

beauty since birth

Lipstick Digest was born from a refusal — a refusal to shrink, to apologize, to treat beauty as something that needed to be earned or explained. This is a space for women who already know who they are.

The editor has been wearing red lipstick since before it was a statement. It was never a statement. It was just Tuesday. This publication is for every woman who understands that.

Your beauty is not up for debate. It never was.

— the editor, Lipstick Digest

What we stand for

three things we will not negotiate

01

unapologetic presence

You do not owe anyone a smaller version of yourself. Not in a boardroom. Not at a dinner table. Not anywhere.

02

beauty as language

What you put on your face is a sentence. We are here to help you say exactly what you mean — loudly, if necessary.

03

confidence without permission

You do not need a trend cycle to validate your choices. You never did. This publication exists to remind you of that.
