One thing about Sofia Coppola is that she knows what the girls want, and she never fails to deliver. After all, nobody captures the true essence of girlhood in cinema like Coppola does, having directed films like Lost in Translation and The Virgin Suicides that hit a bit too close to home for her female audience.
Clearly, her understanding of our desires extends beyond her depictions on the big screen, because the acclaimed director has collaborated with multi-award-winning luxury skincare brand Augustinus Bader to create tinted versions of the cult-favourite Bader Lip Balm in three shades.

Available in a deep pink, a bright red coral, and burnt plum, the Tinted Balm nourishes, plumps, and hydrates the lips, leaving them softer, smoother, and visibly healthier with a sheer wash of colour that intensifies with each application.

“The Bader lip balm is one of my favourites so I was excited when the brand agreed to collaborate on a tinted version. Shade 1 is based on a favorite sheer deep pink lipstick I hoarded after it was discontinued, that’s easy and adds a brightening, subtle tint. Shade 2 is a red coral I like for summer or at the beach, and Shade 3 is a burnt, earthy plum. I hope you enjoy, wherever you might take them along with you!,” says Coppola.
