Claudia Winkleman is famous for her iconic look, and if you want to copy her signature makeup, you can now pick up her all-time favourite nude lipstick for less
Aside from her iconic haircut and chic fashion choices, Claudia Winkleman is distinguished by a unique makeup style. Featuring heavy black eyeliner (the Victoria Beckham Beauty Satin Kajal Eyeliner), Claudia can often be seen sporting her signature look, which is crowned by a ‘concealer-like’ lip.
A makeup trend that was synonymous with 2016, Claudia Winkleman herself dubbed the look “Tippex lips”, as she revealed her favourite lipstick to create her go-to full-face. Claudia revealed she swears by MAC’s MACximal Satin Lipstick in the shade Fleshpot, a lippy that was once discontinued but which was revived last year.

Talking about her favourite lipstick, Claudia once said she “would marry a MAC Fleshpot if I could” while talking to Good Housekeeping. Describing her signature style, Claudia said: “I’ve had the same makeup for the past 900 years – ie black eyeliner and Tippex – and I always look like a strange drunk pirate.”
Touted as a buildable coverage lipstick with a glossy, satin finish, the MACximal lipstick is said to glide smoothly across the lips, depositing a cushiony coat of colour.
Described as being enriched with hydrating castor seed oil, the lipstick promises to nourish and visibly plump the lips with moisture, keeping them soft and supple. Arriving in the brand’s iconic sleek black casing, the bullet-tipped lipstick offers a precision application with maximum comfort and control.
Available in a wide range of shades, it’s the Fleshpot shade that’s claimed Claudia’s heart. And right now, shoppers keen to pick up Claudia’s beauty essential can do so for less, as the £25 lippy has plummeted to £20 thanks to Lookfantastic’s current sale.
If you prefer to shop elsewhere, the MACximal lipstick is available for the same discounted price at Debenhams, for £21.25 at Boots, or for its full price of £25 at Sephora.
And it isn’t just Claudia who adores this lipstick, as plenty of 5-star reviews pour in on Lookfantastic’s website. One reviewer raves: “Love this, my favourite lipstick. Stays on well, nice finish and great colours.”
Another buyer beams: “Long-wearing, moisturising and beautiful colour. Beautiful results and impact.”
A third shopper shares: “The best nude ever! Creamy and always a repeat purchase.”
And more accolades come from this customer who gushes: “Fleshoot shade is the perfect nude shade that goes with so many of my lip liners.”
Though one buyer does knock off one star, writing: “Really beautiful formula and finish. Comfortable to wear. Not super long-lasting, but non-matte lipsticks don’t tend to be.”
