A Salute in Red: In North America and Europe during World War II, red lipstick became a symbol ofΒ patriotism, courage, and ultimately, victory over oppression. Iconic makeup brands at the time created their own unique red shades; their own versions of "patriotism in a handbag."
Our shade A Salute in Red is a faithful reproduction of a WWII patriotic lipstick from our own historical collection.

Our lipstick is crafted with nourishing shea butter and avocado oil, offering soothing relief and deep hydration for your lips. Free from parabens and enriched with vitamin E, it leaves lips feeling irresistibly soft, moisturized, and blissfully comfortable.

I think the product is good overall. I love the vintage packaging, its so glamourous. However, after ordering it, I now realize it contains BHT, which in some cases is restricted due to it possibly being an unclean chemical used in cosmetics. I know Canada and the US's laws are different in terms of clean beauty standards, and nothing has happened to me from using this product. But I am still weary.
Hi Taylor, thank you so much for your thoughtful review, and Iβm so glad you love the lipstick and its vintage packaging! π
I completely understand your concern about seeing BHT in the ingredient list. There is a lot of conflicting information online about cosmetic ingredients, particularly around the term βclean beauty.β BHT is an antioxidant commonly used in very small amounts in cosmetic formulations to help protect oils from oxidation and maintain product stability, and our products are formulated in accordance with Canadian and U.S. cosmetic safety requirements.
We always want our ingredient lists to be transparent so customers can make the choices that feel right for them, and I really appreciate you taking the time to share your concern. Thank you again for supporting Starlight Vintage Cosmetics! β¨
I felt like I stepped back in time when I opened my package from Starlight. I actually had to send pictures of the lipstick and thank you note to my husband while he was at work. We were both very impressed with the quality and the customer service. The lipstick case is beautiful and has a weight that feels luxurious. The color of the lipstick is classic and lasts all day. It only needs minor touching up after meals. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
Absolutely gorgeous lipstick and case. Best lipstick and case vintage replica. The crystal on the case is so pretty.
I got "Salute in Red" for a WWII reenactment. It stayed on nicely. The case is beautiful and looks vintage.
From the beautiful case to the luxurious formula, this is a gorgeous lipstick! Itβs the perfect retro red. And I LOVE that it is refillable, too! Worth every penny! You wonβt ever regret buying this lipstick. Now I have to try more colors!
