The Rare Beauty Nice & Neutral Lip Gloss and Liner Duo is a limited-edition, $25 set with a full-size Stay Vulnerable Glossy Lip Balm in Nearly Neutral and a mini Kind Words Matte Lip Liner in Patient, a shade sold only in this kit. It launched in January 2024 on rarebeauty.com and Sephora.
What Is Included in the Nice & Neutral Duo?
- Stay Vulnerable Glossy Lip Balm in Nearly Neutral: a touch of plush color with non-sticky shine that stays hydrated. Retailer listings describe the color as a soft rose brown.
- Kind Words Matte Lip Liner in Patient: a creamy, waterproof, smudge-resistant liner. Retailer listings describe the shade as a soft neutral pink.
Together they are meant to make a plump, healthy-looking pout in a coordinated neutral shade.
Who Is It For?
Buy it if you like an everyday neutral lip and want a matching liner and gloss.
Skip it if you want a full-size liner: the liner in this kit is a mini, and the exclusive shade isn't sold separately.
Our take: because Patient is set-exclusive, the kit is the only way to get that liner shade, which matters if you already own the balm.
Is It Still Available?
Retailer listings, including Space NK and Kohl's, surfaced in search results for the duo, which suggests it reached several stores beyond Rare Beauty. Because it was limited edition, availability may be limited or sold out, and we couldn't verify stock on rarebeauty.com.
What Is Confirmed, and What Is Not?
Confirmed: the contents, $25 launch price, set-exclusive liner and retailers at launch come from Rare Beauty's announcement. The shade color descriptions come from retailer listings.
Not confirmed: current price and stock, and any difference in size between listings.
September 21, 2026 update: this post is a record of the January 2024 launch. We did not verify current stock.
