Some celebrity beauty recs come and go like limited-edition palettes — but when Hilary Duff says she’s been using a lip gloss for decades, we’re all ears (and lips).
The actress and pop culture staple revealed that she’s a longtime fan of Lancôme’s Juicy Tubes in the shade Hallucinations on Instagram, calling the golden nude shimmer she used on A Cinderella Story “luxurious” and praising its staying power: “It’s thick so it lasts longer between reapplying. Some people may not like the thickness, but it’s perfect for me!”

And listen, she’s not alone. The early-2000s icon status of Juicy Tubes is no joke — but what’s surprising is just how many shoppers are still obsessed with them for the exact same reasons. “Lancome Juicy Tubes are my primary lip cover,” one reviewer gushed. “I mean, it stays on forever, keeps my lips moist, and they last forever… I get compliments on my lip gloss all the time when I wear Juicy Tubes.”

The nostalgic packaging and candy-slick finish may be straight from your AIM era, but the formula holds its own in 2025. That signature shine isn’t just for looks — the Y2K lip gloss also works to lock in moisture, which fans say leaves their lips feeling plump and hydrated without constant reapplication. The Hallucinations shade in particular brings a sheer, golden glow that flatters everyone without washing you out or veering into full-glitter territory.
And yes, we’ve heard the sticky-gloss slander. But as one fan put it, the right amount of stick is what keeps this gloss clinging to lips — not your coffee cup. “The stickiness is the perfect balance,” the shopper wrote. “The color is subtle and natural.”
Another review cuts right to the chase: “I love this lip gloss! It’s pretty and feels great on!” Short, sweet, and exactly the kind of five-star energy Hilary’s beauty routine is known for.
So if you’re craving a nostalgic throwback with real staying power (and celebrity approval to boot), Juicy Tubes in Hallucinations might just be your forever gloss, too.
