With her wardrobe as crystal-clear proof, Kim Ji Won’s Queen of Tears persona, Hong Hae-in, is a certified designer enthusiast. However, her penchant for luxury labels doesn’t stop at her closet—this also extends to her beauty arsenal, as proven in an episode of the series.
The Exact Designer Lipstick Used by Kim Ji Won in “Queen of Tears”
In the second episode of the K-drama Queen of Tears, Hae-in’s preferred lipstick of choice had a brief appearance moments after she applied it during the scene. When the character dropped the container on the ground, its insignia on the bottom was recognizable to many beauty fans.


With its gold-toned symbol that sports the distinguishable “H,” Hae-in’s lipstick comes from the Rouge Hermès collection of the French luxury label. The lipstick collection introduced Hermès’ 16th métier, Beauty, which included 24 shades in 10 matte or 14 satin finishes, all with a white mulberry extract. Even the case, designed by Hermès’ Pierre Hardy, is a feat of its own, with lacquered, brushed, and polished metal assembled by hand and made to be refillable.

From the looks of it, Hae-in is possibly sporting the collection’s satin iteration, which boasts a more refined, silky texture. On the brand’s official website, one piece comes with a price tag of $75 or approximately P4,300.
