Olandria Carthen’s Go-To Lip Combo Costs Less Than $10

While we couldn’t be happier for Amaya “Papaya” Espinal and Bryan Arenales—the winners of Love Island USA 2025—we’d be remiss not to call due attention to our honorary couple of the year: “Nicolandria.” After winning over millions with their incredibly slow burn, will-they-won’t-they relationship that spanned the entirety of the season, Nic Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen have become somewhat of an immediate it-couple.

For beauty lovers, though, Carthen is more than just one half of our favorite couple. She’s a makeup icon, constantly pulling out the freshest, most long-lasting beats from the villa to the post-show interviews, and fans have been dying to know what her lip combo is since the moment she landed in Fiji. Luckily for us, a recent Nicolandria interview with ET gave us the full breakdown, and we’ll be adding these islander-approved products to our cart ASAP.

Olandria Carthen’s Go-To Lip Combo, Revealed

From the moment Nicolandria stepped back on American soil, it was clear that Vansteenberghe was the epitome of chivalry, with clips of him carrying Carthen’s luggage going viral instantly. It became even more clear when the couple sat down for an interview with Entertainment Tonight, and Vansteenberghe was quick to dig into his pockets and pull out his boo’s lip products when the interviewer asked about Olandria’s sought-after lip combo.

After realizing that Carthen was in fact saying NYX and not “Nic’s” this whole time, she clarified that her lip combo consists of two budget-friendly yet high-impact products. First, she lines the lips with LA Girl’s Perfect Precision Lip Liner ($3.50) in a dark brown shade, before layering NYX’s Butter Gloss in Lava Cake ($6) on top. Coming in at under $10, Carthen’s lip combo is destined to become a fan favorite.
