✨ Campaign of the week: Rhode Lemontini

Just because she's sold Rhode to e.l.f, Hailey Bieber is far from taking a step back. She's made the iconic move of flipping the butter yellow trend and turning it into her own lemon yellow summer.

Hailey is the trendsetting influencer, whether it's glazed doughnut nails or clean girl aesthetics. So, starting a new trend with the Rhode lemontini is the perfect way to authentically advertise her new peptide lip tint.
