e.l.f. Cosmetics Tests Main Stain Lip Marker Against Canada’s Favourite Comfort Food With POUT-ine Challenge
e.l.f. Cosmetics is bringing beauty into a very Canadian setting with the launch of the POUT-ine Challenge, a creator-led campaign testing the staying power of its new Main Stain Lip Marker.
The social-first activation pairs the new lip product with one of Canada’s most recognized comfort foods: poutine.
Through creator content and wear tests, e.l.f. is asking participants to see how the lip marker performs from the first cheesy bite to the final fry.
A Beauty Challenge Inspired by Canadian Food Culture
Instead of a traditional product demonstration, e.l.f. Cosmetics is turning the Main Stain Lip Marker launch into a social conversation.
The POUT-ine Challenge highlights everyday moments where makeup meets real life, showing how a bold lip can fit into meals, outings, and social occasions.
Creators will put the product through food-focused tests while showcasing its colour payoff and staying power.

Putting Lip Colour Through a Real-World Test
