lip prints

Lipstick on glass

Lip prints are the impressions left by lipstick on surfaces—glasses, napkins, collars, cheeks.

They function like lipstick kisses made visible: The wine glass was covered in lip prints.

In forensics, lip prints refer to the unique pattern of lines and grooves on human lips, sometimes used for identification like fingerprints.
