One should remember that perfection is ten percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. So you need patience, perseverance and if you are lucky you will get the best lip gloss. Hopefully, the following tips will help you discover the lip gloss that best suits your lips.
1. Be open, do not forget to experiment
There are numerous brands of lip gloss and the prices of each vary. A 40 rupees lip gloss bought at a neighborhood drugstore is not necessarily inferior in quality compared to an 80 rupees lip gloss compact. Lips could only appreciate the texture, smoothness, silkiness of the gloss or feel its heaviness. Lips do not care about how much the lip gloss cost or where it was bought. Though many lip glosses at times do offer a super-glossy feel that it almost glides delightfully on the lips, there are also not too expensive lip glosses which could give the high-end brands a run for their money. A label just confuses you to pick up your choice. Try your luck, win or lose, it's all worth a penny.
2. A gloss is not forever
– Reapply to preserve the dye
– Some brands, even the best ones, fade off after a few hours
– Some people really do not like the feel of a heavy gloss
– Judge by your lip color not anyone else’s
3. Selection Tips
Make sure to choose a lip gloss based on your lip color, since the color of your lips automatically affects the color of the gloss applied on it. Never choose based on how good or bad a lip gloss looks on your friend or sister. Some have thin pale lips while others have full pucker-up ones. Naturally, yours is worlds apart from theirs, if not better. Lip gloss colors appear differently on different people. One’s own lip color plays an important part because your natural lip color will shine through. So does your natural lip tone, the pigmentation of the lip gloss, how convenient is it when applied and whatever it is you’re looking for a lip gloss. Clearly this is as unique, individual and personalized as it could be.
4. Not all that Glitters is Good
No matter how great it looks, make sure that the lip gloss put on the lips feels comfortable, as if it’s almost like it wasn’t there. Lip gloss glitter that feels gritty or sharp should not be tolerated by the lips or by you. Do not be afraid to return it to the store and politely explain to the store clerk or – preferably – the store manager your problem. It should be exchanged for another lip gloss tube. But if the same trouble persist, maybe it is time to change to a different brand, specifically one that has not too much glitter that it hurts.
Conclusion
Be realistic, lip gloss gives lips a smooth shimmer, it does not provide anyone with kissable cottony-soft lips. Lip balms do that. Lip Balms are not shiny. But it makes lips feel supple. Apply a lip balm over the lips first to provide a layer of protection before putting on a lip gloss, this is to moisturize the lips.
Every girl loves to put a lip gloss for that shiny and beautiful either red, pink, orange lips. Lip gloss definitely makes the lips shiny, but it doesn't protect the lips in any ways. Applying lip gloss for an occasion is ok, but not good for daily use.
