FALLING IN LOVE WITH LIPGLOSS

When it comes to lip products I’m usually a matte lipstick girl through and through. Either a matte lip or just lip balm. Yeah, it would seem like I’m an all or nothing kinda gal haha! However, lately I started watching a new series on Netflix, new to me anyway, it’s called The Client List. It’s a series I can throw on in the background while I’m cooking or doing stuff around the house as it doesn’t require too much concentration. Jennifer Love Hewitt is the main actress and she always wears lipgloss and not gonna lie, she got me raiding my makeup drawers to see what lip glosses I have laying around. I’ve been loving glosses lately thanks to that show, so I wanted to show you the four I’ve been rotating between.

They’re all pretty similar in colour, pinky nudes. I always say that I struggle to wear pink lipsticks, but when it comes to lip glosses I actually think they suit me pretty well. Chanel Glossimer in 181 is a pinky peach with gold shimmers. Laura Mercier Angelic is the palest out of them all, almost like a milky pink and I never in a million years thought that I would suit this shade, but in lipgloss form it actually looks very nice with a smokey eye. Blush by Laura Mercier is definitely more of a ‘my lips but better’ kinda shade. It’s a browny pink that really does look like my natural lip colour, just with a lot of shine. And lastly the NYX Butter Gloss in Tiramisu. I found NYX in my local Boots last month and was so excited! I’ve wanted to try their lip products for such a long time! But I must admit that I was a little overwhelmed by all the amazing colours they had on display so I ended up just picking one shade. It reminds me a lot of the Chanel lipgloss but more pink and no shimmer.

L to R: Chanel 181, L.Mercier Angelic, L.Mercier Blush, NYX Tiramisu

They all feel lovely on the lips and none of them are sticky which is something I found really surprising. I had this idea that all lip glosses were uncomfortable and sticky to wear, but I guess I got lucky because I have no complaints when it comes to these four.

Are you a lipgloss or a lipstick kinda gal?
