I find wearing lipglosses one of the hardest things to do. Naturally living in the UK means you're constantly inundated with the wind blowing through your hair....and then sticking to you lipgloss, and then you move your hair and suddenly you have lipgloss all over your cheek. - It's not a fab look when you're on your way to work.
Lipgloss is also one of those products I only really used when I was like 13/14 but since finally delving into it a bit more, I've found 2 formulas that I can actually wear.
Colourpop's Ultra Glossy Lip 'Fairy Floss' had been on my wishlist for an absolute age. I've heard KathleenLights rave on and on about it being the ultimate gloss and I have to agree, I am addicted. I love everything about this product from the packaging, the applicator, the colour and the formula. This is an incredible lipgloss formula, it isn't sticky at all and just adds such a pure sheen to your lips. There is no glitter pigments in it and extremely comfortable to wear even in the wind. Although my one tiny tiny gripe is the fact that it doesn't The colour is a sheer beige shade which I find is more of a lipstick topper lipgloss and looks great on top of nude lipsticks such as Charlotte Tilburys 'Bitch Perfect' and 'Pillow Talk'.
The Tanya Burr 'I Found Nemo' lipgloss. I have always been skeptical when it comes to YouTuber branded products but I have to say the two products I have tried from Tanya Burr, I've been incredibly impressed with. Although the doe-foot applicator isn't my favourite (it's not firm enough and therefore can be tricky to apply) the formula is really outstanding. Although it is mildly stickier than the Colourpop one, it does mean that the longevity is great. The pigmentation in this is equally as amazing, it's one that you don't really use on top of a lipstick although I'm sure you can so I love wearing this when I want a bold lip but without the intense upkeep during the day.

Lipgloss has really grown on me this year! I loooove the look of I Found Nemo! I too am skeptical about the whole YouTuber products thing too, but this generally looks beautiful.

I haven't tried much from TB but the liquid lipstick is great. I love a good gloss but you're so right, I avoid them because of the wind and then for the gloss to smear across my chin, aah, no no, I can't be doing that everyday haha!

I am loving lip glosses, but I am much like you, I have stayed away from them for such a long time because of my hair blowing in them!
ReplyDeleteI love the Bare Minerals lip glosses, they are so pretty and not at all sticky!

I love Tanya's lipglosses so much, They're so nice xx

I'm the same as you and pretty much gave up on lip glosses due to my hair always sticking to my lips! I'm definitely going to have to give that Colourpop gloss a try if it's not sticky! <3 xxx

These are the prettiest shades! I hate having my hair stuck to my lips, but I'm tempted to give these two a go! xx

I've been meaning to get into lip gloss for a while, but just never have! These ones sound great xx

I love the colour pop ultra gloss formula. I'm definitely planning to get more shades from them! I didn't like the ultra matte formula at all. It was far too drying and the ultra satin was okay. I want to get many many more shades from the ultra glossy formula.

Tanya's shade is really pretty! I recently picked up Fairy Floss and the Aquarius Ultra Glossy Lip and I love them both! Kathleen's recommendations never disappoint haha

I really want to try Tanya's lipglosses, the colours look beautiful! I'm not much of a lipgloss gal anymore though, I just cannot cope with pulling my hair out of it every five seconds!! x
ReplyDeletewww.misszarabelle.com
Totally get what you mean with lipglosses but these sound super-wearable and shades I'd wear too! polishedcouture.com xx
ReplyDeleteI've wanted to try Tanya's for a long time now but I just never wear lipglosses! Xx
ReplyDeleteSophiejc.blogspot.co.uk
They are both beautiful shades and I love that they are affordable too, I am obsessed with the NYX butter glosses. Thank you for sharing, want to pick up both of these! Xx

I absolutely love lip glosses! In New Zealand it is also always constantly windy and so I understand the pain of your hair sticking and getting caught in the gloss but I feel like it's something I'm just used to now haha
