Application of lip gloss

Lip gloss is a thick liquid or soft solid, which provides shine and slight shimmer to the lips. It is resistant to water and can remain for long spans of time. It is oily and reflects light. It is applied on the lipstick or solo for a natural shade. After applying the required coats of lipstick, lip gloss is applied to achieve a stunning effect. Then, a single tissue paper is held between the lips. Some loose powder is sieved through the paper. This reduces the extra gleam. Also, due to the powder the lip gloss does not melt quickly and lasts longer.

Types of lip gloss

Lip glosses are packed in tubes with an application surface, which matches the curves of the lips. The tube is pressed and the lip gloss is applied with fingers. Alternatively, it is available in cylindrical containers, which have a wand to apply it. It may also be available in pots or panels, from which it can be applied by using a lipstick brush. Lip glosses are available in different flavors like strawberry, watermelon and some candy varieties. They may be translucent or opaque, having metallic or frosted or dazzling appearance.

To achieve special effects for an evening, silver or gold or iridescent lip glosses are used.
