Want fashion's trendy patent vinyl finish in makeup? This lip lacquer is a light-reflecting clear gloss that has as much shine as any pair of patent pants, thanks to pulverized pearls. The crushed pearls are subtler than chunky glitter so they don't take away from the wet-look finish.
Expecting a liquid or jelly formula? Don't be thrown by the solid stick. Swipe it on skin and the lightweight, silky formula delivers a dewy — not oily — finish. It creates that coveted lit-from-within glow and feels weightless on skin.
Dab this gloss onto lids and it deposits glassy shine without an uncomfortable tacky finish. Wear it by itself or mix with different eyeshadows for a look that slays. FYI: The lighter colors are gorgeous stippled on cheekbones.
Make no mistake, this is a lip gel. It's actually inspired by gel nail polishes and delivers a high gloss finish with plumped shine. Don't let the gel texture put you off because it feels light on lips without any tackiness or hair-stuck-to-lips problems.
Always ahead of the curve, Glossier recreated the lip gloss of our youth — but better. The brand claims to have taken out all of the things we didn't like about glosses (stickiness, grit, glitter, gluey feel) and left in everything we were obsessed with. The result is a clear gloss with a glassy, wet-look finish that will stay put for longer than five minutes.
