Outshine the stars with lip gloss!
Like lipstick, gloss leaves your lips looking glamorous! Whether shiny, shimmery, pearly, sheer or tinted, it always delivers remarkable results!
Lip gloss, versatility at its finest!
Lip gloss can be used to complement or replace lipstick. The choice is yours! It will add a gorgeous dose of shimmer to lip colour or, used solo, give your pout a beautiful, distinctive finish. It’s an easy way to moisturize your lips and make them shine.
But there is a hitch. It needs to be reapplied often. Despite the arrival of long-wear formulas, gloss just does not stay put for long.

“Repulping” lip gloss, why go without!
Safe and ingenious, these products create a mini skin reaction that causes mild swelling of the lips and enhances their colour by stimulating blood flow. For fabulous results, make sure you do not apply outside the lip line.
You should know that these types of gloss tend to dehydrate the lips and, over time, can even cause irritation. While it is normal to feel a slight tingling upon application, cease use should the reaction continue or cause discomfort.

As simple as 1, 2, 3!
Here are the steps for perfect lip gloss application!
- Exfoliate your lips. Use a product made especially for this purpose or just apply lip balm and gently rub with a tissue paper to eliminate dead skin cells.
- Use a lip liner over the entire surface of your lips, choosing a neutral shade or a colour that matches your lip gloss. This will extend its hold.
- Apply your gloss!
Beauty tips
- If you have thin lips, try a light shade in a lustrous finish.
- If you have full lips, a dark gloss with an opaque finish will make them stand out beautifully.
- If you decide to shine the spotlight on your lips, be sure to play down your eyes and cheeks (unless it’s for an evening look).
