Delivering on shine, nourishment, pigment and even a plumping effect, lip glosses have come a long way since they first came onto the beauty scene. A lip gloss or plumper is perfect for a fresh look that can easily be taken from day to night – whether you wear it alone for the ultimate wet-look shine, over your favourite lip colour or with a lip liner. The game-changing Hourglass Glossy Balm provides high shine and hydration, while Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm makes lips look plumper.
Your Questions, Answered
Lip gloss is a product designed to add a shimmery or high-shine finish to the lips. Additionally, it can help keep your lips hydrated, create the look of plumper lips and deliver a pretty wash of colour. Lip gloss can be worn on its own, with a lip liner to create a fuller and more defined look, or even over lipstick for a glossy finish.
Some of the most popular lip glosses at Space NK include the VIEVE Lip Dew, which looks fab on its own as well as layered over a lipstick, and the Lisa Eldridge Gloss Embrace if you love shimmer and a good colour payoff. We also love Summer Fridays lip gloss for a high-shine finish and hydrating skincare benefits in one.
Lip gloss and lip balm serve different purposes, so which formula is better will simply depend on your personal preference! Whilst lip gloss delivers on shine, lip balm delivers on hydration. Many lip balms can be worn under lip gloss to maximise hydration and nourishment. Moreover, you’ll find lots of lip products that combine the perks of both lip balms and glosses, such as the must-try Hourglass Glossy Balm or Laneige Glaze Craze Tinted Lip Serum.
