Lipgloss

 get lippy with gloss

Lip gloss is a staple in every make up bag and we all go through our fair share of lip glosses trying to find just the right one. The qualities that I look for in lip gloss is, easy application, no stickiness and high gloss shine. I found these qualities in two of my favourite lip glosses, NARS and Pure Color by Estee Lauder.

Nars lip glosses are easy to apply with an array of vivid colours, moisturizing, no stickiness and long lasting wear.
