Lip Gloss: Love It or hate?

Choose this product for lips to apply the science is not exactly rocket. Your choice can be summarized in three basic products: lipstick, lip gloss and lip balm.

But I never get a lip gloss.

If it was not clear from his ode to Cherry Chapstick, Katy Perry rebel beauty is also a glossophobe. Jake Bailey, makeup Perry, said she refuses to use gloss because it makes her feel embarrassed. "Many women, some of my clients included, have a phobia of light lip gloss. Singers in particular tend to stay away because their lips can stick together slightly, as they try to sing, "says Bailey. I can not imagine Perry-which is basically the music industry Wonder Woman feel insecure about anything. But that has not had a messy situation of your hair gets stuck to your lips, after a gust of wind chaotic?

For those of us who want to face our fears and experiment with bright shiny things, Bailey recommends a lightweight formula that is not too sticky and pure color. "Heavier formulas tend to glop on the corners of the mouth and glosses pigment too can look sloppy if not impeccably maintained." Bailey uses a brush to apply lip gloss on its customers, "but when you apply yourself the easiest to use his fingers, except that this is the kind that comes with a wand. " Gloss should be applied in a thin, uniform "using too much product will start to look messy very quickly," said Bailey.
