Glo Skin Beauty Conditioning Lip Gloss - Cloud 9

A lip gloss that cares for your lips while you wear it, with enough shine to be noticed and without the sticky feeling that keeps most people away from gloss.

Why it works

That stickiness comes from thick, tacky binding agents that are used in many glosses to maintain the shine. This formula is built more like a balm and draws its nourishing properties from hyaluronic acid and aloe vera. Hyaluronic acid binds moisture in the tissue, making the lip feel fuller from within instead of just looking wetter on the surface. On top of that, there is an antioxidant complex with vitamins C and E and green tea extract, which protects and soothes the lips.

The texture is balm-like and glossy without being sticky. The color is translucent but still has real pigment, so you can see it: it's not a colorless layer. It comes with a soft applicator that allows for precise application.

About this shade

Cloud 9 is a pink with shimmer: cooler than Fizz, light and shiny. The fine particles catch the light without becoming glittery. A fresh color that opens up a tired face, and beautiful on cool or neutral skin tones.

For whom

For those who would like to wear gloss but can't stand their hair getting stuck in it. Also for those whose lips tend to feel tight in the winter or in dry indoor air. And, surprisingly, even if you normally only wear matte colors: a layer of this over the top instantly transforms that same color into something else.

How to use it

Apply with the applicator, either alone or over your lipstick. If you want your lips to look fuller, add an extra dab to the middle of your lower lip and blend outward from the center. That is where the light hits, and that is what suggests volume. A common mistake: applying too much at once. A thin layer shines just as brightly as a thick layer and lasts longer.

A final tip

Gloss is the product people apologize for the most and use the most. I am regularly told that it might be too youthful, but that is not true: it is precisely shine that makes a more mature lip look fuller, while matte accentuates every line. One honest piece of advice: you will need to touch it up. Gloss does not last all day; that is impossible with this texture. Expect to reapply after eating and keep it in your bag.
