Lil Mama said it best when she sang "They say my lip gloss is cool, My lip gloss be poppin'". Lipgloss has been a makeup staple for decades, made popular by hip hop and RnB artists like Lil' Mama, Lil' Kim, Aaliyah, and Beyonce. With a glossy sheen that attracts attention to your pucker, lip gloss is not for the timid. It's bold, attention-grabbing, and vibrant, perfect for the makeup lover who loves to have fun with their makeup.

While matte lipstick had its moment in the mid-2010s thanks to the iconic Kylie Cosmetics lipkit, it has since been eclipsed by the return of lip gloss. The beauty of lip gloss is in its versatility. You can wear it on its own on those no makeup days where you just want a little something to make you look like you tried. You can also wear it with just a lip liner to help add some colour and shape your lips, just make sure to blend your lip liner so that it doesn't look too drawn on. You can also wear lip gloss over lipsticks to add more sheen to your makeup look.

Keep it simple with a clear lip gloss or go for colour to add a new hue to your lips. Nude lip gloss is always a classic, whereas pink lip gloss gives off fun, summer energy. Brown lip gloss is sultry, rich and moody, perfect for date night glam. If you want a bit more fullness in your lips, opt for a lip plumper gloss. When you apply it, you'll feel a tingling sensation take over your lips. Don't panic - that's how you know it's working. Just sit back and watch your lips get juicier.

The best lip gloss is one with high shine and great colour payoff without being sticky or tacky. It can be a hard combination to achieve, but there are many beauty brands that have reached this goal.
