Never underestimate the power of a good…make that GREAT lip gloss.
{Too Faced Glamour Glosses – Left to Right – “Pillow Talk” + “Barely Legal.”}
It’s a known fact that as we age, our lips lose a little of their volume and become thinner over time. Boo. Since I started out with naturally thin lips, this is a big bummer for me because I love the look of a full pout!! So I am forever on the search for a gloss or lipstick that gives my lips a boost of volume with one swipe because I can use all the help I can get. I also love it when that lip product is a neutral shade that can easily be worn with any eyeshadow or clothing look I decide upon for the day. Luckily, I am now the proud owner of two shades of Too Faced Cosmetics Glamour Gloss ($19 each).

Here are a couple of shots of my new plumping glosses with no liners or any other lip color products underneath. Just straight up lip gloss so you can see how beautiful and luscious these glosses make my tiny lips look! And to be quite honest, I don’t think these pictures do this gloss justice as to how ULTRA GLOSSY the end result is. (Just for fun, here’s a looksy at me wearing this gloss along with little Viv making a kissy face!)
{“Pillow Talk,” the darker of the two. True neutral with hint of mauve.}
{“Barely Legal,” the lighter of the two. More of a white based nude.}
My personal favorite is the Pillow Talk because it has a bit more pigment for my already colorless lips so I feel it makes my lips look naturally fuller. Here’s why I love this product:
1. The packaging. Hello, it has a fake crystal on the top of the wand so when you apply it you feel a bit more glamorous!
2. It has their Lip Injection comfort plump technology. That means it tingles in a good way and doesn’t hurt!
3. It is ultra ultra glossy which = sexy and luscious!
4. $19 is not a bad price in my opinion for a gloss that performs this beautifully.
Yes, to get something that looks this shiny and glossy, it has a slight sticky factor, but I’ve worn worse, and honestly that doesn’t bother me when it looks this good. I will definitely be buying other shades in this Glamour Gloss.
Have you tried this gloss? What lip plumpers have you tried and liked?
