There’s a time and place for every beauty trend—or many of them, at least—and dark, matte lipsticks don’t go hand in hand with warm beach days. What does pair well with a cold mimosa and sunbathing? Lightweight, almost-sheer glosses that punch up any look *just* enough. Here, seven that are about to be on heavy rotation.
High shine, long wear and intense pigment make up Charlotte
Tilbury’s latest lip-enhancer that’s perfect for every day. Made up of six
nude-to-berry shades—our favorite is Belle du Sour, pictured—there’s a hue for
every mood, and each promises mirror-like shine that won’t slip.
Looking for one of those no-fuss glosses you can apply
without a mirror? The coveted, universally-flattering Orgasm shade is back, but
now in a fast-absorbing, hydrating lip oil that conditions as it shines—minus
all the goopy mess.
A lip plumper-meets show-stopping gloss, this nonsticky
formula instantly boosts hydration and plumps without the sting of traditional
lip plumpers. We’re partial to the shade Ignite, pictured, (a peachy nude with
gold flecks) but the 18-shade range includes flattering pinks, nudes and even an
ethereal clear coat.
If you’re after a consistency lighter than a gloss—think a
fluid, but not sticky—with the dry-down of a stain, look no further than this
limited-edition nude that sticks around all day.
This shimmer-packed gloss looks a little intimidating in the
tube, but once it’s applied, lips are swathed with a pinky-nude hue and iridescent
pearls that amp up dimension instantly as hyaluronic filling spheres help support
volume over time.
$75 for a lip gloss? Look at it as a treatment with a subtle sheen. The brand’s iconic Miracle Broth, plus antioxidants and serious hydrators that work to fade lip lines over time, make this your-lips-but-better formula worth every penny.
Just like highlighter can add dimension to our faces, this
first-of-its-kind “lip highlighter” spotlights the high points of the lip to make
it look fuller when applied to the cupid’s bow or all-over. What’s not an
illusion, however, is the blend of hydrating oils and ultra-filling light
spheres inside the bottle to benefit lips for hours.
