ICYMI, high shine lips have made a comeback. Yup, it’s officially eclipsing the matte lip look (soz Kylie). Over on Instagram, all trend loving girls are wearing glosses and we ain’t complaining.
We know that the glossy lips fad got a bad rep for feeling super sticky in the early 2000s. But the lip glosses of yesterdays are nothing like the ones of today. From barely there and delicate to bold and unexpected, lip glosses have gotten a serious glow-up, and in place of a gluey varnish, hydrating, shiny, and balm-like finishes have been switched in. If you hate the feeling of your hair getting stuck to your lips or the glue-like sensation when your lips rub together, we’ve made the executive decision to ditch these glosses in 2022 and replace them with our top 8 non-sticky glosses below.
8 Lip Glosses That Will Make Even Matte Addicts Switch Sides
Nail That Kylie-Esque Pout
Tbh, nothing makes us happier than a high-shine plumping lip gloss. This fast and dramatic super plumper instantly inflates even the skimpiest lips on the spot.
