Matte lipstick or gloss. Matte lip gloss - which one is better to choose? Current places of application

21.04.2019

Many representatives of the fair sex prefer lip gloss, while others believe that they would not exchange their favorite lipstick for anything. However, both gloss and lipstick have their disadvantages and advantages. Let's try to find a compromise and find out what is better.

Relevant choice

The lipstick is suitable for makeup in a more seasoned style; to work, business for evening makeup and business meetings.

Lip gloss is perfect for casual wear. Choose glitter if you do bright makeup eye.

Effect

Do you want to highlight your lips? Make a special accent and give them volume? Here are a couple of tips for both lipstick lovers and gloss fans.

Apply lipstick slowly, take your time. This way your lip makeup will be absolutely flawless.

With the help of gloss, you can add volume to your lips, make them plumper and sexier. The main thing is not to get carried away too much!

How long will it last?

Unfortunately, ordinary lipstick lasts no more than 2 hours on the lips. Of course, this depends on the manufacturer and how and what you eat. Some brands today offer lipsticks that can last up to 18 hours.

Lip gloss most often does not stay on the lips for too long. But don't be afraid to experiment with different brands and collections. By the way, Special attention Please note that “sticky” glosses last longer.

It is believed that the first lip gloss (like many other common makeup products) was created by Max Factor in the 1930s. Initially they were produced for actresses of black and white films, but today lip glosses are in the cosmetic bags of millions of women around the world. Let's figure out what they are, how to apply them correctly and how long to store them.

What is lip gloss?

As the name suggests, the main task of lip glosses is to actually give your lips a beautiful glossy shine. But today lip glosses are produced with both a matte texture and a satin “finish”; they can be both colored and transparent. Lip gloss, as a rule, has a liquid or creamy texture and is sold in bottles with a soft applicator or in tubes, less often in palettes or jars.

Composition of lip glosses

How to apply lip gloss correctly?

One of the reasons why many women prefer lip glosses is ease of use. No special skills are required for this.

The easiest way to paint your lips is with a gloss with an applicator. Simply dip the applicator into the bottle, then spread the product evenly across your lips. If you accidentally go beyond the contours, correct your makeup using a cotton swab moistened. If the lip gloss is very bright, you can also further disguise the “errors”.

If you are using lip gloss in a tube, apply a small amount to the center of your lower lip and spread it out with your finger or the tip of the tube. Close and open your lips to complete your makeup.

It is better to distribute the product with your fingers using patting, “tamping” movements.

Some people may find it more convenient to apply lip glosses with a synthetic bristle brush. Move from the center of the lips to the edges.

Problems can arise when applying matte lip gloss, as in this case extreme precision is needed. First use in tone to define the contours of the lips.

If you are not 100% satisfied with the condition of your lips, prepare your skin before applying gloss. Use or lightly massage your lips with a toothbrush. Then apply lip balm and let it absorb properly. Blot the remainder with a napkin. You can also apply a little powder or foundation on your lips to even out their surface.

Another way is to first paint your lips with your favorite lipstick, and then apply it in the center of both the bottom and upper lip a drop of liquid glitter. This will help visually make your lips look fuller.

Lip gloss should be applied in the same way as liquid lipstick (strictly speaking, these are the same product). Watch our video to learn more about using liquid matte lipstick.

14 types of lip glosses

The days when lip gloss could be either clear or pearlescent are long gone. Today there are dozens of types of lip glosses on sale, they differ in texture, release form, composition, and purpose. Let's look at the most popular formats.

The founders of the genre, these lip glosses still occupy a central place in our hearts and makeup bags. A classic lip gloss with a mirror effect can be used on its own or applied over lipstick (clear glosses are great for this). Look for a list of verified ones.

Hit recent years– lip products with a matte texture. Neither beautyholics nor cosmetics manufacturers are embarrassed that such an effect “competes” with the basic function of lip glosses. Matte lipsticks and glosses look very impressive, but require certain requirements. Look for matte glosses that contain nourishing and moisturizing ingredients - for example, Lip Lingerie from NYX Professional Makeup boasts vitamin E and sunflower seed oil in its composition.

Moisturizing

Any lip gloss containing moisturizing and nourishing ingredients. This performs three functions at once - it gives the lips tint and noticeable shine, and also takes care of them. For example, the Infaillible lip gloss from L’Oréal Paris contains hyaluronic acid.

Persistent

As a rule, matte lip glosses boast a long-lasting formula - for example, Lip Magnet from Giorgio Armani. The durability of this product is up to eight hours, so feel free to use it for makeup for an important party.

If you decide to try a bold fluorescent lip gloss, keep in mind that the rest of your makeup should be fairly neutral. Neon lips are a bright, self-sufficient accent of your look.

With shimmer

Pearlescent lip glosses were especially popular in the 1990s, but their glory has returned! Rare fashion show Nowadays, people do without this product; glosses with a metallic effect are especially respected. Rating good glitter for lips with shimmer we have collected in.

Glitter balm

A caring balm that gives lips tint and shine. Many modern gloss-balms provide not only a momentary, but also a cumulative effect. For example, Naked from Urban Decay when regular use smooths out fine wrinkles on the lips.

Cushion

Plumper

Plumpers are products for increasing lip volume. This effect is achieved due to specific components in the composition. They stimulate blood circulation (for example, menthol is responsible for this) or fill out small “wrinkles” on the skin of the lips, so they look plumper. Thus, the best-selling Revolution High Color Lip Gloss from Urban Decay contains a special Hilurlip formula, which clearly adds volume to the lips. Find our rating of lip glosses that really make your lips look bigger.

Lip varnish

This shine provides a convincing varnish effect. The real record holder in this area is the YSL brand: there are more than 30 shades in the Vernis à Lèvres lip varnish collection. There are even versions with a “vinyl” finish.

Glitter pencil

Until recently, lip pencil meant exclusively contour, but today pencils are also used instead of lipsticks and glosses. This gloss is convenient to use, and it definitely won’t smear in your makeup bag. Compared to regular gloss, it provides a more delicate and delicate color - to get a bright lip makeup, the product must be applied in several layers.

If previously there was a point in dividing lipsticks and glosses into two different categories (lipsticks - with a solid core, glosses - with a liquid texture), then nowadays everything is mixed up. Liquid lipsticks are essentially lip glosses, so it’s worth putting an equal sign between these two products.

Tint-shine

Infaillible, L'Oréal Paris

Under one black cap there is a huge number of different shades and, what is even more interesting, different textures. Look carefully at the marks that are on the transparent bottle: matte (matte), cream (cream), dazzle (shimmering). The line also includes neon and glossy shades, but you will recognize them without any hints.

Cosmic Metals Lip Cream, NYX Professional Makeup

A series of glosses for those who have already mastered basic course makeup and wants to switch to new level. Emerald, cobalt or bright purple gloss with strong shimmer will make you the star of any party and street style chronicle. It’s nice that such experiments with makeup will not harm the skin: the gloss formula is gentle and contains vitamin E. You may have to use a contour pencil for the ideal effect, but the end result is worth the extra effort

L'Absolu Roses, Lancôme

14 shades of L’Absolu Rôses lip gloss – a gift to fans of the brand for the New Year 2018. The products went on sale in November and immediately made people talk about themselves. Despite the elegant, strict packaging and classic shades, with the help of this gloss you can easily make bold beauty experiments: create ombre, kissed lips effect or metallic makeup.

Wanted Gloss, Helena Rubinstein

Helena Rubinstein has only one series of lip glosses in its collection, but you don’t need more. Wanted Gloss has a shimmering texture that gives your lips a beautiful shine and an impressive composition. Royal jelly moisturizes and nourishes the skin, a formula based on collagen and silicone microspheres adds volume to them, and a complex of oils smoothes the surface of the lips.

Lip Magnet, Giorgio Armani

You can sing odes to the recent new product from Giorgio Armani endlessly. The brand's specialists have solved the main problem that arises when using matte textures: this matte gloss does not dry out the lips!

Natalia Vlasova The choice of the founder and creative director of the Moscow school of makeup artists @mosmake

Matte lipstick pencil, Velvet Matte Lip Pencil, Red Square NARS

I can’t help but say about the perfect red with the patriotic name Red Square. Like all NARS lipsticks, they are comfortable on the lips, at the same time long-lasting, with a matte finish. I think this red can be used every day - like bright accent natural makeup.

Price: about 1,300 rub.

Lipstick,LIS Lisboa, Uslu Airlines

Uslu Airlines lipsticks are good not only in quality, but also in concept - each shade is assigned an airport code. I really like Lisbon (LIS) - not only for filming, but also for my own makeup.

Lipstick Le Rouge Crayon de Couleur, 5 rouge, Chanel

This is the case when just looking at lipstick already causes a release of endorphins. You can immediately imagine how you will put this convenient pencil in your clutch and be carried away “into the night” (or maybe “into the day”: on the chanel.ru website there are 6 shades in stock - from nude to fuchsia). The brand promises a satin finish, comfort to wear and longevity, rare for a glossy lipstick - at least four hours (the formula contains special film-forming pigments).

But in reality everything is even better than the press release says. I applied Le Rouge Crayon De Couleur two hours before going to the theater - and by intermission I still had the same flawless red lip! (and for a second they showed “Uncle’s Dream” at the Mayakovsky Theater, each act lasted an hour and a half). The lipstick came off completely in about seven hours and did it like a lady - without streaks or the “Dracula’s kiss” effect. In fact, it simply absorbed into the lips - so that they looked a little brighter than usual.

Special thanks to Chanel for the satin finish. Now everyone is obsessed with matte lipsticks (by the way, Chanel has bomb matte “ink” for lips in the Chanel Ink line), but, you see, it’s boring to wear the same textures every day. It's like having only one 2.55 handbag - you need both a white and a blue one, and you can't live without a red one. I myself adore matte formulas, but when I want more “life” on my lips, I choose gloss or satin. At Le Rouge Crayon De Couleur, it has the optimal density - not too greasy and not quite airy. You feel it on your lips for the first few seconds - and then you live with him, as with your beloved husband, not counting the hours spent together. Well, Chanel marketers should be given a separate bonus for the shape of the pencil. I painted Le Rouge Crayon De Couleur both in a taxi, and in an elevator, and in general by touch in the dark - and I never drew a red mustache for myself, but I didn’t even go beyond the contour. For the summer I’ll buy a fuchsia shade and paint it on a sun lounger on the seashore.

Price: 2,600 rub.

Always On Liquid Lipstick, Driver's Seat, Smashbox

If you're still looking for the perfect selfie lipstick, this is it. Perfect contour (without a pencil!), dense coverage and unusual color - what else do you need for likes?

The brothers had a photography studio, which included makeup. The photographers wanted it to be durable and the models to be comfortable. The guys took this formula - durability plus comfort - as the basis when creating Smashbox.

Price: 1 436 rubles.

I’m already talking about Rita Hayworth lipstick: Francois Nars has a lot of reds in her assortment, but it is Rita that seems to take pride of place in the scarlet shade.

Pomade Lip Paint Matte, shade Red Actually, L'Oreal Paris

L’Oreal Paris has a very good launch - liquid dense lipsticks in soft tubes called Lip Paint. They exist in matte and varnish versions, but matte, as can be seen from the photo, is not too matte - although they dry out a little during wear. Red Actually - cheerful cheeky light scarlet .

Vice Lipstick, shade Zealot, Urban Decay

Urban Decay lipsticks, and the entire brand, are mine weakness. While I am getting acquainted with liquid Vice, do not forget about the classic ones.

Zealot is interesting precisely because of its tiny golden shimmer, which is not at all vulgar.

Price: 1,550 rub.

Lipstick Retro Matte, shade Ruby Woo, M.A.C

If a lipstick can be legendary, then this is it - launched in 1999, the uncompromisingly matte red Ruby Woo, which has repeatedly appeared on the lists of major cosmetic bestsellers.

Pomade Hues of Enchantment, Raw Silence, Rouge Bunny Rouge

RBR loves complex, muted colors. The only bright red in the brand is not so bright - Raw Silence is well suited for the role of the first red lipstick in your life or for a less strict office.

Pomade The Lipstick, shade Devil, Dolce & Gabbana

In the D&G assortment, I probably love the lipsticks most of all - they are thick, bright, and pleasant on the lips.

And the name is also very strong.

The first thing you admire about this lipstick is the spectacular bottle made of matte gold. It was designed by Parisian jeweler and designer Herve Van der Straten.

Each tool has its own pros and cons. And the choice in favor of gloss or lipstick depends on what kind of makeup, the place and time where you will need to “walk” the new cosmetics. Of course, gloss to gloss and lipstick to lipstick are different. And it often happens that you have to try the whole range of new products from different manufacturers in order to finally find your one and only thing. But you shouldn’t give up lipstick in favor of gloss, and you also shouldn’t choose lipstick at the expense of shine. Keep both in your makeup bag. To a beautiful woman everything will come in handy.

Lipstick or gloss in winter: and our motto is to shine

As soon as glitter began to enter our “beautiful” life, both supporters and opponents appeared among fashionistas. Many people probably remembered the texture of the first new products - they turned out to be too sticky. And as soon as you went outside in the summer with “shiny” lips, poplar fluff and specks of “sand storms” immediately stuck to them. own hair. Of course, after this, the makeup didn’t look great. But over time, the variety of brands pleased fashionistas, because it became possible to choose products with a dense texture, and sticking was avoided. With all that said, let's summarize everything we've learned about lip glosses (read also):

modern lip glosses have a denser texture compared to their “firstborns”. Now they are not as sticky as before;
sponge glosses due large quantity“liquids” allow you to constantly keep your lips moisturized. And this has a good effect on them appearance;
but during severe frosts it is better to save the glitter until it warms up. Because the “wetness” of the texture quickly “freezes”, as a result, the lips dry out and become wrinkled.

Lip gloss is an excellent product for those who want to look well-groomed and elegant. Especially if you like to paint your eyes brightly and expressively. In this case, lip gloss will only highlight your image, maintaining beauty and avoiding excesses.

Lipstick or gloss in winter: let's be a little more restrained

If glosses are used to enlarge lips and draw attention to them, then stylists recommend “wearing” lipstick in the office. Only, mind you, matte. After all, she is the one who is able to withstand the image in uniform style and do not draw undue attention to the fashionista. But the “multi-colored girlfriend” of girls has its pros and cons. (Read also).

Due to matte lipstick You can not vulgarly enlarge your lips - you just need to go a little beyond the contour. And a sexy image is guaranteed.
The lipstick does not feel uncomfortable on the lips. After all, it does not stick, but, on the contrary, makes the lips moisturized and well-groomed.
In cold weather, lipstick is a faithful friend that will not only emphasize beauty, but also, due to the fats that are included in its composition, will provide lip care.

And the last moment - frequent use lipstick dries out your lips. Therefore, try to alternate both gloss and lipstick for different occasions. After all, women tend to change. And if it’s not easy for you to try on new looks every time, start with your lips. And then, you see, pleasant events will “come” into life.

Lipstick - cosmetic product for coloring, protecting and moisturizing lips.

Lipstick was first used in Mesopotamia approximately 5,000 years ago. Lip paint was already known in Ancient Egypt. There it was made from red pigment, beeswax and animal fat. Egyptian women preferred dark shades of lipstick.
The range of modern lipsticks amazes with a palette of shades - from transparent, colorless hygienic lipsticks to provocative lipsticks in blue, green and black shades.
There are several types of lipstick at the moment: Moisturizing, nourishing, long-lasting, hygienic, matte, satin, glossy, increasing volume, visually whitening teeth.

Wax, which is part of the composition and is the main component, determines the shape of the lipstick, ensures its strength and plasticity, it is thanks to its addition that the lipstick maintains the cylinder shape that is familiar to all girls. This ensures easy application of lipstick without the use of any additional brushes or devices.

The authorship of lipstick in a tube belongs to the firm GUERLAIN. The appearance of the first lipstick in metal packaging (in the USA, 1915) gave rise to a “lipstick boom”, because it became convenient to use lipstick anywhere, not just at home.

Modern women can boast of a solid arsenal, a selection of different brands, shades and types of lipstick.

British scientists conducted a study and found that the average man eats 8 kilograms of lipstick per year, which enters his body during a kiss. It is terrible to imagine the result of such a study among women. Scientists also disagree about the harm from lipstick - frequent use of lipstick leads to the accumulation of coloring substances during internal organs, also the use of lipstick can lead to gastrointestinal disorders, various allergic reactions and other digestive problems.

But nothing can scare modern beauties, and cosmetic industry does not stand still and improves its products - lipstick not only colors lips but also moisturizes the skin, softens and protects lips from negative impact environment.

LIP GLOSS

Lip gloss is a cosmetic product that gives lips shine and a subtle color.

Most often, lip gloss is a liquid consistency. It can be completely transparent or translucent, but can also contain glitter or particles that give the lips a metallic shine, a frosted effect or a fuller lip effect (using the collagen it contains).

The first lip gloss was a product of the company " Max Factor" presented to the public in 1932. The original formula was sold until 2003, when Procter and Gamble stopped producing and selling it.

Like lipstick, lip gloss is available in various forms- in small bottles with an applicator or brush, with which the gloss is applied to the lips, or in tubes, as well as in jars. In this case, the glitter is applied with your fingertips.
The advantage of gloss is that it has a more “juicy” consistency compared to lipstick, and its big advantage is that it applies easier and lies smoother than lipstick.
But its disadvantage is that it is more plastic and less durable. Gloss often spreads and is quickly erased from the surface of the lips, while lipstick, especially “long-lasting” lipstick, lasts for several hours without correction.

Mostly lip gloss is preferred young girls, since it is associated with a young, sexy image, but older women also use lip gloss due to its ability to disguise fine wrinkles on the lips.

Special moisturizing components are also added to the lip gloss to care for the lips. For example, lip gloss may contain cocoa, flax, coconut oils, green tea extract and vitamins, as well as substances that provide protection from harmful ultraviolet radiation.

Which is better is something every girl chooses for herself, but a real woman will always have both in her cosmetic bag, and what and when to use is a matter of taste.
