If you are a 90’s baby, you should remember the good old days when your favorite pop star always had lip gloss on. And since the invention of liquid lipstick, we haven’t reached for a lip gloss much but it seems like that is about to change soon.

But even with the recent wave of lip gloss releases, there are still some who are reluctant to hop onto the bandwagon. And if you are one of those, here is a pros and cons breakdown just for you. 😉

Pro #1: Natural pout

If you’ve always wanted to achieve the natural pout all Instagram models seem to achieve effortlessly, the answer to their secret is right here: Lip gloss. It gives the illusion of fuller lips with all the shine and shimmer that comes with it.

Pro #2: Say goodbye to chapped lips forever

With lip gloss back in trend, you never have to worry about having chapped lips ever again. But if you are not ready to move on from your holy grail liquid lipstick, here is a tip: layer your lip gloss on top of your liquid lip! This way you can have best of both worlds. 😉

Con #1: Touching up constantly

If you hate worrying about your makeup while you are outside having fun with your friends, lip gloss is probably not the one for you. With just a thin layer, long lasting is not one of the many good things that follows lip gloss.

Con #2: R.I.P hair

You can’t have the best of both worlds. If you are bffs with lip gloss, you can’t be bffs with the wind or your hair. Be ready to deal with your hair sticking to your face any time there’s wind.

So, now that you know all about lip gloss, are you jumping onto the bandwagon? Find a lot of best lip balm or lip gloss at Zalora Beauty from popular brands like Rhode lip tint, Dior Lip balm, Chuck’s and many more.
