5 Glossy Lip Products That Aren’t Sticky
January 12, 2021
We love lip gloss for its versatility, ability to take any makeup look up a notch and nourishing formulas that can help keep your lips moisturized throughout the day. What we don’t love about some lip gloss formulas is the stickiness and tendency to wear off quickly. Luckily, there are plenty of options that offer all of the benefits and none of the downsides. From lip oils, pencils and serums, we rounded up our favorite innovative, shine-inducing formulas to try, whether you’re a lip gloss stan or a skeptic.
