How do you wear red Lipgloss?

There are a few different ways you can wear a red lipglass...

You can apply a red lipgloss straight onto the lip by using the applicator it comes with. For a sheer red gloss look you could apply our Powerglass Plumping Lipgloss in the shade Plump Up The Jam all over the lip for a gorgeous cherry red pout! Our Powerglass Plumping Lipglosses are a high-shine lip gloss that instantly volumizes with maximum hydration and long-term plumping power. The gloss evenly coats the lips, fills in lip lines and provides sheer colour with 4 hours of lasting, non-sticky shine. The innovative formula features a proprietary tingling complex with ginger, capsicum and menthol crystals that increases stimulation and hydration to lips for rapid volume with a sweet, subtle sting and intense cooling effect. Meanwhile, hyaluronic acid, avocado and coconut oils flood lips with moisture. What’s more, an original curvaceous applicator perfectly hugs top and bottom lips with total precision.

If you prefer a gloss with more opacity you could try our Patent Paint Lip Lacquer in Latex Love. These glosses are an innovative non-sticky, weightless liquid lip colour that combines the highly saturated, vibrant colour of a lipstick with the powerful 3D shine of a lip gloss. Thanks to an innovative formula, this creamy, non-sticky, moisturizing lacquered colour doesn’t bleed or feather. They give immediate and long-term hydration that lasts for up to eight hours and stay colour true for up to four hours.

Another way you can wear red lipgloss is to team it with a lip pencil, such as Cherry. A pencil is designed for shaping, lining or filling in the lip, they have a smooth, creamy texture that is perfect for outlining the lips or colouring them in. Use Cherry a over the lips for an inital pop of colour and then apply your red lip gloss on top. It'll help the gloss to stay on that little bit longer whilst intensifying the colour and giving the look a crisper finish.

You can also pop lip gloss on top of a lipstick too to give your lip colour a really beautiful, intense glossy finish. Try teaming Cherry Lip Pencil with Russian Red Matte Lipstick and then applying the matching Russian Red Lipglass on to top for a beautiful fierce glossy pout!
