Shimmer Lip Gloss: application instructions

18.04.2021

The fashion show of the Prada spring-summer collection was remembered not only by the outfits but also by the unusual beauty images. Instead of a monochromatic lipstick, make-up artists applied a coating of gold glitter to the lips of the models. Shimmer is still in trend. But it is important to remember that such lip gloss immediately becomes a remarkable part of the outer image, so you should be careful with all the other details. Finding out how to use a shimmer when creating makeup.

1) The easiest way is to diversify your daytime look.

Smooth skin tone and refresh your skin tone with blush. For example, using Cheek Heat from Maybelline New York.

Tint your eyelashes with your favorite mascara, and apply gloss with a shimmer on your lips. This will draw attention to the lips, but the look will not be too flashy.

2) Shimmer gloss can be useful for those who like to experiment.

Apply a thick layer of lipstick in a bright shade to the lips, and add a drop of shimmery gloss in the middle. For example, Lip Lingerie Glitter from NYX Professional Makeup.

Thanks to this technique, a seductive glare will appear on the lips.

3) Lip gloss is a multifunctional product that many makeup artists do not use according to the instructions. 

For example, you can create the effect of wet eyelids with lip gloss. If you're ready to try this extraordinary eye makeup option, apply a little shimmering lip gloss over the eyeshadow. To avoid the feeling of discomfort, use it not on the moving eyelid, but under the eyebrow - then, blinking, you will not feel unpleasant stickiness. But you have to be careful - some lip glosses can cause allergies because they are not intended to be used in the area around the eyes.
