Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but for us wintertime gals, it’s also lip gloss. There’s nothing worse than having chapped, cracked, dry lips, and a good-quality lip gloss is a must. But what’s really fun is all the great flavours that are out there, some of which are conventional and others that are cool and completely out-of-the-box. It seems we want lip relief that is not only effective but yummy too, and here are a few that you’ll love. —Jennifer Cox
You had me at Merlot! Hooker Lips’ glosses are known for this wide range of delectable flavours, including Dill Pickle, Birthday Cake, Caramel Popcorn, Fried Bacon, and this one, Merlot ($4). They are all handmade and crafted in British Columbia, and manufactured in small batches so the colours and flavours are exact. They’re also super moisturizing, with palm, olive and coconut oils.
For some juiciness there’s Lancôme’s Juicy Tubes ($24). They offer high-shine and lots of moisture for feel-good texture. And they have all the shimmer and shine you’d want in a great lip gloss to give you fuller-looking lips. Plus, they’re really nummy.
You’ll love the sweet and festive scents of the Bath and Body Works’ Jolly Gingerbread Village lip gloss ($6). It goes on smoothly and will give those puckers a taste of yummy gingerbread cookie goodness. There are other delicious flavours in this collection, like vanilla, twisted peppermint, and Bright Christmas Morning.
If you’re a soft drink fanatic, get your hands on the Coca Cola Party Pack ($11.50). You can enjoy the authentic taste of your favorite beverage flavours in a lip gloss that’s as good for your lips as it tastes. They have smoothing moisture and lip refreshment in one. And with six flavours to choose from, you can take one with you wherever you go.
The Perfect Pout So Pouty Lip Gloss Balm from Wet N Wild ($6, available at Walmart Canada). Pump up your pout to perfectly plump with this two-in-one tinted moisturizing lip gloss balm. A hydrating trio of glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and vegetable collagen helps to moisturize the lips while making them appear smoother and firmer.
