I love lipstick so much that the only time I reach for a gloss is when my look is all about the eyes. I guess I just like the pigment lipsticks provide as opposed to the wet look for lips.

However I’m really liking VOTRE VU’s new Lip Lustre glosses right now. They contain vitamin E and green tea extract, so they help condition while giving your pout some gloss and they include Titanium Dioxide, which is the fancy ingredient name for sunscreen.

And this wears nicely and more like a tinted balm than a gloss and it’s not sticky at all. All the more reason to think this is more of a balmy-gloss than a straight up gloss.
