LADIES: Lipstick or lipgloss?

    • Gold Top Dog
    vitamin E lip balm that has a glossy finish to it.
    My lips (and skin in general) are so sensitive. Anything else makes them peel and then I bite the skin off and they bleed.

    WOW!  I am definitely in the minority.  I prefer lipstick.  I don't wear it a lot, but I don't even have any lip gloss.  I wear the colorstay lipstick so when do I put it on, it is just a once a day event.

    I've used lip stain before. It is nice because I didn't feel like I had stuff on my lips.  Normally I dont wear lip color, but if I do it is lip gloss.

    Yeah, I heard that it looked and felt more natural.

    In my 20's it was lipstick, now it's ONLY lipgloss.  I think lipstick and powder make me look older than I am and heaven knows I'm not trying to do that!!!!  I am all about the dewy, youthful face.  I also wear far less makeup at 38 than I did at 28 and, if I do say so myself, I look better now than I did 10 years ago (thank you Botox!)

    Neither!  I'm not the makeup type at all...and I only use chapstick when I actually need to because my lips are dry.  [:)]

    I have oily skin, so the shinyness of lip gloss is out for me.  I wear a layer of chapstick and then lipstick on top of that for work or going out.  I need the tint.  At home I just wear chapstick most of the time, maybe a tiny dot of lipstick blended in for a little color.

    I am addicted to lip gloss. I spent way too much money on it. I have a ton that I haven't even used. What I do right now though is wear lipstick with lip gloss over it. I'm very picky about my lip gloss. It can't have a weird smell or be sticky at all. It's very hard for me to find one that isn't sticky. I have also tried lip stain and I liked it. I didn't feel like I had anything on and when I put my lip gloss over it, it looked even better.

    I'm addicted to lipgloss. I have like 50 different shades. Lipstick seems to dry my lips right out, I hate the way it feels.
    • Gold Top Dog
    Definitely lipgloss! I'm more of a casual person and I like it because it's more subtle, plus it makes my lips look fuller. [;)] MAC Lipglass is absolutely THE best I've ever used.

    I use Clinique lipstick and find it very moist. Most glosses just feel too greasy on me. If I start to feeling a little dry with some brands I'll just put some clear Chapstick on top, but the Clinique is usually okay.
