Lipstick and lip pencil

I’d hardly lose the bet if I said most of you already know about lipstick, but I’ve talked to enough women to know that my next sentence needs to be said. Luckily, it’s not complicated: If you’re wearing makeup, your lips need lipstick—not lip gloss, but lipstick. Lip gloss doesn’t last, but lipstick does. Lip gloss provides a sheer, temporary look that can be great, but it doesn’t go with a full or classic makeup look. Lipstick (cream, matte, or semi-matte lipstick) provides a polished and put-together look that can last at least until your second cup of coffee. If your lips are naked while your eyes and cheeks are made up, you will look like you forgot you had a mouth when applying your makeup. For the sake of balance, remember lipstick.
