Lip
gloss is a cosmetic product used primarily by teenage
girls and women to give the lips shine and subtle
color. Lip gloss is distributed as a viscous liquid
or a soft solid. It can be transluscent (clear lip
gloss can be layered over regular lipstick for extra
shine) or various shades of opacity, including frosted,
glittery and metallic looks.
Lip gloss is popular
with teenage girls due to its ease of application
and flirty look. For some young teenagers, it is used
as a "starter" make-up. Although the look
is mostly associated with youth, companies like Stila,
MAC, and Lip Ink International do make lip
glosses for high-end consumers. Some of these
glosses contain collagen or other "plumping"
agents. Lip gloss is vital to the mod make-up style
exemplified by Twiggy, an eyeliner
and mascara-heavy look that requires sheer, "dewy"
colors elsewhere. It can be paired with well-blended
gel or cream blush to achieve this look.

Gloss,
like lipstick, can be applied different ways. The
most popular way is a tube, which typically has a
rounded or sloped application surface meant to contour
to the lips. It can also be squeezed onto one's finger
and applied evenly. Other liquid glosses come in cylinderic
containers, with a cosmetic wand used to apply the
gloss. Soft solid glosses can come in pots and panels,
which are used with fingers or a lipstick brush, or
tubes, which are used like lipstick.
Though lip
gloss is most frequenly used as a cosmetic, it
is also used as a moisturizer
