For most of us, our introduction to beauty products began with a tube of lip gloss. Its high shine colors were a staple in our middle school lockers, but eventually replaced with lipstick.
Over time, the latter has evolved to include its own rolodex of variations, leaving gloss in the dust and our faint memories. We’ve spent the past couple of years infatuated with matte formulas in particular, but there aren’t enough lip kits in the world to block our need for nostalgia.
Lip gloss has made an unexpected comeback and now, a host of our favorite brands–like Glossier– are getting in on the craze.
If you’re here for the latest beauty resurgence, pucker up to five other brands that are selling the latest and greatest lip gloss lines.
