This grown-up lip gloss is the perfect shade for summer
It is hot at the time of writing, and I hope still hot at the time of reading, which for me, when it comes to make-up, means paring everything right back. (If skin tints or balms aren't quite enough, consider this your reminder about the brilliance of Nars Soft Matte Concealer, £28, which will conceal anything, anywhere on your face, and still look completely natural — even a dot of black pen, which is how I test concealers these days.) I like a shiny lip in summer, especially on an otherwise minimally adorned face, but I passionately dislike stickiness. I don't even like things looking sticky. Sadly, the line between 'glossy' and 'sticky' is often blurred. But the other day I was fossicking about in the Boots at Liverpool Street Station in London and was reminded of the existence of Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer (£19, which is an 'old' product, certainly pre-2020. So I bought some, in the shade Fenty Glow, which is a sort of pinkish nude that is also slightly golden and would suit anybody. I thought it might look nice in the heat. And I was right. This is the perfect lip thing to take with you on holiday, or indeed to stick on (except it's not sticky) if you're going to lie about in the park.
