Four of the best lip products for a perfect summer pout
Gucci Beauty, Chanel, Fenty Beauty by Rihanna and Hourglass offer bold shades in a selection of finishes – there’s something for everyone
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna’s Poutsicle Juicy Satin Lipstick (HK$170) comes in seven dare-to-wear-me shades, with cheeky names such as Alpha Doll (tropical orchid), Motorboat (electric sky blue) and Go Deep (teal blue).
After a hiatus, Gucci has relaunched its beauty line with a lipstick collection that is available in three finishes – Rouge à Lèvres Satin, Rouge à Lèvres Voile and Baume à Lèvres (HK$305 each). Also notable is its campaign, which embraces imperfections by eschewing glamorous, airbrushed pouts in favour of toothy grins.
Hourglass is bringing back the 1990s vibe with its Unreal High Shine Volumizing Lip Gloss (HK$270), which has a non-sticky formula, so it will not be a glue trap for your hair. Promising a long-lasting lustre with shimmers and pearls, it is everything we love about gloss without the mess.
Chanel’s Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue (HK$290) contains an intense liquid lipstick paired with a matching gloss. The liquid colour does feel sticky upon application and takes a while to dry, but once it does, the colour is there to stay, lasting through meals and drinks.
