History of Lip Gloss
Early 1900
Lip Gloss’s origins can be traced back to the 1900s when Max Factor created it with the intention of enhancing the sensual and provocative appearance of actresses in silent films. (1) With its success in Hollywood and the rising interest of women towards it, the father of lip gloss got inspired to sell and popularise the product.
1970s
A generous application of lip gloss on the lips to make them look bright and seductive became one of the favourite makeup trends for women in the 1960s, making it the most popular makeup essential. In the 1970s the invention of fruity and flavoured lip glosses was another prominent reason behind the growing popularity of lip gloss among younger women.
1980s
Its admiration grew throughout the 1980s when various TV and movie stars used to set the fashion trend, and it started to be valued for other qualities as well. For instance, it was used as a multitasking makeup product, like a lip balm to protect against atmospheric agents and was preferred over lipstick for the natural feel it gave to lip makeup.
Present Times
The use of lip gloss, whether coloured or neutral, matte or glossy has grown in popularity in recent years. You may get everything from transparent to coloured to glittery to glossy to very glossy and non-stick lip gloss.

Uses of Lip Gloss
In Winters
- If your lips do become chapped during winter, applying a lip gloss infused with macadamia oil will help the skin on your lips heal more quickly and effectively. Additionally, it fills in the lip cracks, making them less prone to infection and discomfort. Go for lip gloss online shopping at Faces Canada.
- Lip skin is fragile and lacks sebaceous glands, so it does not naturally produce moisturizing oils like the rest of your skin. This exposes it to external elements, making it vulnerable to weather-related harm. A hydrating lip gloss comes to the rescue in such situations. It hydrates your lips regardless of how dry or chilly the weather is.
In Summers
- You'll eventually tend to appear older than your actual age if your lips are dry and look cracked due to lack of hydration during summers. Applying a hydrating lip gloss makes your lips look soft and supple and takes years off of your appearance, making you look younger.
- Love matte lipstick but detest how dry it is? We understand your love and hate connection with your lips. A non-sticky lip gloss will perk up your lips, soften them, and guarantee that your matte lipstick applies smoothly without making your lips look dry.
- Summers call for dry weather and lack of moisture can easily cause the thin protective layer of lips to peel off, resulting in dry, chapped lips. Choosing a lip gloss online that has hydrating and nourishing elements like macadamia oil can help the skin on your lips revive and look more plump and soft.

Hydrating Lip Gloss Tips and Hacks
-
Exfoliate Your Lips
It is always recommended to exfoliate your lips before applying any lip care product. Exfoliation helps in creating a smooth canvas to apply the products easily and gives a perfect finish. Exfoliate using lemon and walnut lip scrub from Faces Canada and wipe off the remains with the help of a damp cloth. The process naturally helps in giving your lips a plump look.
-
Make it Stay Long With a Setting Powder
To make your lip gloss remain longer, use a lip liner or lipstick that matches the colour tone of your lip gloss. For added staying power, softly set your lips with translucent powder before applying the gloss. Buy the best lip gloss online in India at Faces Canada.
-
Do Not Rub It Against Your Lips
Rubbing your lips together can push the lip gloss outwards messing up the whole look. The same goes for licking your lips; try to limit this as much as you can. Always have your gloss with you if you are going to an event so you may touch it up if necessary, especially if you plan to eat.
