Temptalia Asks You – Do you like your lipgloss sheer or pigmented?

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Do you like your lipgloss sheer or pigmented? Why?

.

I like them to be pigmented enough to show up on my lips when I wear it alone, but I don’t need it to be like a liquid lipstick.

I like both, depending on my mood and my look for that day.

Both. I like to see some shimmer and a little bit of color, but I also like more solid colors.

Both. It depends on my eye look. Sometimes I don't need a pigmented lip because I'm very over dramatic, but sometimes I do want that pigmented look when I want to be really "out there" with it. I like both.

I like it pigmented but I dont mind it being semi transparent either.

I want it pretty pigmented, and VERY shimmery.

I only like semi pigmented. When its too pigmented it doesnt look quite right on me(IMO). I find myself having better luck with lustreglasses for this reason.

I like both, pigmented to wear alone and sheer to wear over a lip liner.

I like mine to be pigmented because my lips are a rather darkish plum and yet, my skin is way too fair. So to go for the 'natural' look, I need as pigmented as it gets.

Either, it depends on the look I want to achieve. Sometimes all I want is a sheer wash of color to modify a lipstick. Sometimes pigmented since it will be easier to wear on its own.

Glosses have to be opaque for me... I have reddddddddd lips.

I prefer pigmented lipglosses. I like the dazzleglasses a lot because they're pigmented, but wear very well over lipsticks too.

Pigmented... I tend to not have time to do a full look, so everything is neutral outside of my lips. Pigmented is the best option for me and I like the simplicity of a gloss.

Most of the time, I go for more pigmented. So then if i don't have time to do perfect lips, i just put on some gloss quickly. I'm waiting to try Illamasqua's Intense lipgloss. People say they're really nice so I guess I'll try them

I like them all, haha ;D I like glosses that are pigmented enough to wear by themselves, but I love layering them over lipsticks for different effects as well :)

I like semi-sheer, semi-pigmented w/alot of shimmer.

I also like my lipgloss to be pgimented but not more like the Lychee Luxe, that's enough pigment for me if I wear the l/g alone. If I want to wear it over a lipstick I like my lipgloss to be less pigmented, a bit like Young thing for example.

I like sheer over lipstick but also I like lip glosses that are pigmented enough to wear on their own.
