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 sheer over lipstick but also I like lip glosses that are pigmented enough to wear on their own.
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 semi-sheer, semi-pigmented w/alot of shimmer.
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 🙂
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
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.
I prefer pigmented lipglosses. I like the dazzleglasses a lot because they’re pigmented, but wear very well over lipsticks too.
Glosses have to be opaque for me… I have reddddddddd lips.
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.
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.
I like both, pigmented to wear alone and sheer to wear over a lip liner.
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 want it pretty pigmented, and VERY shimmery.
I prefer pigmented.
I like it pigmented but I dont mind it being semi transparent either.
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.
Both. I like to see some shimmer and a little bit of color, but I also like more solid colors.
Semi pigmentation for me.
I like both, depending on my mood and my look for that day.
