Pigmented Lipglosses | 2021 Editor's Favorites

Christine — Sat, 01 Jan 2022 21:00:00 +0000

Next up, my favorite more pigmented glosses from what I reviewed this past year (just over 70 shades in total for gloss). This is another short ‘n’ sweet list of top picks!

If you’re unfamiliar with how I like to do my year-end favorites, here’s the low down: I pull from the products I reviewed in 2021, regardless of whether they were new, limited edition, or an established range I’ve only just gotten around to reviewing. These are personal favorites, so they may or may not be the highest rated products reviewed during the year (though they will tend to be better rated, naturally!). (You can check out the best of 2020 posts if you missed last year’s.)
