But take a gander outside your comfort zone and you\u2019ll find an array of lip products waiting to adorn your pretty pout.<\/p> <p>From lip glosses to lip balms, lip stains and lip sticks, it can get a little confusing figuring out which product to use for which look. Well, instead of worrying about it, here's our brief rundown of the different types.<\/p> <h2> <span>LIP GLOSS<\/span> <\/h2> <p>Say lip gloss and you may immediately think of sticky glittery <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/beauty\/whats-new\/mac-x-giambattista-valli-collection-debuts-5-vibrant-shades-summer-104858.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gloss <\/a>that comes out of a tube and was <em>de rigueur<\/em> for every celebrity in the late 90s to the early 2000s. But you\u2019ll be happy to know that the once tacky lip gloss has come a long way. There are many lip glosses that make your lips look fuller and more luscious without that overly shiny or sticky feel. Some even come with SPF protection and tints for a natural sheer look. However, you might still want to hold on to your hair, if the wind is particularly strong as there is nothing worse than getting your hair stuck onto your lip gloss.<\/p> <h2> <span>LIP BALM<\/span> <\/h2> <p>From simple <strong>Vaseline<\/strong> to fancy stuff made from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/beauty\/beauty-buys\/les-baby-lips-font-rentree-electro-34410.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">shea butter<\/a>, lip balms are essentials in your makeup pouch. It keeps your lips moist and smooth as it prevents them from drying out and a true\u00a0lifesaver especially when you\u2019re on a plane. While this doesn\u2019t add much colour to your face, it does come in all kinds of delicious flavours from fruit to chocolate.<\/p> <h2> <span>LIPSTICK<\/span> <\/h2> <p>This is the good ol\u2019 faithful we\u2019ve been talking about. The classic matte red lip comes to mind when we think of a good <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/beauty\/face-of-the-day-beauty\/fotd-j-los-ruby-red-lips-53772.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lipstick<\/a>. But matte is not the only way to go these days as there\u2019s a wide range of finishes on the market. Personally, we still like matte, but we are partial to the shimmery satin finish and the frosty lustre finish too.<\/p> <h2> <span>LIP STAIN<\/span> <\/h2> <p>This immediately makes us think of the famous <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/beauty\/beauty-buys\/staff-picks-marie-france-asias-favourite-makeup-buy-42071.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Benetint <\/a>range from <strong>Benefit<\/strong>. Lip stains are tricky to apply and they well, stain if you aren\u2019t careful. A little goes a long way and once they\u2019ve set, they last up to 12 hours a day. Some stains are so long-lasting, you\u2019d still need an oil-based makeup remover to get them off. However, stains can be quite drying so to avoid a chapped mouth, apply a layer of balm beneath first. Steady hands are important when using lip stains as the application has to be perfect.<\/p> <p>Now that you're armed with all those nuggets of information, it's time to venture forth on a lip spree with our selection of products in the gallery above!<\/p> <p><em>Cheryl Lee<\/em><\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From lipsticks to lip balms and glosses, do you often wonder which product is used for what?
