Since matte lipsticks faded into the background, and gloss became the main lip trend, covering lips with glosses and thick balms is a must do for every beautyholic and makeup artist. For example, imitating the effect of jelly.

What is the jelly effect on lips?

Lip makeup with a jelly effect is a bright, beautiful and, one might even say, delicious makeup solution that is definitely worth repeating at least once in your work. For example, for creative photography, stage makeup or your own portfolio of work. This version of makeup implies a moist, jelly-like coating on the lips, which can be created using various cosmetic products.

The trend for “jelly” lips, like many other innovations, came to us from South Korea. Local brands even have special tints with a jelly effect, which give the lips both tint and the desired wet effect. Koreans also produce moisturizing balms and lip glosses in very dense textures, which allow them to imitate jelly on the lips.

However, you can create lip makeup with a jelly effect using more familiar products - the usual dense transparent gloss. Please note that it must be viscous, viscous and tightly envelop the lips - only in this case will it be possible to achieve the desired result. Lip products with a volumizing effect are best suited for this purpose.

How to create lip makeup with a jelly effect?

Pre-treat your lips with a scrub and apply a balm that will work while you work on other makeup details.

Start with face and eye makeup to complete the overall look. Pay special attention to the tone - it should be perfect, especially if you plan to use bright shades of lipstick. The next step is to work on the skin around the lips, for example, using a light concealer. Add a drop of highlighter to the swoosh above your upper lip.

If you want to create a colorful lip make-up, draw a contour with a pencil and apply long-lasting lipstick in the desired color. Apply several layers of clear gloss on top. The amount of product depends on the effect you want to achieve. The more shine, the more voluminous the coverage.

If you want to combine the effect of jelly and kissed lips, skip the contour step and apply lipstick with your fingers to make it look as natural as possible. After that, we apply a thick gloss and take a million photos to capture this beauty!
