Face gloss is what every girl needs in her makeup bag

 

Bare-faced makeup is very much a thing RN and we love it. The latest must-have for your #wokeuplikethis glow is face gloss. Yep, you heard it right. Turns out gloss is for more than just your lips. Brands like Milk Makeup and Make Beauty have released clear, nonsticky balms that are perfect for effortlessly dewy skin.

 

Face gloss is *super* easy to use, too. Simply pat along your cheekbones (where you would typically use highlighter) with your fingertips or a brush. Dab some on the bridge of your nose and cupid's bow for extra radiance. You can use it over top of your fave foundation or apply it to clean, bare skin. Not sure you're ready for all-out shine? Swipe face gloss on your lids in place of eyeshadow or use it to amp up your lip color.

Our in-a-pinch tip: If you love the look of dewy skin but don't have time to run to Sephora (your date is picking you up in 10 minutes!), you can sub coconut oil, lip gloss or every off-duty model's favorite, Vaseline. Just be careful not to go overboard. The same rule that applies to the no-makeup trend applies to face gloss: less is more.
