If you find your lip gloss feels too thick or sticky, you can use a simple beauty hack to improve its texture and wearability.
Reduce Thick or Sticky Lip Gloss Feel with This Hack
A common complaint about some lip glosses is their heavy, thick, or sticky consistency. This can make them uncomfortable to wear. While thickness relates to viscosity, stickiness is often a related sensory issue that can be improved.
Based on one beauty hack, you can effectively tackle the stickiness often associated with thick glosses by incorporating a clear gloss.
The Clear Gloss Method for Less Stickiness
According to one method shared, mixing a clear gloss with your existing one can help reduce its stickiness, thereby improving its feel on the lips.
Here's how the referenced hack suggests doing it:
- Choose a clear gloss. The reference notes that "Glossiest is probably the best since it is clear."
- Mix it with the gloss you want to make less sticky.
- Apply the mixture to your lips. You want to put around three coats.
- Blend your lips. Together.
- The result is that you have flattened the stickiness.
By following these steps, you can potentially make a thick lip gloss feel much more comfortable and less sticky on your lips, leading to a smoother application and wear.
