Lip glaze:
Physical form: Lip glaze takes the form of a slender cylinder and usually comes with a lip brush to facilitate user application. Its interior has a liquid texture and is a slightly viscous liquid.

Effect difference
Coverage and color saturation:
Lipstick: Lipstick has relatively strong concealing power and can better cover up the original color and blemishes of the lips.

Lip glaze: The color saturation of lip glaze is generally higher than that of Lipstick. Whether it is matte or moisturizing lip glaze, it can present a bright and rich color effect. In addition, because the liquid texture of the lip gloss can better adhere to the surface of the lips, its concealing power is also good.
Durability and moisturizing properties:
Lipstick: Although the durability of matte Lipstick is relatively good, the longevity of moisturizing Lipstick may be worse. The moisturizing effect of Lipstick mainly depends on the moisturizing factors in its ingredients, but overall, Lipstick may not be as moisturizing as lip glaze.
Lip Gloss: The liquid texture of the lip gloss allows it to adhere perfectly to the lips, forming a long-lasting film. Therefore, whether it is matte or moisturizing lip gloss, it has good durability.

Lipstick: Lipstick is more suitable for modifying lip shape and color due to its solid texture and strong concealing power. Whether it is daily makeup or formal occasions, Lipstick can provide stable makeup results. However, for occasions where makeup needs to be maintained for a long time, Lipstick may need to be reapplied frequently.
Lip glaze: Lip glaze is popular for its high color saturation, good durability and moisturizing properties. Not only does it create a vibrant, long-lasting lip look, it also effectively moisturizes your lips. Therefore, lip gloss is more suitable for occasions where the makeup effect needs to be maintained for a long time, such as dinners, parties, etc. At the same time, its rich color choices also make lip gloss one of the first choices for fashionistas and beauty enthusiasts.
