Take care of our lips is one of woman concern. Sometimes, I confuse to pick one of lipgloss, lipbalm or lipstick. I don't know what exactly the difference between three of them. Somebody told me that it will be better to put lipbalm before lipstick. Is it true? How about the color? We know that some lipgloss has color and some of them has plain color. Give me some tips :D Thank you.

I only use them separately, I don't mix different kinds of lip products together, because these days, you can easily find lip gloss with some color (so you don't need lipstick), and hydrating lipsticks. So I let each product work for itself, it has always worked for me.

i put lip balm first to soften my lips and stay away from dry skin. then i put a lipstick and a lip gloss if i only feel like to. it depends but mostly i just use lip balm and lipstick mixed together.

I use a lipgloss that is a sparkly and brownish color first, and then add my lipstick on top. My lipstick is kind of a bold peachy-pink color that doesn't look very good on it's on, plus it dries my lips too much. I tried using it with balm, but it was too waxy.

Taking care of your lips is same as taking of your hair. There are many things you can do to get a soft and beautiful lips. I dont use lipstick since my lips are very sensitive. I use chapstick for me and vaseline. Brush your lips every morning with a soft toothbrush and dab vaseline to it. If you prefer chapstick that would be nice too. At home, i use vaseline, but when i go out i use chapstick. Whenever i go to bed, i always put vaseline in my lips, or sometimes i will choose olive oil as its a great moisturizer. many people noticed that my lips are soft and pinkish, and i always tell them that i do take care of it:) Happy mylotting!!!

Lip gloss has a more moist or wet look, lipstick comes in a stick and lip balm is clear. I use lip calm daily and more than once. And yes, lip balm is great for a primer on your lips then when it's super soft add your tint. Could be a lipstick or lip gloss. I like lip gloss better.

well its up to you which to choose.my advise for you will be 1st try out all three separately and combine two and use,whichever looks good on you use it.... like you can use lip balm or lip gloss before lipstick.......it looks good and if you want a bit of heavy makeup you can use lipgloss then lipstick and then again lipgloss lips looks shiny and good....i do that lip gloss can be colorless and colorful too its up to your taste and choice you choose them have a good day hope it will help you
