Lip glosses have come and gone from the slip pocket inside my purse. It’s valuable, easy-to-access actual property — holding the wonder merchandise I by no means go away the home with out. (That, and the occasional neatly folded receipt.) That’s the place I completely maintain my Fenty Magnificence Gloss Bomb Ice Cooling Lip Luminizer.

I first tried out this iteration of the model’s Gloss Bomb throughout Better of Magnificence testing. I had reached for it for 2 causes: First, it was a hexagonal tube of blue goo in a sea of reds and pinks. Second, it was emblazoned with the phrase “Ice” in holographic letters throughout it.

It is available in only one shade — Chilly Coronary heart’d — and is likely one of the model’s greatest sellers. Fenty Magnificence claims it “immediately makes lips look fuller.” Beauty chemist Ginger King says that doesn’t do something to lips to make them bodily greater, however it as a substitute incorporates styrene copolymers to coat them, making them really feel and seem ever-so-slightly fuller. (King provides that conventional lip plumpers use capsicum or vanillyl butyl ether to extend blood movement. That’s what causes the spicy — and generally painful — feeling while you apply them.)

To make use of it, I pull its chubby doe foot applicator out of its tube and easily sweep it on. It slides throughout my lips feeling thick and balmy (however not sticky or cheesy) as I smack and rub them collectively. It has a cooling sensation (brought on by peppermint oil and menthol) and highlights the curves of my lips, making them seem extra-luscious (and extra-sexy) with a mirror-like shine.

As an added bonus, this product “makes use of shea butter this helps to nourish the lips,” says Marisa Garshick, MD, board-certified dermatologist. She provides that the gloss additionally “helps defend towards dry, cracked or chapped lips.” It really works laborious and I’ll be protecting it additional shut through the winter.
