Fact: We don't have to tell you that the holiday season also doubles as the unofficial kissing season.
We also don't have to remind you that the cold weather also equals dry skin and flaky unkissable lips are a big part of that scenario. Sure, you can slather your lips in a hydrating basic balm but to keep you in the holiday spirit, a plumping lip gloss is the way to go. Not only does the high shine make your lips look luscious as can be, the tingly ingredients (like collagen, peppermint, menthol and more) actually work to make your lips appear slightly larger—sans injections.
Now who can be mad at that?
