It’s a favorite in the makeup industry and it keeps coming back for a reason – sporting uber-glossy lids and lips can be a winning combination that takes any pedestrian look to a cat-walk level.

Achieving the right touch with your eye makeup is probably the trickier part of the process, but you can pull this off by either using a glossy eyeshadow formula or by sweeping on a layer of your favorite powder shadow and topping it off with a touch of vaseline.

If you prefer the all-in-one method, use Jane Iredale’s Eye Gloss in any of six lovely earthy shades. Otherwise, you’ve got a world of shadows to choose from, not least of which includes GloMinerals gloEye Shadow, which offers rich hues in a crease-free formula.

Lip-gloss will be fairly a cinch – just be sure to choose the right product for high-gloss shine. Look for lip glosses that feature a clear or transparent formula. ModelCo Lip Lights Ultra Shine Lip Gloss offers great color and an ultra-shiny finish.
