Guerlain Gel-Gloss Mirror Effect

We have, over the years, been asked to write features about ‘prepping for parties’, sharing countdowns of what to do if you’ve an hour, half an hour, 15 minutes to get ready for an evening out.

Well, either the world has speeded up since then or life’s just become much more complicated, because these days, we’re lucky if we can find time to change out of trainers into heels, and put on a lip gloss. Half an hour to relax in a bath, before heading to cocktails…? We can just dream on.

This, however, is the perfect desk-to-dinner switch-up. One slick of Guerlain Gel-Gloss Mirror Effect and you’re partified, whether that’s over bare lips or using a lipstick as a base. Shimmering, glimmering, lip-cocooning, infused with teensy particles of gold – it is, quite simply fabulous.

Guerlain propose that it can also be used on eyes, however, or for highlighters. At un certain âge, that’s probably unwise. But for lips? It’s the gloss equivalent of putting Donna Summer on the turntable.

We feel ready to party – and it took just seconds…
