Pigmented Lipglosses | 2019 Editor’s Favorites

I’m hopeful that as we see more luminous lip color formulas gain popularity that we’ll see some resurgence in glosses, too! If you like your gloss more pigmented, this list of favorites is for you (there’s a separate one for sheerer glosses). I tested and reviewed just over 130 lipglosses over the last year, so there was some variety available, but I’d love to see a few more brands get more into the gloss game in 2020!

Pat McGrath’s LUST Lip Gloss added quite a few shades to enjoy during 2019, while I continued to find favorites in the Urban Decay Hi-Fi Gloss range (like Hot Love).  Hourglass also debuted their Unreal Lip Gloss formula, though I’ve only tested a few shades but definitely seems like a promising range, generally.

If you’re unfamiliar with how I like to do my year-end favorites, here’s the low down: I pull from the products I reviewed in 2019, regardless of whether they were new, limited edition, or an established range I’ve only just gotten around to reviewing. These are personal favorites, so they may or may not be the highest rated products reviewed during the year (though they will tend to be better rated, naturally!). (You can check out best of 2018 if you missed it.)
