1. Pastel Ombré Lips: Sweet Sunset Vibes

Why It Works: Soft gradients are totally TikTok’s favorite. This look layers two complementary pastel shades for a sunset-inspired lip that’s cute, dreamy, and ultra-shareable.

You’ll Need:

• Gloss & Giggles Cotton Candy Whispers (sheer baby pink)

• Gloss & Giggles Peach Fuzz Fantasy (sheer peach)

• Lip brush or clean fingertip

• Tissues

Steps:

1. Prep Your Pout: Exfoliate with Sugar & Smile scrub, then pat lips dry.

2. Base Layer: Swipe one thin coat of Cotton Candy Whispers all over.

3. Gradient Pop: Using a lip brush or fingertip, dab Peach Fuzz Fantasy at the center of your top and bottom lips.

4. Blend: Gently press lips together, then lightly feather the edges with the brush to create a seamless fade.

5. Clean Edges: Press a folded tissue to the corners of your lips to remove any excess and sharpen the shape.

Pro Tip: Record in natural light, then speed up your clip for that signature TikTok transition effect!

2. Dewy “No‑Makeup” Blush: Rosy, Youthful Flush

Why It Works: Gen‑Z craves that fresh‑faced glow—barely‑there color that reads like your skin, but better.

You’ll Need:

• Gloss & Giggles Blushing Bloom (sheer rose)

• Cream or gel blush base (optional)

• Stipple brush or clean fingertip

Steps:

1. Prime & Hydrate: Apply a lightweight face moisturizer, then a drop of cream blush if desired.

2. Dot & Press: Lightly dot Blushing Bloom across the apples of your cheeks.

3. Blend Upward: Using a stipple brush (or fingertip), buff the gloss into the skin in small circular motions, blending upward toward your temples.

4. Layer for Intensity: For a more pronounced flush, add another thin layer—always building gradually to avoid overdoing it.

5. Set (Optional): Mist with a dewy setting spray to lock in that glass‑skin sheen.

Pro Tip: Smile to find your apples, and keep your brush movements soft and undefined for that natural “I just walked in from the cold” look.

3. Glossy Highlight Halo: Light‑Catchin’ Glow

Why It Works: A halo of shine on cheekbones instantly amps up your selfie game. Plus, Gen‑Z loves unexpected highlight placements!

You’ll Need:

• Gloss & Giggles Barely There Blush (translucent sheen)

• Small synthetic brush or clean fingertip

Steps:

1. Foundation First: Apply your favorite tinted moisturizer or cushion.

2. Dot the High Points: Lightly dab Barely There Blush on the highest points of your cheekbones, down the center of your nose, on your cupid’s bow, and the inner corners of your brows.

3. Feather Out: Gently tap the areas with your fingertip or brush to meld the gloss with your base.

4. Build Up: If you want extra shine, add a second dot and blend again—focus on symmetry so both sides match.

5. Final Flick: Use a fan brush to sweep away any fallout and unify the finish.

Pro Tip: Capture a quick “before vs. after” reveal—flip the camera view for that satisfying transformation moment!

4. Monochrome Pop: Coordinated Color Blocking

Why It Works: Coordinating your eyes, cheeks, and lips in one hue is bold, graphic, and screams editorial-chic. Perfect for the trendsetting crowd.

You’ll Need:

• Gloss & Giggles Dusty Rose Reverie (muted rose)

• Eyeshadow brush or clean fingertip

• Blending brush

Steps:

1. Base Prep: Sweep a sheer nude eyeshadow or concealer over your lids as a primer.

2. Eye Accent: Using an eyeshadow brush, lightly sweep Dusty Rose Reverie across the center of your lids, then blend the edges upward and outward.

3. Cheek Tint: Tap a small dot onto your cheekbones and blend as in Tutorial #2.

4. Gloss Finish: Swipe Dusty Rose Reverie on your lips for that signature Gloss & Giggles shine.

5. Balance & Blend: Use a clean brush to soften any harsh lines, creating a unified monotone wash.

Pro Tip: Turn it into a side-by-side “Get ready with me” Reel to show each step quickly, synced to a catchy beat edit!

5. Glazed Donut Lips: High‑Shine Sweetness

Why It Works: Think of your favorite glazed pastry—this look magnifies pigment and shine for lips that look freshly frosted.

You’ll Need:

• Gloss & Giggles Cherry Cheek (sheer red) or Scarlet Smile (vibrant red)

• Clear lip liner (optional)

• Flat lip brush or fingertip

Steps:

1. Line It Up (Optional): Outline your lips with clear liner for extra staying power.

2. Base Tint: Apply one coat of Cherry Cheek or Scarlet Smile all over lips.

3. Gloss Bomb: Immediately layer a generous coat of our clear Gloss & Giggles topcoat (or reapply the same shade for max shine).

4. Center Highlight: Dab a tiny bit more gloss at the center of your bottom lip, pressing lips together lightly.

5. Clean & Perfect: Swipe a Q‑tip around the edges to sharpen the line and remove any stray gloss.

Pro Tip: Catch that “glazed” shimmer in action by tilting your head in your video—light reflections are everything here!
