For makeup enthusiasts seeking a vibrant, high-shine lip finish, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Gloss in Guava Pink offers a beautiful pop of color and a comfortable, non-sticky feel. This guide will help you maximize its potential for luscious, radiant lips, though please note that, like most glosses, reapplication may be needed for continuous vibrancy throughout the day.
Vibrant Guava Pink Shade: A beautiful, universally flattering pink hue with warm undertones, perfect for adding a lively touch to any look.
High-Shine, Luminous Finish: Delivers an intense, mirror-like gloss that makes lips appear fuller and more voluptuous.
Comfortable, Non-Sticky Formula: Specially formulated to glide on smoothly without the heavy, tacky feeling often associated with lip glosses.
Precision Applicator: Features a custom-designed flat, paddle-shaped applicator that picks up the perfect amount of product for effortless and even application.
Versatile Wear: Can be worn alone for a sheer wash of color and shine, or layered over lip liner and lipstick for added dimension and intensity.
Long-Lasting Shine (for a gloss): While not transfer-proof, its comfortable formula maintains its luminous effect for a good duration between meals and drinks.
Subtle Vanilla Scent: Info needed: [Confirm if this specific gloss has a scent. Assuming based on typical ABH lip glosses.]
Beautiful Color Payoff: The 'Guava' shade offers a lovely, noticeable pink tint.
Non-Sticky Texture: Provides a comfortable wear experience, unlike many traditional glosses.
High-Impact Shine: Delivers an impressive, reflective finish that enhances lip volume.
Easy to Apply: The applicator allows for smooth, even coverage with minimal effort.
Layering Potential: Works wonderfully over other lip products to customize looks.
Requires Reapplication: Like most lip glosses, it will need to be reapplied after eating or drinking.
Transferable: The glossy finish can easily transfer onto cups, clothing, etc.
Limited Staying Power: Less long-wearing than matte or satin lipsticks, especially under active use.
May Emphasize Lip Lines: On very dry or textured lips, the high shine could subtly highlight imperfections if not properly prepped.

The Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Gloss in Guava is designed for immediate impact and comfortable wear. Its non-sticky formula ensures your lips feel soft and supple, not weighed down. The 4.5ml tube is compact and ideal for on-the-go touch-ups.
Prep Your Lips: For the smoothest application, ensure your lips are exfoliated and moisturized. A quick swipe of lip balm 5-10 minutes prior can help, blotting off any excess before applying gloss.
Bare Lips: Apply directly to bare lips for a sheer, natural-looking wash of vibrant pink color and an irresistible high-shine finish.
Layered Look: For more definition and intensity, first outline and fill your lips with a complementary pink or nude lip liner. Then, apply the Guava Lip Gloss over the top. This technique can also extend the wear time.
Over Lipstick: To add a glossy effect to your favorite lipstick, apply a thin layer of the Guava Lip Gloss to the center of your lips after applying lipstick. Blend outwards slightly for a diffused, plumping effect.
Touch-Ups: The convenient size makes it perfect for quick reapplication throughout the day to maintain shine and color, especially after meals or drinks.
Everyday Glam: A single swipe adds a polished, fresh look for daily errands or office wear.
Evening Events: Layer over a more opaque lip color to achieve a sophisticated, luminous finish for nights out.
Photoshoots: The high-shine formula photographs beautifully, making lips appear fuller and more radiant.
Quick Refresh: Use it to instantly brighten your face and elevate your makeup with minimal effort.
This product requires no specific setup. Simply uncap and apply.
Lip Liners: Highly compatible with various lip liners, especially those in pink, nude, or berry tones, to create customized looks and improve definition.
Lipsticks: Works seamlessly over most lipstick formulas (matte, satin, cream) to add a glossy finish and can alter the undertone slightly depending on the base color.
Other Lip Products: Can be worn over lip primers for extended wear or with other lip care products.
Storage: Store the lip gloss in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can alter the product's consistency and effectiveness.
Cap Tightly: Always ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to prevent the product from drying out or becoming contaminated.
Hygiene: For sanitary reasons and to maintain product integrity, avoid sharing your lip gloss. Clean the applicator tip with a clean tissue periodically if visible debris accumulates, though be gentle to avoid damaging the applicator.
Expiry: Most lip glosses have a shelf life of 12-24 months after opening. Check the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol (an open jar icon with a number and 'M' for months) on the packaging.
