Is lipgloss a bad idea in really hot countries?

I'll be going to Turkey in late July and it's going to be bloody boiling! I always wear clear lipgloss but will it burn my lips or have a negative effect on them at all?





Thanks :)Is lipgloss a bad idea in really hot countries?
i would reccomend using a lip balm instead, preferably one with an added spf. the hot weather will dry your lips out like crazy so also remember to drink loads of water.





in regards to other cosmetics, summer is all about showing some skin so trade your foundation for tinted moisturizer this season, preferably one with SPF 15 or higher. this hydrating makeup helps even out your skin tone and keeps you looking fresh. if you have any problem areas you feel need extra coverage, use your concealer for spot touch-ups.





pass on powder blush and opt for gel or liquid color instead. sheer, sexy color like this stains your cheeks with a healthy glow that stays put and looks natural in sunlight.





in an attempt to outsmart dreaded summer shine, women can get carried away with pressed powder. too much powder looks heavy and unnatural in sunlight and can create a paste-like residue when combined with perspiration. try using an oil-free tinted moisturizer and a dusting of loose powder in the morning and carry oil-absorbing powder papers to control shine during the day.





hope this helps

With weather like that, you can bring it for sure, but i'd also bring a lip chap like blistex or something because of the heat and the sun, it's super important to keep you lips hydrated as much as possible. You can also use lip chap as a base (get a clear kind) and put your lip gloss over top. that's what i usually do. And it help alot.
Lipgloss wont burn your lips, but if left in very hot conditions such as the dashboard of a car, it will get very sticky. But for a cool, tasty treat, keep a stick or two of your favorite lip balm in the refrigerator. Fruity favorites become even more refreshing when chilled. Many brands of Chap Stick, lip gloss, lip balm and other lip treatments now offer products with SPF 15 to prevent burned lips. Keep an eye out for these sweet treats, as few things taste worse than burnt lips.


So wear a lip gloss with SPF 15 or higher if possible, if not wear a Chap Stick with SPF under.





Have fun!!





Hope this helped!
well when i went to turkey i took different colour lip balm but when i went spain - when it was boiling i wore clear lipgloss- and it didnt melt or nothing/ also try vaseline.





p.s i constantly wear clear lipgloss so i took 2 glosses with me and i nearly used them both p when on holiday
I would suggest buying soft lips b/c it has spf in it and lip gloss is easily layered over it. I have to say though if you put a few coats of SoftLips on, the consistency is really nice and you may not want to bother with the gloss at all.





They now offer them in tints and with shimmer
it wont burn your lips but it'll be especially sticky and melty if you dont keep it in your bag or in a cool place.


the only bad thing is that it'll melt and wont work as well as if it was room temperature, but no physical worries.
hey hun i know what you mean. I was in Jordan a few years ago and all my lip glosses melted in my bag and felt icky when i wore them. I say stick to tinted lip balm or those glossy lip sticks....so it wont melt as easily.
wen i go to jamaica every year, i have no problem with lip gloss. they wear it too. i'm sure if you go to turkey you will see them wearing lipgloss - so why are you worrying.
I really dont think lipgloss will have a negative effect, but just in case try putting on some chapstick before that has some SPF in it to protect your lips from burning or becoming chapped. Then apply all lipgloss you want :]
it wont hurt your lips but it wont hlp them either. i would try to put on some spf chapstick and then the lipgloss to keep your shiny look but at the same time keep your lips saef from the sun
I would wear lip gloss with SPF. Keeps your lips smooth and protected. Wouldn't consider going to the beach without sunscreen, would you?


Have a nice trip!
Nope you can wear lipgloss but you'll find it's stickier than usual in the heat.





chapstick with SPF is a good idea.
Actually no. In fact, lip cosmetics such as lip gloss protects your lips and keeps them moisturized. To be safe, buy a lip gloss or a balm with at least spf15.





Have a safe and fun trip!
You can get vaseline with SPF 15, which protects your lips and looks like nice shiny lip gloss!
I would use a chap stick under first...in hot weather your lips need a moistener just like your hair and sunblock like your skin.
when your on holiday it's better not to wear much make up: your lip gloss will lat about 5 mins... so unless you reapply it constantly it won'tlast...
I would stick to something with some SPF in it like chapstick. If you like a little color, get some lip liners and use that over your chapsick.
Dont think it will do any harm but you might want to consider a lip balm with sun protection.
Lipgloss is never a bad idea. Never.
I am not an expert lol, but it should be okay.
I think it would actually keep your lips moisturized...if you have something wet on them they will not dry out as easy?
i think it's fine.
no usually if u look on the lip gloss it may say spf 15, so u would actually benifit using it when away
