If you checked out my beauty content, you know Charlotte is a lipgloss girl. So a Huda Beauty’s New Lip Gloss #FAUXFILLER Extra Shine Lip Gloss event says less. Here is a day in the life of a beauty editor.
Huda Beauty’s New Faux Filler Lip Gloss Review
From buttery lip balms and oils to gloss puckers, it’s the generation of the lips. The lip category has gotten a ton of new products, especially gloss, that give that pucker precisely what it needs: some glossy moisture with more skin-loving ingredients and moisturising products.
I am obsessed with Lip care, and lip colour is the perfect marriage. A quality lip product is a must for someone with stubbornly dry lips and eczema.
My makeup potch has at least four different lippies at any moment, and I have an extra one in my pocket, just in case. I’m particular about texture, taste, colour, and hydration.
As I scrolled through TikTok one day, I saw Huda Kattan claim she made “the world’s best gloss” with the launch of the new Huda Beauty Faux Filler Extra Shine Lip Gloss. My interest was piqued as a brand fan (and a lip product aficionado). The product is supposed to visibly smooth and blur fine lines while delivering a “glass-like” shine, and I had to see if it was worth the hype. .About the Huda Beauty Faux Filler Extra Shine Lip GlossIt is formulated with vitamin E and vegan collagen to help hydrate and moisturise the lips.
FAUXFILLER Extra Shine Lip Gloss
It has a tapered doe-foot applicator with a formula reservoir to hold the maximum amount of product.It comes in seven shades: Glassy (transparent), Sugar Baby (light pink), Honey (light peachy nude), Bombshell (pinky brown), Foxy (caramel brown), Posh (deep rose/berry), and Coco (deep chocolate brown).
What I Like About the Huda Beauty Faux Filler Extra Shine Lip GlossKattan describes the gloss as a non-plumping formula that fills in lip lines, and as someone with parched lips, I find these lines very noticeable. To test whether it delivers on its claims, I compared my bare lips to the precise shade of Glassy.
My lips look significantly smoother, and the glossy shine gives them a fuller, juicer appearance. Beyond the gloss’s actual look, I was more impressed with its texture. It’s a true balmy gloss without the stickiness. After applying it, the hydration sinks to nourish my lips, and it’s light as a feather. It also is long-lasting—the gloss stays on for hours. Other glosses dry out my lips and make me addicted to reapplication.
After seeing how the formula held up, I was even more excited to try out the other colours. Of the six shades, I adore Bombshell, Foxy, Posh, and Coco. Overall, the range of colours is universally flattering. These lip glosses have just the right amount of pigment to be worn alone, making it easy to streamline your routine.
The best part about these lip glosses is that they are quite affordable compared to other Luxury glosses on the market. From the texture and feel to the pigmented colour payoff, I’ll likely be replacing the other lip products in my purse with one of these glosses—or two, if I want to change up my colour midday.
How to Use the Huda Beauty Faux Filler Extra Shine Lip Gloss
Because of its pigmented colour payoff, this lip gloss is versatile. You can wear it by itself, on top of a lip combo for a high-shine effect, or, as the brand suggests, paired with a lip liner for a more defined look. I love wearing the clear one on its own, and it’s perfect for reapplication throughout the day. The tapered doe-foot applicator makes it so easy to use the tip to apply it neatly along the perimeter of your lips and then fill it in with the flatter sides that have the product reservoir.
The brand also recommends lining your lips with a liner and blending it out. Use a darker shade for the corners of the lips and a lighter shade for the cupid’s bow and the fuller part of your lips. What to Consider Before Trying the Huda Beauty Faux Filler Extra Shine Lip GlossThe lip gloss is heavier than others on the market but isn’t as sticky. I don’t mind the thickness; I prefer it because it makes my lips feel conditioned. It does not have the slip of lip oil, but it has more of a lip balm feel.For some of the shades — mainly lighter options like Sugar Baby and Honey — you can see the pigment settle into fine lines, whereas the darker shades have more of a blended, even-toned finish. It’s something to remember if you are considering those two shades.
