Each week, we’ll have a new showdown, pitting tried-and-true makeup categories against each other until we narrow it down and crown the Community Champion makeup product category… and hopefully get some all-star recs along the way! 😊

TO VOTE, hit the reply button below and TAG a product you love that represents the category you’re voting for. For example, @AlexBT can’t live without her signature cat eye, so in the battle between Mascara vs. Eyeliner, she might reply with “EYELINER!

I am team lip gloss!! All day errrry day! I think because I'm also heavily into lip balms and I think they are somewhat similar. I really like my PAT McGRATH LABS LUST: Lip Gloss Aliengelic. And I recently started using Dior Dior Addict Lip Maximizer Plumping Gloss 001 Light Pink and love it!

#Lipgloss
I like lipstick but finding just the right color has always been difficult for me. So lipgloss is what I always end up using.

Lipgloss with shimmers are much easier to use and much easier to match with outfits and your other makeups

#Sephora collection is wonderful with color choices and great prices 

#kaja glosses are all so tempting 

[DezzDollazz]

i love both, but definitely have to say lipgloss for me! I wear it dailyyyy. As for a favorite😩, that’s way too hard to choose!!! 

[CarolBT]

It **is** too hard to choose so that's why I didn't limit myself to just one 😆 @DezzDollazz 

[mintkandi]

Lip gloss is the champion! I have several favorites but the top tier number 1 is PAT McGRATH LABS Mini LUST: Lip Gloss™ Trio  

[Brittaf]

#Lipgloss hands down! So much easier to apply than lipstick, usually more moisturizing, and suitable for casual and dressy situations Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Milky Lip Jelly Gloss Coconut 

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Gloss Freya 

[aamymosorio1]

Team LIPGLOSS all the way.  Im actually a lover of tinted balms the last couple years, I've kind of let lipsticks fall by the wayside.  I do still own way too many, but the comfort of a gloss is my jam.  Current favourites Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Lip Jelly Non-Sticky Gloss  and Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Stay Vulnerable Glossy Lip Balm  though the Dior Dior Addict Stellar Lip Gloss  MAC Cosmetics Mini MAC Lipglass PAT McGRATH LABS LUST: Lip Gloss and the Dose Of Colours gloss as well as the Ulta Beauty Lasting colour lip gloss stain are also up there and depending on my mood and the shades I have often rotate into favourites.  Does anyone remember the MAC hint of colour lip oil's?  I have a couple of those that are probably older than sin, but they fall into the gloss category for me as well and they're great. 

[CarolBT]

Ooooh I've been eyeballing the Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Lip Jelly Non-Sticky Gloss! Happy to see a reco for it.

[danielledanielle]

LIP-FRIGGIN-STICK.  (Lipstick). I'm living the good gloss life now, but that's temporary.  A solid beat needs a solid lip.

I was surprised you chose lipstick because I recall you mentioning Fenty gloss bombs often haha! Your post has reminded me to dig up my UD Firebird and start using it again! For some reason, I thought the shade was discontinued @danielledanielle
