Gege Bear Lasting Light Solid Lip Gloss

A solid lip gloss that behaves nothing like a traditional lipstick — and that's entirely the point. The Lasting Light Solid Lip Gloss is built on TRIMETHYL PENTAPHENYL TRISILOXANE, a phenyl silicone with an exceptionally high refractive index that creates a mirror-bright, dimensional gloss finish from a bullet you can click into place. The VP copolymer system transfers less onto cups and collars than most glosses twice its weight. Six editorial shades, one unexpected formula.

• Phenyl silicone mirror gloss — TRIMETHYL PENTAPHENYL TRISILOXANE sits at over 35% of the formula — a level of phenyl silicone that's rare in lip products. Its high refractive index creates a genuinely dimensional, mirror-like gloss finish that catches the light the way glass does, not the way wax does.
• Transfer-resistant film system — VP/HEXADECENE COPOLYMER and VP/EICOSENE COPOLYMER together form a flexible, film-forming polymer network over the lip surface — the system responsible for the product's "not easy to stick to the cup" performance.
• Solid format, gloss payoff — POLYETHYLENE wax gives the formula its solid bullet structure without adding the wax-heavy feel of traditional lipsticks. It melts on contact and sets to a glossy, non-sticky finish that reads more like a gloss than a bullet.
• Press-advance applicator — The gold-tube applicator advances by pressing the base — cleaner than a twist mechanism and easier to control how much product is exposed.
• Six considered shades — Buoyant Ice Tea is a warm nude-terracotta. Grapefruit Black Tea is a deeper warm brown-red. Apricot Space is a light apricot-gold. Resonance is a deeper coral-red. Gray Powder is a dusty mauve-pink. Sweet Rosewood is a vivid cool-pink.
