Common Lipstick Flavors

You must have always wondered why do we feel the taste of a lipstick simply by smelling it? The answer is quite simple as your ordinary lipsticks which are not sweetened or flavored, only have flavor oils as an additional component.

These flavor oils are lip-safe fragrances as they only smell but not taste. When commercial brands use these flavor oils, they only put the smell of a certain fruit or product which gives you the idea of the lipstick.

The lipsticks, however have an actual sweetener, commonly aspartame or any other sugar substitute. This sweetener tricks the brain into thinking that the lipstick has the particular flavor but the fact is that you are only smelling it. Thus, when you buy them, you have a tendency to keep licking your lips and ingesting the flavoring oils.

There are many organic cosmetic brands which do not use any animal products to make their lipsticks and only use herbal extracts. Thus, it would be advisable that you use these lipsticks, glosses and lip balms produced by these companies.

Out of the many lipsticks used by women today, we have a few mentioned here. Find out which ones are your favorite.

If you're a die-hard chocolate fan and wouldn't mind tasting and smelling it the whole day, a chocolate lipstick is all you need. The rich and glossy look of the shiny color on your lips and the intoxicating aroma of dark chocolate is definitely a treat for an onlooker as well as you.
