The Gothique collection is characterized by its ultra-pigmented shades, all of which boast metallic finishes that leave the lips with a subtle sparkle. While many [metallic lipsticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-emperor-kraken-duo) have a tendency to feel more dry, Gucci Beauty balances the unique finish with a creamy formula, which not only hydrates, but makes it easier to apply and more comfortable to wear throughout the day.
