Blue might be an odd shade to think about putting on your lips, and on its own, it's not exactly the most flattering hue. Rest assured, though — layered over your favorite lipstick or colored gloss, there are many reasons why you might just want to try out this cool hue.
Just as blue mascara makes the whites of your eyes look brighter, blue lip gloss can make teeth look whiter. Since it's sheer, it can be layered over any other color for a subtle effect. It will also tame down unwanted warmth from your liner or lipstick. And if you get a glittery version, it can help to make your lips look fuller.

And not in a B.B. King kind of way. Last night at an event for Casio (purveyors of fine watches to your junior high self), Ke$ha rolled onto the red carpet wearing lots of blue body paint, lipstick, and eye shadow. It was definitely a daring look, but it seems like she's trying a little bit too hard to be seen as that wild and kooky girl. Do you think the unusual coordinating color works, or has Ke$ha brushed her teeth with one too many bottles of Jack?
