I saw this popsicle lips trend post claiming you only need three products to nail the look. Hold on, let’s break that down. The whole point is to mimic that soft, dewy stain you get after a strawberry popsicle. But chapped, flaky lips would make any of those products look patchy and uneven. You can’t skip prepping your lips first. Either a scrub or a hydrating balm to smooth things out. That’s a fourth item right there. The "only three products" claim doesn’t account for this basic step. It’s not as effortless as they make it sound if you have to add extra prep just to get the desired finish.
