✨ Don’t Buy rom&nd Lippies Until You Watch This! 💋

I’ve been testing two of the newest rom&nd lippies, and here’s my honest verdict! 👇

💧 rom&nd Juicy Flash Lip Oil – (4.5⭐/5)

If you have dry or chapped lips, this lip oil is definitely worth trying. The oil-based formula feels lightweight while keeping my lips soft and hydrated all day. 💖

✨ What I love:
• Super moisturizing
• No bleeding
• Smooth, glossy finish
• Perfect for layering over lipsticks or lip tints

The only thing I wish? I wish it had stronger pigmentation or a sparkly version so I wouldn’t need to pair it with another lip product. But overall, it’s a great everyday lip oil for dry lips!

🌸 rom&nd Glasting Color Gloss S01 Peach Sparkle – (4.8⭐/5)

I’m completely obsessed with this one! 🤩 The tiny sparkles are so pretty and mesmerizing, and they instantly make my lips look fuller—even without a plumping lip gloss (which I avoid because I hate the stinging sensation 😅).

✨ Why I love it:
💖 Gorgeous high-shine finish
✨ Beautiful shimmer
💋 Fuller-looking lips
🌿 Moisturizing botanical oils
🙌 Non-sticky formula

My only complaint? I wish rom&nd released more shades and made them easier to find in the US. So far, I’ve only spotted them in Japan and on YesStyle.

✨ My Verdict

🥇 JUNG SAEM MOOL – My top pick! It offers the best balance of natural finish, buildable medium-to-full coverage, SPF50 protection, great shade match, and excellent value for money.

🥈 YSL – Delivers the most luxurious healthy glow and beautifully smooths the look of fine lines. I rated it 4.5/5 because it’s more expensive, only available in Asia, and comes in a limited shade range.

If you’re in the U.S. or looking for more shade options, the new YSL Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation may be a better alternative.

🥉 CLIO – A great budget-friendly mesh cushion with a beautiful glowy finish. It’s perfect for dehydrated skin and makeup beginners who prefer light-to-medium coverage.
