[unpaid/purchase] A ‘glasting’ balm? New to me but it’s an extra shiny lip balm, apparently. I picked up the Rom&nd Glasting Melting Balm in my local Korean beauty store, K-Miso, which unexpectedly opened in Greenwich a few months ago. I can’t walk past it without buying something and the weekend’s purchase is this.
As you can see, I dived into it without photographing it in pristine condition – I could not wait to try it! It’s exactly my kind of balm. Melting balms in the Korean sense are usually extremely soft – how they stay in a lipstick format is completely a mystery and it’s easy to apply to much because the texture is so different to regular balms and sticks. If you press too hard, your lips are covered in mush. The Glasting Melting Balm has a bit more hold so there’s not any danger of going in too heavily.
Apparently this product has gone viral – people are loving it and I see why. It’s gorgeously juicy on the lips with just the right amount of colour set in plant based oils. I got mine HERE but they don’t seem to stock it on line, although if you prefer a matte, there are plenty of Rom&nd matte lipsticks available. However, I’ve found some stock at PureSeoul HERE including my shade Hippie Berry – they’re £13.90 each.
