Want lips that look irresistibly kissable, glossy, and full of romance? Rom&nd Glasting Water Gloss is one of the most talked about Korean lip products right now because it gives that juicy, mirror-shine finish without the usual stickiness or heavy feel.
I’ve worn it daily for two weeks (mostly shades 02 Red Drop, 06 Fig Dive, and 03 Peach Dash) through dates, coffee runs, selfies, and cold winter weather to see how it really performs. Here’s the honest, no-fluff review.
First Impressions
The tube is slim, matte-black, and feels premium. The applicator is a wide, flat doe-foot with a slightly pointed tip. Looks very precise for outlining and filling. The gloss itself is thick but surprisingly lightweight, almost jelly-like. Scent is very faint and clean (barely noticeable after 10 seconds). No overpowering fragrance, so it’s definitely a big win for sensitive lips.

Shade range: 10+ shades. The most romantic/date-night winners right now are:
- 02 Red Drop – classic true red with glass-like shine
- 06 Fig Dive – deep berry-plum, incredibly flattering on most lip tones
- 03 Peach Dash – soft peachy coral for softer, everyday romance
Texture & Finish
This is not your typical sticky gloss. It feels like a water-gel balm – slippery and juicy for the first 20–30 seconds, then sets to a very comfortable, non-tacky film with extreme mirror shine. Lips look 3D, plump, and wet – the kind of gloss that makes people say “your lips look amazing.” It doesn’t feather, migrate, or settle into lip lines (even on drier lips if you exfoliate first).
Wear Time & Real-Life Performance
- Initial shine: 10/10, pure glass lips
- Comfort: 9/10, very hydrating (jojoba oil, macadamia oil, shea butter)
- Transfer-proof level: medium – leaves a strong, even stain/tint after 3–4 hours
- Longevity: 4–6 hours full gloss, 6–8 hours as a stain
- Eating/drinking: survives light snacks, coffee, and water; reapply after oily food or heavy lipstick removal
- My experience: Wore Red Drop on a date – got compliments on how juicy and full my lips looked after 5 hours. Fig Dive lasted through dinner + drinks with only one touch-up. Peach Dash is perfect for soft, “my lips but better” daytime romance.
Best Romantic Looks
- Red Drop Solo – sheer 1 layer for classic romantic red
- Fig Dive Over Lip Liner – line with matching liner, fill with gloss for bold, kissable pout
- Peach Dash Gradient – dab in centre, blend outward with finger for Korean-style “blurred” romantic lips
- Layered with Matte Lipstick – apply matte first, then Glasting on top for a 3D glossy finish
Pros & Cons:
Pros
- Extreme mirror shine that lasts
- Very comfortable & hydrating (no drying out)
- Strong stain = good colour payoff even after gloss fades
- No stickiness or tackiness
- Affordable & widely available
Cons
- Not fully transfer-proof (normal for glossy gloss)
- Tube can dispense a lot if you squeeze hard – use light pressure
- Some shades settle into lip lines if lips are very dry (exfoliate + balm first)
