Reviews

There’s many glosses on the

"There’s many glosses on the market, but glossy balms take the cake. They have the signature vanilla fragrance & come in so many varieties of colors. They’re not sticky/tacky & apply easily over other lip products. Fembot, Strawberry Soda, & Knew Better are my go-tos."

Fembot glossy balm

"I love the fembot glossy balm! This is such a pretty lip gloss and makes me feel put together even if I am not wearing any makeup! I love the shimmer, glitter, and the color it has. It is so good and I purchased it in the lip plumper too! I will forever purchase this lip gloss! I love that it has hylauronic acid because it moisturizes my lips all day long and lasts a long time!"

Sonya U. (5/5)

Chronic Illness Godsend

"As someone with chronic illness, I get angular cheilitis a lot. This is the one gloss that doesn't flare it up or cause it to return. I only ever wear healing ointments on my lips, and this is the closest glam product you'll find with that consistency/feeling. The vanilla scent isn't too strong, so it's great for people who get nauseated easily."

The r. e. m. beauty Glossy Balm

"The r. e. m. beauty Glossy Balm is my go-to lip product. I love how moisturizing it is, how glossy it looks, and that it feels comfortable instead of sticky. It gives my lips a healthy, shiny finish and I wear it almost every day."

Kayleigh P. (5/5)

Obsessed with glossy balm

"Best $20 ever spent. I have every shade of glossy balm, but I will say I’ve gone through almost 5 tubes of cherry cola in this last year. It smells amazing and adds just the perfect amount of color into my daily look. Hocus cocoa is another favorite for very neutral shine. Smells like vanilla bean ice cream!"

April (5/5)

My favorite lip product, of

"My favorite lip product, of all time, genuinely the best gloss it’s so hydrating gives my light colored lips the most amazing color and I get compliments all the time! Specifically Cherry cola and Juice box! Especially from older ladies which makes me feel so good ❤️"

SUPER CUTEEE. I love all

"SUPER CUTEEE. I love all of my itsms so much And I’m obsessed with the glossy balms. 10/10 will be ordering again when the site goes to 50%. I wish I ordered some blush though"

Natalie N. (5/5)

I Literally can not live without it.

"R. E. M. Glossy Balm is not just my favorite lip product, it's my entire personality at this point. I cannot leave the house without it. I've always loved a good gloss, but nothing comes close to this. It hydrates my lips without that gross sticky feeling and leaves the perfect hint of color every single time. Somehow it's a balm, a gloss, and pure magic all in one tube. Honestly, when I die, bury me with a Glossy Balm in my pocket because I refuse to spend eternity without it. 💋✨"

Sandra (5/5)

this dangerous woman gloss balm

"this dangerous woman gloss balm in shade forever boy is so beautiful it’s not sticky at all and is actually very nice on the lips and the shade subtle but so pretty it has a bit of glitter in so it looks amazing in good lighting"

Navpreet S. (5/5)

Love it! I now understand why Ari is obsessed!

"Amazing lip balm! Glossy balm is absolutely addicting and also very underrated. It smells insanely good, and I am literally obsessed. So nourishing, not sticky, and it makes your lips look juicy! I want to wear it all the time and carry it in my bag every single day. I run out of glossy balm so fast - faster than I have run out of any lip balm. It's absolutely a perfect hybrid of a gloss and a lip balm and easy enough to wear every day or glam up! The shades may be on the sheer side, but it's buildable and something that everyone can wear. Please make more shades and more shimmers! Maybe even make a cream formula! I love the tube- I only wish the applicator was a bit bigger so I could get more product out and apply more on."
