Made some swatches to reference for myself when I’m getting ready, figured I might as well post it here and do a simple review of the formulas since I’m bored. Pictures were taken on my phone in my bathroom lighting so they are not great quality but oh well. All tints are swatches on my bare lips but I did do my lip routine prior to doing this. I have some hyperpigmentation on my top lip. Review in comments.

Overall review of formulas:
For starters I’m a warm-leaning olive tone & an autumn mute. Sadly my foundation doesn’t match me anymore since I’ve been indoors for a whole month so I don’t have an exact shade to reference for my skin tone.
Rom&nd JLT: Lovely glossy tint, has a sweet taste/scent to it but not too overpowering. The colour does darken after settling on the lips. I love this formula but be careful not to rub your lips together as it disrupts the glossy film that forms, as shown in the top right swatches in the first picture of bare grape vs bare grape with rubbing. 8/10
Rom&nd GMB: Very melty as its name suggests, slightly sweet scent but less in comparison to the JLT. Fairly pigmented but I only use a sheer layer as the formula is slightly sticky, can definitely build up pigment if you wish to. However due to the soft balmy texture I find the product tube does get messy, and you have to be conscious of how hard you press down on your lips or a whole chunk of product fall out. 6/10
Florette mirror glaze lipstick(Not sure of the actual name): This is one of my favourite formulas ever. Lightweight, not sticky at all and super shiny. Love the heart shaped applicator as it fits into every crevice on the lips. Not very pigmented but does boost your natural lip colour. Easiest to apply out of all of the other lip products and has a pleasant honeydew scent. Only cons are just like the Rom&nd GMB the tube gets slightly messy after each use and that you can’t retract the product once you’ve clicked it out. 9/10
Rom&nd GCG: Good lightweight tinted gloss. Barely any scent and glides onto the lips easily w/o stickiness. Wouldn’t consider this one of my favourites because I hate the stiff applicator but the colours are lovely. Not much else to say about this product, I noticed nothing revolutionary. 6/10
Rom&nd GWG: My all time holy grail gloss. Super lightweight it almost feels like water, not sticky at all and has a nice minty feel/scent. I like to layer this gloss on top of my other tints as I find it totally cancels out any existing stickiness and hydrates my lips really well. The blue sparkles in 01 Meteor Track are so dreamy and can only be really seen up close so I think people who dislike shimmery products can also enjoy this gloss. 10/10
