In this episode of Beauty Talk Confessions, Kati is back with another Trend Thursday – Hot or Not, testing the viral Glaze For Days Lip Oil by Annette Beauty Project in a real-time, no-filter review.

This vegan lip oil has been trending for its high-shine finish, hydrating feel, and non-sticky formula—but does it actually live up to the hype?

Kati swatches and tries multiple shades, breaking down texture, shine, flavor, and how it actually feels on dry, winter lips. She shares her honest thoughts on application, wearability, and whether the added scent and flavor enhance the experience—or become a downside.

She also highlights who this product is best for and whether it’s worth adding to your everyday routine.

The Takeaway

A lip product can look amazing—but if the feel or flavor doesn’t match your preference, it might not be your go-to. The best lip oils balance hydration, comfort, and wearability for your personal style.

In this episode of Beauty Talk Confessions, Kati is back with another Hot or Not / Trend Thursday, comparing two viral Korean skincare favorites: the Cosrx Hyaluronic Intensive Cream and the Laneige Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream.

Kati tests both products side by side in a real-time, no-filter review, breaking down texture, hydration, absorption, and how each one performs on dry, sensitive skin. She shares her honest experience with both formulas, including how they feel immediately after application and how well they hold moisture.

She also gives esthetician insight into hyaluronic acid, what true hydration should feel like, and why not every “hydrating” product works the same for every skin type.

Kati walks through the differences in finish, weight, and overall performance, then shares who each product works best for and gives her final Hot or Not rating.

The Takeaway

Hydration isn’t one-size-fits-all. The best moisturizer is the one that actually supports your skin type and holds moisture where your skin needs it most.
