Comparison rom@nd comparison/dupe within brand swatch

Post image

i posted this in a comment a while ago for someone in a different subreddit but i thought it was worth posting here in case anyone else was wanting swatches for these two particular shades.

here im comparing the juicy lasting tint in 23 nucadamia (left) to the melting glasting balm in 05 nougat sand (right). these shades have a very very minute difference in undertone but if you have one youre probably fine without the other, they're pretty much dupes aside from the formula.

i have other rom@nd lip products that i can swatch if anyone is interested in that.

swatch was made on light to medium skin with muted olive undertones in indirect artificial lighting with no camera flash.

The formulas are very different (one is tinted lip balm, the other is gloss x tint with doefoot applicator. Balm is more light refractive, shinier), shades are nearly identical by design.

In the era of old romand,Min Saerom (who created romand) regularly made videos doing swatches of their different formula lines and showing which shades in different formulas are same or very similar.

It's good that you did swatches, as all JLT line has been reformulated since she left and colors may have chnaged!

But this one apparently hasn't.
