In a hurry? Pomifera Glaze is a high-shine, non-sticky lip oil with sheer tint and a clean, EWG VERIFIED formula powered by avocado oil, shea butter, and cold-pressed Pomifera seed oil. It’s vegan, cruelty-free, and great for comfortable shine over bare lips or layered over lipstick; just note it’s currently out of stock and priced as a premium formula.

Meet Pomifera Glaze: a tinted lip oil designed to deliver glassy, conditioning shine without the sticky feel. Available in six whisper-soft shades—Fawn (nude), Crush (pink), Slay (berry), Vamp (wine), Boss (red), and Babe (peachy pink)—it aims to bridge comfort, clean credentials, and everyday wear. The star ingredient is Pomifera (Maclura pomifera) seed oil, cold-pressed from non-GMO fruit grown in southern Iowa. The brand describes the process as sustainable and carbon-neutral, with unused fruit composted.

Beyond shine, the formula leans on skin-loving oils and butters: castor and avocado oils for slip and cushion, and shea butter for softening. The result is a lightweight, glossy veil that feels like care first and color second—ideal if you love the look of gloss but prefer the skincare-forward texture of an oil.

Who it’s for

  • Anyone who wants a high-shine, non-sticky lip look that feels nourishing, not heavy.
  • Fans of clean beauty: the formula is vegan, cruelty-free, non-GMO, gluten-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, sulfate-free, and EWG VERIFIED.
  • People who prefer sheer-to-soft tint over opaque color, or who like to top their favorite lipstick with a glossy, conditioning finish.
  • Those who value sustainably sourced oils and a brand story rooted in responsibly processed botanicals.

Who it may not suit

  • If you want full-coverage color or a matte, transfer-proof finish, this isn’t it.
  • If you need all-day wear without reapplication, note that lip oils typically wear 1–3 hours, depending on eating and drinking.
  • If you are extremely sensitive to certain oils (e.g., castor, avocado) or to phenoxyethanol, review the ingredient list and consider a patch test first.
  • Budget-conscious shoppers: it’s a premium-priced lip oil.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Non-sticky, high-shine finish that layers beautifully over lip color.
  • Skincare-forward blend with avocado oil and shea butter for a cushioned feel.
  • EWG VERIFIED, vegan, cruelty-free, and free from parabens, phthalates, and sulfates.
  • Six sheer, wearable tints designed for everyday use.
  • Includes Pomifera seed oil, cold-pressed from non-GMO fruit with a sustainability-first process.
  • Backed by a 100% Money Back Guarantee.

Cons

  • Currently out of stock (expected Sun, Mar 01).
  • Premium price point compared to many glosses and basic lip oils.
  • Sheer tint means limited payoff if you prefer bold color.
  • Contains phenoxyethanol (a common preservative) which some sensitive users avoid.

How to Use

  1. Prep: If needed, gently exfoliate lips and pat dry.
  2. Apply: Swipe Pomifera Glaze over bare lips for a hydrated, glassy finish or layer over your favorite lipstick to add shine and comfort.
  3. Define (optional): Pair with a lip liner that matches your natural lip tone or your lipstick to refine edges.
  4. Refresh: Reapply as desired—lip oils typically need a touch-up after eating or drinking.

Pro tip: For a vivid-but-comfortable look, dab a creamy lipstick or stain, blot once, then top with Glaze for sheen without heaviness.

If you love the idea of a skincare-first gloss, Pomifera Glaze hits a sweet spot: glossy, comfortable, and clean, with a sustainability-forward story behind its signature oil. The sheer tints make it easy to wear daily or layer, while the EWG VERIFIED, vegan, and cruelty-free credentials will appeal to ingredient-conscious shoppers. The premium price and current out-of-stock status are the main drawbacks—if those are manageable, Glaze is a chic, feel-good way to add shine to your routine.
