The Laka Kiss Proof Gloss is an eight-shade lip gloss launching on Naver in South Korea on 9 November 2026. Known in Korean as 라카 키스 프루프 글로스, it comes from Laka (라카) and joins our K-beauty and lip gloss release coverage. A Korean blog gives its regular price as ₩18,000.

Updated 2 November 2026: Naver's Shopping Live page lists the gloss as upcoming; it isn't on sale yet.

Release Date

The Laka Kiss Proof Gloss goes on sale on 9 November 2026 as a pre-launch on Naver in South Korea. Naver's Shopping Live page lists a launch broadcast that day at 7pm Korea time, hosted by the Naver channel Beauty Room (뷰티룸). Korean coverage calls this a pre-launch (선런칭), and no date for a wider launch or other retailers has been announced. Beaupaper, a Korean beauty news account, says campaign visuals feature Nana and that Laka recruited Instagram reviewers before launch.

Price

Prices for the single 4.8 ml gloss come from Salgu Blossom (살구블라썸), a Korean blog that previewed the product. Naver's page doesn't display them yet.

• Regular price: ₩18,000
• Launch week, 9–15 November 2026: ₩14,300 with coupon
• During the 9 November 2026 live broadcast: ₩13,400 with coupon

Prices for the duo and sets aren't confirmed. US, UK and other market prices aren't confirmed either.

Laka Kiss Proof Gloss 8 Shades

• 02 Us: nude pink
• 03 Cotty: neutral peach
• 04 Wave: neutral pink
• 05 Signal: mauve rose
• 06 Mood: warm fig

• 08 Lover: plum red

Where to Buy

• South Korea: Naver Shopping Live from 9 November 2026
• US: Not yet confirmed
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• Other markets: Not yet confirmed

Checked 2 November 2026: the Naver live page lists it as upcoming; the product isn't on sale yet. Laka's Korean homepage didn't mention it.

What Makes the Laka Kiss Proof Gloss Different?

• Color and shine: Laka says the color stays set while the shine stays, and calls the gloss waterproof with no smudging worries.
• Application: Salgu Blossom says to pump the applicator about 5 times to mix the formula, apply, then wait about 10 seconds for it to set without transfer.
• Packaging: Laka's lineup image shows silver caps and clear tubes with the color visible and the Laka name in silver or black.

We haven't tested the gloss, so these details reflect what Laka and Salgu Blossom have published.

For other launches that combine color and gloss, see the ColorPop Super Stain Peel-Off Lip Stain & Gloss Duo and the Kay Beauty Hydra Luscious Lip Gloss Stain.

MUA Hydra Plump Lipgloss and Hydra Plump XL Lip Gloss are new MUA plumping lip glosses made with hyaluronic acid, murumuru butter and peptides. Each costs £4.25 for 6ml at MUA Makeup Academy's own UK store, and both went on sale on 29 October 2026. The two glosses are sold separately, not as a boxed set, and MUA calls them new and improved versions of its earlier plumping glosses.

MUA's other launch this season is the MUA Christmas 2026 Gift Sets.

Updated 29 October 2026: Both glosses are in stock at muastore.co.uk. Superdrug lists both, but neither is available to buy online there yet.

Release Date

MUA announced the launch on Instagram (@muacosmetics) on 28 October 2026. The post said: "Are you ready for some SPICE? NEW Hydra Plump and Hydra Plump XL launching tomorrow… trick or treat!" That makes 29 October 2026 the launch day. Both product pages appeared on muastore.co.uk on 28 October 2026, and both glosses were in stock there on 29 October 2026.

Price

• UK: £4.25 each at muastore.co.uk. That is 25p more than MUA's earlier £4.00 plumping glosses. Superdrug hasn't shown a price yet.
• US and Europe: Not yet announced.

How It Compares with Previous Releases

These are the earlier MUA plumping glosses the Hydra versions improve on:

• MUA Lipgloss - Plumping: £4.00.
• Plump XL Plumping Lipgloss: launched in June 2023 at £4.00. MUA described it as giving a warming, tingling plumping feeling.

Both new versions cost £4.25. MUA's new pages don't mention tingling, and they don't say how long the plumping effect lasts.

Where to Buy

• US: Not yet confirmed.
• UK: MUA has both, at £4.25 each: Hydra Plump Lipgloss and Hydra Plump XL Lip Gloss. Superdrug also lists the Hydra Plump Lipgloss and the Hydra Plump XL Lipgloss.
• Europe: Not yet confirmed.
• Other markets: Availability varies by region, and more international stockists may be added.

Checked 29 October 2026: In stock at muastore.co.uk. Listed at Superdrug, but not yet available to buy online there.

What Makes the MUA Hydra Plump Glosses Different?

• They are new and improved versions of MUA's two £4.00 plumping glosses, now priced at £4.25.
• The Hydra Plump Lipgloss has a new sheer nude pink shade with fine shimmer. The XL version shows as a sheer pale pink in MUA's swatch.
• The packaging is new: a clear tube with a peach-pink cap for Hydra Plump, and red packaging for Hydra Plump XL.

Formula and Packaging

• Hydra Plump Lipgloss: According to MUA, hyaluronic acid hydrates and plumps the lips. MUA says murumuru butter softens and protects against moisture loss, and marula oil adds moisture and antioxidants. The brand says peptides help hydrate and plump fine lines, and light-reflecting pearls make lips look smoother. It comes in a clear tube.
• Hydra Plump XL Lip Gloss: MUA lists the same key ingredients, without the light-reflecting pearls. It comes in a red tube with a metallic cap.

Other plumping glosses we've covered include the Smashbox O-Gloss pH Plumping Lip Gloss and the BUXOM Holiday Power-Full Plumping Peptide Lip Tint Shimmers. You can browse more lip launches in our makeup section.

Pat McGrath Labs' Heavenly Gloss Kit is a new limited-quantity set of four full-size LUST: Gloss lip glosses in coral, peach, gold and nude shades. The kit costs $79 at patmcgrath.com, where it was first seen on 12 October 2026. Buying the same four glosses separately would cost $116. All four shades already exist in Pat McGrath Labs' permanent LUST: Gloss range, so the kit is a new value set rather than a launch of new shades.

It is not to be confused with the Pat McGrath LUST: Gloss Duo Divine Angel, a separate $45 two-gloss holiday duo in Divine Rose and Earth Angel sold at Sephora US and Canada.

Updated 13 October 2026: In stock at patmcgrath.com (US). Not found at Sephora US, Sephora UK or Selfridges. Pat McGrath Labs sells it in limited quantities, so stock can change quickly.

The Heavenly Gloss Kit costs $79 (US) at patmcgrath.com, which labels it "A $116 VALUE." That value comes from the US price of a single full-size LUST: Gloss, which is $29. Four of them bought one by one would cost $116. The brand hasn't confirmed a price in any local currency outside the US. International shoppers see their price at checkout.

What's Inside

The Heavenly Gloss Kit holds four full-size LUST: Gloss lip glosses, one in each shade below. Patmcgrath.com lists a single LUST: Gloss as 0.15 oz / 4.5 mL.

The shade descriptors below come from Pat McGrath Labs:

• Pale Fire Nectar: Coral with Pink Shimmer
• Peach Perversion: Pale Peach with Iridescent Pearl
• Gold Blitz: listed as "Blitz Gold (24-Karat Gold Shimmer)" on the single LUST: Gloss page
• Flesh Fantasy: Lush Pink Beige

Pat McGrath Labs describes the kit as offering "four divine shades of LUST: Gloss for luscious, high-shine lips. From shimmering coral to radiant gold and irresistible nudes." The campaign image shows the four glosses lined up in front of pink-and-gold feathered angel wings. The brand's swatches show Blitz Gold on three lip tones.

Where to Buy

• UK: Not yet confirmed at UK retailers. patmcgrath.com ships internationally.
• Europe: Not yet confirmed at retailers. patmcgrath.com ships to most countries, with customs fees determined at checkout.
• Other markets: Availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 13 October 2026: In stock at patmcgrath.com (US). Not found in searches at Sephora US, Sephora UK or Selfridges.

What Makes the Heavenly Gloss Kit Different?

• It costs $79 for four full-size glosses with a $116 combined single price. The LUST: Gloss Duo Divine Angel holds two glosses for $45.
• The shades run from coral and peach to 24-karat gold and a pink-beige nude, and three of the four carry shimmer or pearl.
• It is a new set of existing permanent shades. Each gloss stays available individually at $29.

Other holiday gloss sets this season include the Danessa Myricks Beauty Gloss Lock Kit and the Urban Decay When Sip Happens Lip Toy Duo. For an earlier Pat McGrath lip set, see the Pat McGrath Mini Nude Venus Lip Trio.

Formula and Packaging

• LUST: Gloss: Pat McGrath Labs sums up the gloss as "Major hydration, mega high-shine." Three of the kit's four shades carry shimmer or pearl (Pale Fire Nectar, Peach Perversion, Gold Blitz), and Flesh Fantasy is a pink-beige nude.

How to Wear It

Pat McGrath Labs suggests first smoothing lips with an exfoliant. Then swipe LUST: Gloss across the top and bottom lips. You can also wear it over PermaGel Ultra Lip Pencil or a base lip colour, focusing the gloss on the centre of the lips.

Smashbox O-Gloss pH Plumping Lip Gloss is the relaunched cult pH-reactive gloss that goes on clear and shifts to a personalised shade of pink. Smashbox brought it back on 27 September 2026 for $26 (US), and it is sold through Smashbox, Ulta Beauty and Macy's. The original was discontinued years ago, and NewBeauty reports that old tubes have circulated on eBay for hundreds of dollars.

Updated 11 October 2026: in stock at Smashbox US and Ulta Beauty; listed at Macy's. UK and other international availability is not yet confirmed.

Release Date

According to NewBeauty, O-Gloss returned on 27 September 2026 as one of five Smashbox lip launches that month. Ulta Beauty currently lists it under New.

Price

The O-Gloss pH Plumping Lip Gloss costs $26 (US) at Smashbox and Ulta Beauty. No UK, Canadian or European price has been confirmed.

Shades

There is one shade, pH Pink. Smashbox says the gloss uses pH-activated pigments that react to the wearer's skin chemistry, turning from clear to "your unique shade of pink". Smashbox's images show a before-and-after comparison of the gloss going on clear and turning pink, plus a grid of the shade on lips across several skin tones.

Where to Buy

• US: Smashbox ($26), Ulta Beauty ($26), Macy's
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• Canada: Not yet confirmed
• Europe: Not yet confirmed
• Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 11 October 2026: in stock at Smashbox US and Ulta Beauty; listed at Macy's; no listing found on smashbox.co.uk, Lookfantastic or smashbox.ca.

What Makes the O-Gloss pH Plumping Lip Gloss Different?

• It changes colour on the lips: it goes on clear and turns into a wearer-specific pink through pH-activated pigments, according to Smashbox.
• It's a revival of a discontinued original: Michelle Shigemasa, global general manager of Smashbox, told NewBeauty the brand is "bringing back an actual icon ... we're introducing an icon to a new generation."
• It has new formula claims: the relaunch adds 6-hour high shine, visible plumping, long-lasting hydration and vitamins C + E, according to Smashbox.

Both versions share the clear-to-pink pH effect. The relaunch adds the plumping, hydration and shine claims. Lori Taylor Davis, Smashbox global pro lead artist, told NewBeauty she remembers the original's "Wait…what is happening?" moment when a clear gloss turned pink on the lips.

Formula and Packaging

• Formula: Smashbox lists vitamin C (ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate) and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate). The ingredient list also includes sodium hyaluronate, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, avocado oil, castor seed oil and menthol. The brand says the gloss visibly plumps lips. It notes that the plumping effect has no specific wear time, and the 6-hour figure refers to shine.
• Packaging: the tube has a pink-to-clear ombré body and a pink cap.

How to Use

Smashbox says to apply O-Gloss to bare lips or over lip liner, then wait a few seconds for the colour to develop. The brand suggests pairing it with its Studio Extreme Longwear Lip Liner.

The Rest of Smashbox's September Lip Lineup

According to NewBeauty, four other Smashbox lip products are part of the same launch wave. The O-Noir pH Cheek + Lip Tint ($25) goes on black and shifts to a personalised berry, and it is a tint rather than a clear-to-pink gloss. The pH Gel Lip Liner ($22) launched alongside it. Earlier in September, Smashbox released the Full Fill-ter Smoothing Lip Glass Balm ($25) and the Studio Extreme Longwear Lip Liner ($25), each in six nude shades.

The pH lip trend has also included the jane iredale Just Kissed pH Lip Oil, a recent pH-reactive lip oil. For more glosses, see our lip gloss coverage, or browse all makeup releases.

Pat McGrath Labs' LUST: Gloss Duo: Divine Angel is a new limited-edition set of two full-size lip glosses in the shades Divine Rose and Earth Angel. The Pat McGrath Labs set costs $45 at Sephora US and C$66.00 at Sephora Canada, and it was on sale at both by 9 October 2026.

Pat McGrath Labs also has a four-gloss holiday set this season: the Pat McGrath Labs Heavenly Gloss Kit ($79 at patmcgrath.com), with Pale Fire Nectar, Peach Perversion, Gold Blitz and Flesh Fantasy.

Updated 9 October 2026: Sephora US and Sephora Canada list the Divine Angel duo. Because it's limited edition, stock can change quickly.

When Did the Pat McGrath Labs LUST: Gloss Duo: Divine Angel Launch?

Pat McGrath Labs hasn't announced an official release date for the Divine Angel duo. A related pairing, the Aliengelic Allure duo, has been listed on patmcgrath.com since 29 September 2026. The Divine Angel set was then seen on sale at Sephora US and Sephora Canada by 9 October 2026.

Release Date

• 29 September 2026: Aliengelic Allure duo listed on patmcgrath.com
• 9 October 2026: Divine Angel duo seen at Sephora US and Sephora Canada

Price

The Pat McGrath LUST: Gloss Duo Divine Angel costs $45.00 in the US, and Sephora gives its value as $58.00. Each full-size LUST: Gloss costs $29 on patmcgrath.com, so buying the two shades one by one would cost $58. The set saves $13 in the US. In Canada, Sephora lists the duo at C$66.00, with a stated value of C$88.00.

What's Inside

Sephora lists these products:

• 2 items: two full-size LUST: Gloss lip glosses
• Sizes: 0.15 oz / 4.25 mL each
• Finishes: one shimmer (Divine Rose) and one pearl-flecked shade (Earth Angel)

Shades

• Divine Rose: the brand describes it as a plum rose shimmer.
• Earth Angel: described as a golden champagne with glittering pink copper pearl.

Not to be confused with patmcgrath.com's own LUST: Gloss Duo Limited Release: Aliengelic Allure. That set also costs $45 ("A $58 value"), but it pairs Earth Angel with Aliengelic, a pink-infused duochrome, instead of Divine Rose. The brand's own site doesn't currently list the Divine Angel pairing. Sephora currently lists Divine Angel.

Where to Buy

• US: Sephora ($45.00)
• UK: Not yet confirmed. Selfridges, Space NK and Cult Beauty don't list the duo. Selfridges sells individual LUST: Lip Gloss 4.5ml shades.
• Canada: Sephora Canada (C$66.00)
• Europe: Not yet confirmed
• Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 9 October 2026: Divine Angel is listed at Sephora US and Sephora Canada. The Aliengelic Allure duo is in stock on patmcgrath.com.

Several other gloss sets launched this season. They include the Danessa Myricks Beauty Gloss On Lock Kit and the Urban Decay When Sip Happens Lip Toy Duo. For the brand's own earlier lip set, see the Pat McGrath Mini Nude Venus Lip Trio.

What Makes the Pat McGrath LUST: Gloss Duo Divine Angel Different?

• It pairs Divine Rose with Earth Angel. The patmcgrath.com duo pairs Earth Angel with Aliengelic instead.
• It contains two full-size glosses rather than minis, at 0.15 oz / 4.25 mL each.
• Sephora labels it "New Limited Edition".

Formula and Packaging

• Divine Rose and Earth Angel (LUST: Gloss): Sephora and Pat McGrath Labs call these "balm-meets-gloss" shades that shine "like the glossiest gloss" and soothe "like the balmiest balm". The brand describes LUST: Gloss as "major hydration, mega high-shine". It calls the formula balm-like and oil-enriched, with a lightweight, non-sticky feel and sheer-to-saturated coverage. No ingredient list is available.
• Applicator: according to the brand, it has a tapered precision tip and a concave centre designed to deposit the formula in one swipe.

Pat McGrath Labs suggests swiping the gloss across the top and bottom lips and repeating if desired. For a custom shade, the brand suggests layering it over PermaGel Ultra Lip Pencil and concentrating the gloss on the centre of the lips.
