FAQ
How to get the best results with Lip Melts?
The Lip Melt undergoes a final hot-air smoothing step during filling, which creates a slightly firmer top layer. For the best first-use experience, gently glide the Lip Melt on the back of your hand. Your body heat will warm the surface, allowing the formula to soften and glide on more smoothly for a mirror-like, glassy finish.
The formula is temperature-responsive and melts upon contact: it stays solid in the tube but melts instantly with body heat and light pressure, shifting from a balm to a gloss-like texture that delivers high shine and rich color payoff.
- In colder environments, the transformation may take longer. Warming it up or applying a slightly thicker layer helps achieve stronger glow and smoother payoff.
- In warmer environments, the melt happens quickly, so a light touch is enough for a seamless, glassy finish.
If exposed to hot temperatures, refrigerate for 1-2 hours before use. Softening or oil separation may occur due to plant-based oils and waxes, which is normal and does not affect performance or safety. To avoid breakage, twist up only a small amount of product during application.
Can the Lip Melt twist back down?
Yes it does!
Because the Glassload Lip Melt formula is temperature-responsive and melts on contact with body heat, we co-developed a custom slow-twist mechanism with our manufacturing partner specifically for this product. This design keeps the formula’s softening process controlled, stable, and easy to manage during application. Compared with traditional lipstick mechanisms, our custom core offers three key advantages:
1. Short-stroke twist design: Each twist advances only a small amount of product, preventing it from being pushed out too far at once and reducing the risk of bending, breakage, or surface damage due to the formula’s naturally softer texture.
2. Precise dose control: Twisting approximately two full turns dispenses the ideal amount for a single application. This level of control perfectly complements the Lip Melt’s melt-upon-touch behavior and temperature-driven transformation.
3. Twist-back functionality: The product can be easily retracted after use, minimizing unnecessary exposure, reducing waste, and protecting the product from accidental damage.
Do Lip Melts have a mint flavor? I’m allergic to mint/menthol. Will the Lip Melt irritate my lips?
Yes, our Lip Melts contain a small amount of mint fragrance. This scent is a very light, mint-type fragrance, formulated to be as soft and subtle as possible. The fragrance is IFRA-certified and meets the latest safety standards for leave-on products, and it contains no EU-listed fragrance allergens.
The Lip Melt does not use peppermint oil, menthol, or any mint-derived essential oils. The soft cooling sensation in our formula comes from Menthoxypropanediol. This is a synthetic, low-irritation cooling ingredient, not related to mint extracts.
How it differs from mint ingredients:
- Not a peppermint extract
- Not menthol
- Has no mint smell or “minty sting”
- Much gentler and commonly used in lip care and eye-area formulas
- Typically doesn’t trigger allergies associated with peppermint or menthol.
If you know you react specifically to peppermint/menthol, this ingredient is not in the same allergen group. We also conducted a consumer study with 30 participants, and after 4 weeks of use, 100% reported that it felt gentle and non-irritating.
Lip Melts do not have any plumping or stinging effect, just a subtle, refreshing cooling feel!

I love the shiny pink lipstick

These are so nice and not to mention innovative. The quality and the shipping time were chef’s kiss! The pigment is definitely a one swipe coverage. I purchased Cypher, Stranger, and Geek Out. I cannot wait to purchase more.

Absolutely amazing texture and color!! It really pops and the feeling of it has a slightly minty feel to it.

I received the wrong capsule. I received the acid mode capsule instead of the punk capsule. I was really disappointed that I did not get the punk capsule as it was one of the main factors for my purchase. That being said I love the stranger product and formula, it's exactly what I wanted, just minus the capsule I wanted it in.
Hi there! We are so sorry for the mix up and would be happy to send you a replacement with the correct capsule from your order! Please email our customer service team at support@kaleidosmakeup.com with your order number and brief description of the issue and we'll take care of it for you!

Very nice

very glossy and creamy! it would look amazing with a lip liner as well then just on its own. the pigment on here is medium to light and is buildable. when i received it i had to put it in the fridge for about 2 hours for it to fully cool down.

So amazing and I get compliments on it whenever I wear it! It’s so soft and long lasting not chunky and sticky like other glittery lip stuff. In the picture I’m wearing it with a plum lip liner

I have no notes. It's such a nice shade of purple that you don't get often. I wore it with a purple liner that was about the same shade.

The actual product is lighter than the example's shown. Even with three coats it's still just a different shade than the picture. It's light weight but, if you don't like mint like AT ALL I suggest maybe not getting it. The more layers the more minty it feels.
k
I love this I can't wait to try the other colors

I love the glitter, it’s really there and you can see it. It’s also holographic so if you add it at the center of you lip it looks great!

First of all the texture is amazing it is a lot like the Fenty gloss bombs. The packaging is adorable and I love the refillable replaceable bullets. This color is a cool toned beautiful purple color. If you are looking for a beautiful yet neutral cool toned color this is your girl.

Absolutely love the formula, and all of the products that I’ve tried. This wasn’t my favorite color, but I’ve already ordered another color. ! Ty This gray color would be great for Gothic makeup 💋

Super cute red shade! It’s not as brick red as it looked in the photo but I was hoping it would be more of a burgundy which it is! I got the plain black container which is also smooth and I like the magnet mechanism, it doesn’t feel like it’ll open in my pocket. I recommend!

These are so great. The customizable aspect is super fun and I love the different finishes. They are minty which I like. Geek out is nice to just add a little and cool down any lip combo or you can build it up to be more pigmented
