Gloss Bomb has grown well past the original tube, and each formula has a different job. Gloss Bomb Heat is a luminizer and plumper with a hint of tint. Its Plump Job Complex is designed to gently plump, with shea butter and vitamin E for the wet-look shine. Hot Cherry is a sheer red, and the Fussy shade is a sheer pink.

Gloss Bomb Stix is the wandless version. It is a medium pigment gloss stick with vitamin E and shea butter for up to eight hours of moisture. High'Biscus is a pink rose, and Fenty Glow here is a rose tan. Fenty says to tap for a sheer wash of color and swipe for fuller coverage.

Gloss Bomb Oil is a lip oil and gloss in one, with a paddle wand, vitamin E, shea butter, passionfruit oil and hyaluronic filling spheres. Rose Amber is a sparkling cool taupe brown, and Razzberry Jamz is a sparkling bright berry. Gloss Bomb Cream Color Drip gives medium to full coverage with zero shimmer, and its Fenty Glow is a universal rose nude. Gloss Bomb Burst in Pink Blink is a hot pink that gets bolder over time. Fenty says to wait 15 minutes for the effect, and it is a limited edition gloss.

A pairing tip: line the edges with a lip liner, then use the Cream Color Drip in the center for clean, fuller looking color.

What I would skip: the Heat over lips that already feel irritated. Fenty says to stop use if irritation occurs.

Here are the glosses from other brands that shine just as hard, each with its own personality. Anastasia Beverly Hills Luminous Gloss in Peachy is a dazzling golden peach, and its flat paddle applicator helps shape the lip line. Lancôme Juicy Tubes Original in 02 Spring Fling is a creamy millennial pink in a squeeze tube, made for up to four hours of hydration. MAC Lipglass in C-Thru is a peachy beige with shimmer, and MAC suggests concentrating it in the center of your lips for a fuller look.

The cushiony ones follow. PAT McGRATH LABS Lust Gloss in Flesh Fantasy is a lush pink beige in a never-sticky gel. MAKEUP BY MARIO SuperShine in Bare has a glass-like finish with sodium hyaluronate, pomegranate extract and jojoba oil. HUDA BEAUTY Faux Filler in She Glitzy is a sheer clear iridescent gloss with vegan collagen and a big doe foot. ILIA Overglaze in Porcelain is a pale pink pearl that hydrates for up to 24 hours and visibly plumps over time. NARS Afterglow Lip Shine in Triple X is crystal clear with mirror-like shine and up to eight hours of hydration.

A tip: NARS says you can mix shades for custom color, and MAC and Mario both work over lipstick.

What I would skip: a pearly or shimmering gloss over a very matte lipstick when you want a clean, flat look. Use a clear one like Triple X or Bare instead.

Start with the effect you want, then choose the formula. For classic shine, the Gloss Bomb in Fenty Glow or Glass Slipper does it. For a fuller looking lip, try the Heat. For a stick you can toss in a pocket, Stix. For oil comfort with sparkle, Gloss Bomb Oil. If you like a gloss with a different feel, the other brands here are good to try beside it, from a gel to a squeeze tube. I would keep one clear gloss and one shade in rotation, and let the rest be for a night out.
