Details, Claims & Price
wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze is positioned as a high-shine lip product designed to deliver a glass-like finish with lightweight, buildable color. The formula focuses on shine first, with a jelly texture that creates a mirror-like effect in a single swipe and can be layered for more intensity.
Key claims center on both finish and application. The metal applicator is designed to feel cooling on contact, gliding smoothly over lips and helping distribute the gloss evenly. The texture is described as lightweight and comfortable, allowing you to control the level of shine from a sheer glaze to a more pronounced glassy look.
The formula is infused with lip-loving ingredients, including Vitamin E, Sunflower Seed Oil, and Ginger Root Extract, which are included to help lips look soft and feel nourished during wear.
Directions for use recommend smoothing the gloss onto lips with the metal applicator, following the natural lip shape. A temporary cooling sensation may occur and is noted as a normal effect of the applicator.
Available in 3 shades:
- Berry Squish
- Blush Guava
- Raspberry Crush
This is part of the wet n wild 2026 new products which explains the limited shade range. Over time it should become more widely available to shop.
Where to Buy
wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze is currently available at several major retailers, though in-store availability can be spotty depending on location. Each retailer carries all of the shades.
A special note. CVS displays show a shade labeled Melon Melt. This is a misprint. That shade does not exist. The correct shade name is Blush Guava.

Review
wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze is a fresh take on drugstore lip glosses, offering a high-shine finish with a punchy medium pigment. The flavor and scent are strong watermelon, which is noticeable when applied but not unpleasant.
The standout feature is the metal applicator. It’s the first of its kind from wet n wild at the drugstore level. The metal feels cold on contact with lips, providing a refreshing sensation while delivering just the right amount of product, making it easy to control. Unlike some glosses, it glides smoothly over lip lines for a juicy, glossy look without feeling sticky or heavy.
The color is not buildable. It provides medium coverage that shows but won’t fully cover natural lip tone. After two hours of talking and sipping water through a straw, the shine wears off, leaving behind the color with minimal transfer. It stains the lips slightly but doesn’t act as a true lip stain. Reapplication is easy, and it doesn’t feather or feel weird layered on.
The gloss is lightweight, smooth, and easy to manage. While it contains conditioning ingredients like Vitamin E and Sunflower Seed Oil, it does not noticeably leave lips feeling softer or more conditioned.
For comparison, if you are familiar with my wet n wild Mega Inky Lip Color review or my wet n wild Lip Oil review, this gloss offers a different finish which is focused on shine rather than heavy pigment or intense hydration. It’s best for anyone looking for a quick, shiny layer that can be reapplied throughout the day without sticky buildup or feathering.
This table highlights the key details of wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze for quick reference, including price, shades, applicator type, and overall wear so you can see at a glance what makes it unique and where to buy it.

Wear Test
I tested wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze over several hours to see how it performs in real-life conditions. On application, the gloss is smooth and shiny, with the metal applicator providing a slight cooling sensation that makes spreading the product effortless.
During the wear test, I talked for almost two hours while only sipping water through a straw. The high-shine effect fades over time, but the color remains on the lips with minimal transfer, leaving a subtle stain behind. Reapplication is simple and does not cause feathering or build-up, making it easy to maintain the glossy look throughout the day.
Overall, the wear test confirms that this gloss is lightweight, non-sticky, and easy to manage. It delivers medium pigmentation with a glass-like shine, making it ideal for quick touch-ups and repeated applications without affecting the texture or comfort on the lips.
How to Apply Wet n Wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze for a Long-Lasting Look
To achieve the best results and maximize wear, here’s how to apply wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze for a long-lasting look. Start with clean, dry lips to ensure smooth application. Use the metal applicator to glide the gloss evenly across your lips, following your natural lip shape. The metal tip provides a cooling sensation while helping the product lay down evenly without overloading.
For extra staying power, apply a thin layer first and let it set for a minute before adding a second layer. This builds a glass-like shine without making the gloss feel heavy or sticky. Avoid rubbing your lips together immediately after applying to let the gloss settle.
Reapplication is simple throughout the day. Because the formula is lightweight and non-sticky, you can refresh the shine without worrying about feathering or disrupting the color beneath. Using this method ensures your lips maintain a glossy, juicy appearance for as long as possible.
How to Apply wet n wild Jelly Drip Lip Glaze for Best Shine
For best shine, start with smooth, hydrated lips. Use the metal applicator to sweep the gloss across the lips in a single layer. The cooling effect of the applicator helps the product glide evenly, creating a mirror-like, glassy finish.
To intensify the shine, layer the gloss gradually. Apply a thin first coat, then add a second layer exactly where you want more reflective shine. The jelly-textured formula allows for customizable shine without feeling sticky or heavy, so you can build from a subtle glaze to a bold, high-shine look.
Finish by gently pressing lips together or lightly shaping the edges with the applicator to maintain an even, polished effect. This technique ensures the gloss delivers a maximum, eye-catching shine every time.
