I bought this lip shimmer for $5.99 in canada,my shade is in guava.
If you would like to go out and buy this product keep this in mind: find the colour that is like your lip shade if your don't IT WILL look weird.when you put it on it has a minty tingle that goes away after a few seconds,but overall it looks so good on your lips I will be buying more of this but in a darker shade

Though I have no interest in the regular lip balms, I love these because they add just a bit of color, don't taste funny in the least, and come in a slim stick which makes it easier to apply. My favorite shades are Peony and Watermelon. Rhubarb applies lighter than it looks but I only apply one stroke on my lower lip and rub my lips together or else the color is too intense.

This is labeled as a lip balm and its not a bad product, but I think a lip balm should be able to moisturize, and in the winter when my lips are dry the color and especially the sparkle clumps and sticks. I'll admit I'm not exfoliating right before I use it, but again: lip balm. My lips aren't covered in flakes. You should be able to just swipe it on and go.

In the summer they are great and I lost about three, always a sign that a lip product is a winner with me. I tend to throw them in my pocket as I go out and then lose or launder them. Papaya is a weird brownish-pink color but Rhubarb is a winner, a nice berry stain and surprisingly pigmented.

My FAVORITE lip balm. I love the way it makes my lips look! The shimmer and light pink color last a long time and it feels good going on. It also smells good too. I don't go out without it.

So I got this quite recently. I'm new to Burt's Bees but I heard good things about the Lip Shimmers so I went ahead and ordered one in Guava, which is a gorgeous light pinky colour. I love it. It comes in a little stick, it's narrower than other lip balm sticks which can make it a tad trickier to apply but apart from that the packaging is great. Oh also I've found that if you wind it up, you can't wind it down again which sucks. Anyway, the balm itself is so gorgeous and moisturizing. A lot of people seem to think that these are really 'frosty' but I don't get that at all. They give a really gorgeous sheer colour with the tiniest pinch of shimmer, barely noticable. They look healthy and gorgeous and the balm is GREAT. I don't like mint too much but I don't mind it in this, I think it works. Overall, this is a great little product. I don't think it's my HG tinted balm yet, but I definitely rate it. I love lip balms, and this is a great little addition to my collection. 4.5/5.

i have this in radience which is the clear one, but i really wish i would've gotten it in the next light pinkish color which i think is champange? i like the mint smell and the tingly feeling, what i didn't like about the radience was that it was too glittery. i can't really apply too much without it making my lips look white and making feel like a 12 year old because its like glitter/shimmer city. i've seen the product on other people though and it's really best if you get it with a little bit of pinkish color in my opinion

I have this product in "Rhubarb". It is a vibrant crimson shade, has a minty tingle, and does not feel thick or sticky on my lips. However, after it dries my lips feel flaky and dry. I will not purchase this product again.

So far, this is the absolute best tinted lip balm I've ever tried. I have it in "Rhubarb" which is a pretty, deep red shade that's still sheer enough for my pale skin and "Peony" a pinkish-nude just slightly off from my natural color.

Both have the tingly mint I've come to love in Burt's Bees balms. They're not quite as moisturizing as a regular Burt's Bees balm and I feel they're a tad to expensive given the size but those are my only complaints.

Moisturizing and the colours last and are super pretty
I've always loved Burts Bees Products.
Slightly expensive though, since they run around $6 each
