I got this in a set with one of the Lip Shimmers in the skinny packaging. This is nothing like the original Burts' Bees lip balm. It's not minty, and it is somewhat drying on my lips. I much prefer the ones in the skinny packaging, they are nothing like this. The color is very pretty and natural, but what's the point if it messes up your lips and makes them dry?

Out of the other tinted lip balm's I have tried from Burt's Bees, I like Rose the best. It's not too much, it's really just enough if you're on the run and want a tiny bit of color and some moisture. It's a very light tint.

I'm a self proclaimed lip balm junkie and this stuff is awful! It dried out my lips. I think all Burt's Bees lip products are junk but this takes the freakin' cake. Thank goodness I could return it.

I purchased Rose, Hibiscus, and Pink Blossom on a tinted lipbalm binge. I find that they are moisturising and have the perfect amount of colour payoff (it's a "tint" afterall). The packaging, like everyone else mentioned, is superfluous (shame on you Burt!) and definitely adds to the $7something price tag.

Because everyone here mentioned that Rose was a dupe of Fresh's Rose I did a swatch test. I checked it in the sun, in the shade, and in artificial lighting. While Burt's Rose is close, it's not a dead-on dupe. Burt's was obviously warmer, peachy-based, while Fresh's was cooler, berry-based. I love both of them and find that both provide a good amount of moisture to my lips, though I am partial to the tone of Burt's Rose. HTH.

I love this. I bought rose as well as red dahlia because I couldn't decide on which one without trying them on first. The rose colour made me look young and fresh adding that hint of colour to my lips that look natural and pretty. The smell is delicious, and it feels moisturizing and nice on the lips. The packaging could be nicer as it's just in a plain boring brown normal lip balm wind-up tube but still does the job and applies fine.
The red dahlia colour is not as nice on me as rose, I feel it makes me look older whereas rose is a brighter fresh pink and the closest thing I've found to a natural looking touch of colour to my lips.
I don't wear lip gloss much at all so this tinted lipbalm is the perfect substitute for me, it will have a permanent place in my handbag!

Much better than the shimmers, I finally got this on sale when wal-mart was liquidating(?)

I was almost afraid the rose color would be to vibrant - ha! This is the most subtle tinted lip balm I've used in a while - It just make your lips slightly more flushed. I like the smooth feel - it's loaded with natural oils, including coconut, (so don't use if you hate coconut or are allergic)

This BB's line really is similar to the Fresh Sugar one, I'd say Fresh's rose is slightly more gold and tastes amazing, but I'd rather spend 7 dollars than 23 on the same color and concept.

EDIT: Except instead of moisturizing, it dries your lips out. I've stopped using it since. Simple, cheap lip glosses are more protective.

First off, as everyone's been saying, the packaging is extremely misleading. It was like 7 bucks for a tiny ordinary sized tube of balm, when beside it were many more cheaper alternatives that were similar-sized.

As a balm, it's alright in terms of moisture, nothing special..I expected more coming out of Burt's Bees since this is my first Burt's Bees product and everyone raves about their lip balms.

In terms of color payoff, there really is barely any at ALL. If I stared really hard at my mouth maybe I could notice a tiny bit, but it's PINK, not even red! Ugh, so misleading.

I love this lip balm! It is just perfect for those days when you are going for a no-makeup look. It is a natural-looking rosy hue, and of course it nourishes and protects lips just like any other Burts Bees balm. As others have stated, the packaging was a little misleading. I was hoping for a "jumbo stick" instead of the regular lip balm size.

Although this lip tint does give your lips a pretty reddish color, it's not moisturizing at all. It accentuated flakes and I found myself applying lip balm prior to applying this. Kind of defeats the purpose of a tinted lip BALM, doesn't it?
It comes in a standardized chapstick tube, but the weird wooden case fooled me at first. I was wondering why a lip tint can be so thick..
I won't be repurchasing because Fresh's Sugar Rose Tint is a lot better in terms of moisturizing (and also gives a nicer color) although it's around 3 times the price.
Oh the things we do for beauty.

I am always on the hunt for the perfect tinted lip balm. I did not like the older version of this tinted balm but the new one is outstanding. Smooth application, perfect YLBB color (on me), doesn't wear off weirdly & has a pleasant taste. I'll definitely be checking out other colors. continued >>
