This is the nicest packaging I have ever seen for a lip balm, which comes in a silver metal twist tube. The packaging design is great as the lid does not fall out in the purse.

In contrast to the lip fusion glosses, which are my HG lip glosses, this does not plump my lips at all. I have been using this for 6 months and I find this does not moisturize my lips for long. It only lasts a couple hours and needs re-application often. After that, my lips become even more dry. Would not recommend this, considering the high price and non long lasting effects and lack of plumping.

Thanks to Sephora's 75% off sale, I got this in Buff and Bitten. I find them to be moisturizing, certainly more so than Laura Mercier's lip balm, and fairly long-lasting. The colors are so sheer, they are barely noticeable, if at all. As noted by other reviewers, the packaging is great, and you get a substantial amount of product. I can't say that the smell bothers me. I wouldn't pay full price for these; in fact, I doubt I would repurchase even at the sale price. Simply, there are many other comparable lip balms out there at a lower price.

I don't really know what to think about this product! It's like any other lipbalm - at first it's moisturising, then it starts feeling annoying. But the thought that there is some plant extract in it that makes my lips "more hydrated" is the reason I keep using this. I have to say, when I put it on, my lips look more plumped. I haven't seen a dramatic difference, though my balm isn't finished yet. The packaging is really good. I think I will buy it again - I love lipbalms that have "special" ingredients.

Average, at best. It was worth the $5.50 I paid for it on sale from Sephora, but definitely not worth 3 times that at its regular price. I got the clear version since thats all they had left in stock, figuring I could use it over/under other lipcolors and as a nightly treatment. This is basically a standard stick lip balm. I notice no more plumping (short-term, or long-term) than any other lip moisturizer. I've been applying several times a day for the last few days. I can't say its hurting my lips, and it makes my lips look smooth and pouty as long as its on, but so does any other lip balm or gloss. Lasting power is average, 1-2 hours. I really dislike the scent/taste of this, it reminds me of stale Wrigleys spearmint gum. I suppose if it smelled/tasted better, I would like it a lot more. I don't even really care for the packaging, the screw-on lid is nice, but I think the shiny silver tube looks 'cheap'. I'll use up what I have, but wouldn't recommend or repurchase.

I hoped I would love this, but alas. I'm no friend of lipsticks and glosses in general, because I find them drying and/or sticky. So when I discovered the LipFusion Lip Conditioning Stick in Berry, I thought it may fill the dual purpose of conditioning and providing a little colour. The Berry colour is a nice, sheer, cool pink, and it isn't very noticeable on the lips, which I quite like. However, I find this stick exceptionally drying, and within minutes of application, my lips feel like they're shrinking and I have to wipe it off and add a layer of proper lipbalm (thank you, Clarins, for the Moisture-Replenishing Li Balm!). In addition, I also find that as the scent develops, it smells more and more of chemical sunscreen, which is not a positive thing in my ear. So this is not a rebuy, and it will probably just annoy me until I eventually throw it out.

I think i need to find a different balm of a similar color.

I wanted to try a plumping product out of curiosity so I was attracted to this brand. I don't wear gloss often at all so I opted for this tinted balm. I love tinted balms!

The packaging is great, very luxe and closes tight. the color I love, the look I love. however, here are my problems, which were mentioned by others here

- The horrendous chemically taste. sort of like mint and chemicals. mildly tingly but mostly uncomfortable.
-Drying, There is nothing moisturizing about this. You will find hanging bits you didn't know were there.

As for the plumping I don't think its significant. I don't feel like my lips look much different from when I just use a regular tinted balm!

Huge shame. I liked it at first but now I dread it because I am just so sick of the taste.

This product claims to plump up your lips over time depending on how long you keep using it. Honestly, I just bought this for the color and sunscreen (i got berry, and it matches perfectly with my 'flushed' blush from tarte. This gives me a fresh, natural look!). However, I really did notice that my lips were plumper, not significantly, but noticeable to me. My lips tend to look pouty, then not-so pouty at times due to fluctuation in hormones over the course of a month, like most women see. I noticed that if I use this product, my lips stay constantly pouty everyday, no matter what part of the cycle I'm in. That's where I found the biggest difference in lip plumpness.

So far so good. Got this in Buff, which in my NC35 skin is a brownish peach. Kind of a YLBB, though not THAT much a better color. Berry is a little too blue but looks great at night, oddly. Bitten WOULD be a fabulous color except that it is so sheer it simply does not show on me. I wish it had a little shimmer. Goes on nicely, is buildable. Will update. OKAY UPDATE*** I saw that others had experienced dryness, especially around the borders of their lips, and I did too, the first night I used it. Scuffed off the flakes, which were, in fact kind of off-putting but woke up this morning withe flakes gone and the vertical lines on my lips drastically reduced. Also, I feel like I'm getting a pout back in the center of my lower lip. WOW! I have no idea what in this product would cause the exfoliation but I can't wait to get back to the office and put this on again. ** New Update: I don't use this as often as I should because of the very icky chemical sweet taste from the spf.

i got this because of the entire soap and glory target fiasco (i cant get my sexy motherpucker xl anymore.....D!@%%$#
i have used the lipfusion regular and the xl., i always liked the xl fusion better because it worked better than the regular one but i damn sure wasn't kicking out 50.00 bucks for it right now., so i was either going to get two faced lip injection extreme or whatever else i could get for decent amount of jingle., this works ok but i don't think its nearly as good as my sexy mp xl but it'll keep the lip inflation going. i can honestly say that nobody should expect lisa rinna lips after applying this once - this really takes consistent use to see and keep the results. but the hyaluronic sphere plumpers imo work far better than the red stingy ones like lip venom. (which i've also tried - YECH)

not sure if i will repurchase - hopefully we'll get soap and glory stock stateside again really soon.......

I was really excited to try this balm as the colours looked pretty and I liked the idea of it being a bit plumping. Well, after a day and a half of wear, my lips looked atrocious: peeling, with hardness around the edges...definitely the signs of an allergic reaction. Sadly, this had to get returned. Will not be buying Fusion again.

This is an AMAZING product. I have this in "Berry" which is a very sheer medium berry color. It makes my lips look very healthy and blushed. The moisturizing properties of this balm are outstanding. I don't think it plumps but it does moisturize and I love the color.
