This is the first Shielding Balm tint that I tried. I was intrigued since it was described as peach and I have been searching for the perfect peach lip color for a natural look. The smell of this lip balm is wonderful: it's like cloves and other spices. There is no taste. Unfortunately, the balm doesn't tint my lips peach - it's basically a dark nude color. However, it is very moisturizing and non-sticky. Most users apply the balm with a finger but I prefer to dab a little on and move it around with my lips. One application satisfies my lips for about 4 hours - in the cold winter.

I'm a fan of Prada Beauty, and the monodose glosses are great. Though I prefer Tint #4 (a perfect berry) #3 is a great peachy nude that works well for nude looks. The SPF is great, the balm is moisturizing and pleasantly scented, and I love the convenience of the tiny tubes.

Wow, I like this. Its a neutral toned peach pink on my unpigmented lips. The formula is so creamy and lux! Definately YLBB. These arent too too too expensive and the tiny little package is cute and easy to slip into a pocket without a bulge or a small purse. I have a few tints but 3 is my favorite and the most pigmented IMO. I'd repurchase.

This is perfect for those days when I want the natural no-makeup look. I only use this during the day to protect against the sun. Not the best all-time lip treatment. Great if you are going to be out in the sun.

Love these balms! The texture is very thick, almost stiff, but "melts" onto lips and feels almost creamy rather than waxy. There's zero scent or taste and they come in teeny, very portable little monodoses that can be reclosed. These are itty-bitty, but last a longer time than one would suspect, since only a little bit is needed for each use. My lips must be more pigmented than I'd thought because tint #3 (which is a definitely warm, darkish, burnt peach) doesn't much alter the look of my naturally rosy lips. It makes them look slightly browner, but the tint is very subtle. This doesn't add any shine or shimmer, too, and gives lips a smooth, kind of matte (not flat, though--more like how buffed fingernails look) appearance.

I cant believe the rating is so low on this! And that it is peach on so many people! Im an NW20 in MAC, and I have very lightly pigmented lips, and on me, I really didnt notice much of color - it just looked like I had clear balm on my lips, until I stood directly underneath a light, and then it looked like a nude lip balm, but no peach at all on me. Its absooooolluuuutely gorgeous! I think this is one of my favorite lippies in the world. I will definitely be rebuying this over and over. And I happen to love the size. I just squirt a little out onto my finger and apply it that way. Ratings: Overall: 5, Price: 3, Packaging Quality: 5.

This is such a strange colour...it's kind of an orangey-caramel. Not your typical peach. I love Prada balm, but I was disappointed by this tint. If Prada ever comes out with a real peach, I'll be the first to buy.

I'm in love. Probably because I've been working on finding the perfect 'not made up' look (using lots of makeup, of course!), and this fits perfectly. My lips look a hundred times better than naked, but no one notices I have anything on at all. And I do love the packaging because I can keep one in every bag and pocket. Even on my highly pigmented lips, this sheer color adds so much. Will definitely buy again.

This is an excellent lipbalm. My lips have been so dry with the weather change so I've slathering on whatever lipbalms I could find around the house. I recently bought a couple of Mac TLC (tint toons) because I thought that would help, but it didn't. So, I found these at Marshalls for about $8 and decided to give them a try. I had done no research on these before I purchased so I had no idea what color #3 was supposed to be. But it looks like a medium nude with a slight orange tinge out of the tube. Applied, it turns my pigmented lips a soft honey nude. Very surprising since it's a lipbalm, so I wasn't expecting so much color payoff, especially in a nude color. It softened my lips almost immediately, and no flakes or peeling now. Also, as a previous review mentioned, it filled in the lines of my lips and gave it a smoother, more toned appearance. If I could find these again for $8, I would definitely repurchase. But I would pass if I had to pay fullprice for such small tubes of lipbalm, even though they were this great.

This lip balm is definitely different from any other lipbalm that I've tried. The packaging is perfect, though I guess I was slightly put off by the amount of wrapping. I'm not sure that each individual lipbalm tube has to come in it's own envelope. I hadn't opened the box until I read the reviews here. I can see how the colour may not work for everyone, but I am a medium skin toned Asian(MAC NW25) and I found that the "peach" worked really well on me. I didn't find the balms overly pigmented and though there is a tint of colour, it's not that noticeable on me. The scent reminded me of sunscreen. I'm tempted to rush out and buy more.

See my review on Untinted for comments on Prada lip balm in general. Tint 3 is called "Peach" but it's more of an orangy nude. It's not peach at all. This is a lousy color for me, so I only use it as a base for lipsticks. Will not re-purchase Tint 3, but I will re-purchase Prada in clear and Tint 4.

Prada makes one of the best lip balms out there. It is so thick it is almost hard to get it on - but that is why I love it. It lasts through the night to give you a true moisture teatment while you sleep. It is the only balm that I can truly see results with. Great for day too as it has SPF 15. Slight hint of shine, bit of an orange essence smell. No flavor. Prada tints have more pigment than many balms and can almost be used as lipstick with a liner. #3 Tint is an orange based nude. More orange in it than #1 - I only use this one at night as the color is just awful with my cool toned, FFF skin/brunette hair. The quality of the treatment makes up for the color.

As much of a Prada fan as I am, I have to admit I didn't like this at all. It's a yucky opaque brownish-peach colour. The peach didn't show up on my lips but it made my lips seem opaque and dirty! I'm glad I didn't buy a full-box of this; I only got one tube of this when I got the lip tint box. I through the tube out after trying it twice (once with liner, once without). Will definitely not purchase the full-size.

I have #2 and love it but this might as well have been clear because I couldn't get it to shop on my lips.

I have to agree with Thaliaucla...this didn't show up at all on my lips...seems like #4 and #5 are the only ones that show even a hint of color on my lips.

This is a strange color and did not show up on my already pigmented lips. I like the quality and texture of these very much. They are not as slick as the regular lip balm. I will quickly swap this color away though and try the other colors.
