I was a bit scared of the color at first - I thought it might be too orange. But it looks very natural on my lips and gives just the right pop of color. Will especially be nice for spring/summer - will look lovely with bronzed skin.
Hope they'll never discontinue!

What an amazing product! Love the orange-coral shade that I've yet to see in other brands. I have never been disappointed by tinted lip balms but have never been amazed by any either. That all changed when I came across this product. I have gone an re-bought this and loved it just as much. Has a sweet and fresh scent that reminds you of summer parties. I usually use it under a sheer coral lipstick and it brings out the colour beautifully!

This color is AMAZING!!! This is how I want my lips to look all the time. It's a peachy orange and looks very natural. It looks good on every skin tone from pales, yellows, browns, to dark. I have made my siblings and friends try it and it always looks amazing on every single one of them. It enhances their natural lip colour no matter whether you have pigmented lips or not. It's a lovley balm too it's quite moisturizing. It does not stay on long perhaps an hour? But it's a balm and it's expected. I just have one wish: It had SPF. SPF is huge for me I really need it so now I can only wear this balm in the house and I try to achieve the beautiufl color by using orangey peachy stains which kind of work but never end up looking as beautiful as this one. If anyone happens to know of a peachy like stain or a gloss with spf LET ME KNOW :D. lol, thanks. Anyways, try this lipbalm if you don't mind SPF and if it's in a pot. I like it being in a pot although I do understand the unsanitory and inconveniant usage of this but because when you use your finger to apply anything on your lips it always ends up looking more natural than using a tube's end or a brush to apply it so I don't mind it. Plus you can control the amount you use. I have already purchased a second tub of this.

I am up in the air about this one. I really hate the packaging, I don't want to stick my fingers into the product unnecessarily. The product itself is okay, nothing special. The colour payoff is quite good for a balm type product. I don't see a benefit in using this over the mango butter lipstick, I much prefer the texture and colour of the lipsticks to this balm.

This is a very light hydrating lip balm. The packaging could be better; I'm not a fan of pots due to the room it takes up in my purse, plus ease of use. It's not the most moisturizing, but is better than some others I've tried. It also does not last very long.

Love love love this product, it healed my dry, chapped lips in a day. I am a bit of Lip balm addict and have tried almost every brand available. Now I am not too mad about the fragrance, but love the results. A small jar bought for €7.50 will last me for at least 3 months.

Quite nice lip butter with lots of pigment in a see-through formula. Tastes good, my husband likes it! I will not re-buy however, because I look better in berry-shades, since I have a "cold" skin type color.

This makes my lips so soft and is a subtle orange hue. I can make it darker by using more, but what i usually do is mix it w/ my favorite chapstick or lip gloss. I love peachy colors. This smells good too (a floral hint to it too, I think).

I bought the mango lip butter in a trio set with pomegranate and guava. The product comes in a cute little pot (not so hygienic but very cute to look at - it looks very European to me) and looks like a bright coral color in the pot. IMHO it doesn't smell like mango at all (just like how the guava didn't smell like guava at all either). It just smells artificial, but still pleasant. If you read the ingredients, it's not all natural.
When you apply it, it feels like real slightly melting butter. Silky and smooth to the touch. It also imparts a lovely peachy coral tint to the lips. The lip butter is soft, light and not sticky but doesn't last very long. I always feel like I have to reapply to keep the tint on and to keep my lips hydrated. I don't think I would purchase again. It's expensive and I'm looking for really NATURAL products.

This is my first Korres product and all I can say is WOW! I am in absolute love with this lip butter...not only is the texture out of this world but it also smells amazing (Reminds me of YSL Rouge Volupte) and gives a cute touch of color. Def any girl's best friend in the summer. This will so now be my HG lip balm! Can't wait to try more of their product line!!!

This product is in my top three for lip products. I love how moisturizing and how natural the product appears when on my lips. It gives my lips a nice red tint without being overpowering. Sometimes it is a pain to use since you have to use your finger to apply it and it the future I plan to try out the tube version of this product.

If you haven't tried Korres before, don't hesistate. The ratings do not lie. This is definitely a product worth trying. I have tried just about every brand of lip product available. I just bought a Chanel lipgloss and was so disgusted by how sticky it was. Korres is proof that you don't have to spend a ton of money to get a quality product. I have had this lip butter for over three months now, and still have quite a bit of product left with regular use.

I just got this mango lip butter a week ago, and I find that I can't stop using it! I love everything about it except the jar packaging, but I realize it probably wouldn't work well in any other kind of packaging.

The mango scent is prominent but light and fruity. It doesn't smell like real mangoes - more like artificial mangoes. But it still smells delicious.

These butters are great. I have them in three colours. They smell delicious, deliver just the right amount of colour and have this silky finish on the lips. I use them over my usual lip balm - Carmex or Blistex, as I have severly dry lips. They're like something between tinted lip balm and a gloss. As they're not sticky I think they could be used also as a cheek colour. Must try..

I found this to be the most moisturizing of the lip butters, as well as having the smoothest consistency. While it's definitely not *the* best lip balm I've ever had, to me the Korres lip butters are more like sheer lipglosses that just happen to be hydrating. I love the peachy, orangey color of Mango--very summery.

The only thing that stinks is that it comes in a pot and makes reapplying a bit unsanitary once you leave your house. It's a pretty color, smells fruity and delicious, and not sticky at all. I love putting it on my lips!

I love this lip butter! First of all, it actually does what it advertises! It's really moisturizing and long lasting, and the colour of a nice sheer coral that goes really well with my skin tone (golden/olive asian skin tone). Another thing is that you can build up the colour, which is really nice. The lip butter comes in a pot, though Korres also makes this in a tube, except it's really hard to get the product out, so I prefer the pot. The packaging is nice as well, no over packaging, just a small little box. I live in Canada, and got this at Sephora for $13, which is a bit pricey, but it is definitely worth it, because it lasts long and it actually works! Definitely rebuying.

Had you checked out my other review on Korres' Lip Butter in Pomegranate, you would know that I am absolute LOVER of it! I've been waiting for Mango to restock FOR-EV-ER. I couldn't take it anymore and traveled to three, count 'em - THREE, different Sephoras to pick it up. Went to the Sephora in Claremont and it was the last one in the store! Phew*
Cannot stress enough how amazing this product is. I love the mango even MORE than my beloved pomegranate! Not quite sure if it's because spring is approaching and the corals seem more appealing to me rather than the jewel tones, but the smell is even more appealing!
It's everything you'd ever want in a lip balm - moisturizing, definitely not sticky, has a hint of color & looks totally natural!
Seriously, totally worth the 10$ because really, a little goes a long way.

I have purchased wild rose and mango. Out of the two, wild rose has to be my ultimate favorite over the mango even if the coral color of mango is more wearable and matching with my asian skin tone.

It has a great smell at first, but I feel like it's not as "natural" the more I smell it. The color doesn't last that long, which is kind of a disappointment, but it does keep my lips moist and very soooofffttt after.

I don't quite like dipping my finger in pot and things, so that was a little annoying to dip my finger in the pot to apply the product, but I can't complain since they did come out with the lip glaze, or lip butter in a tube.

Got this in a sale/swap on LJ & for pretty cheap might I add. I love it! It really is like a butter for your lips, I do like the scent of this, doesn't smell offensive or fake. It gives a nice hint of color to your lips when you want something other than chapstick :) really great purchase for me, I'd love to try more lip butters from Korres! The only thing I dislike, is that I don't love dipping my finger into the pot all the time, although you could always use a lipbrush!
