Ugh, like every other reviewer on here I though this SUCKED. Why in the hell would you make a lip 'protectant" that dries out your lips worse than before you used it?? The only thing that makes sense to me is that by making your lips feel dry it encourages you to put more on, therefore using more of the product and running out faster then having to buy more. Tricky tricky. Too bad for them that I am one chick that will definitely NOT be buying this crap again. Oh and while this stuff smells nice in the tube, it get's kinda nauseating after it's been wafting up your nose for a while from your lips. This one's going in the trash.

As other reviewers already have mentioned, this lipbalm is by far THE WORST out there. It smells good and it has SPF 15, but that's about it. Do not waste your money on this. Get Carmex or good old ChapStick.

What in the world were they thinking???If this is spa quality then i'll never want to step into one.I reaaly liked the packaging though...small,pretty colors, and cool smells.I didnt know which one to choose of the three because there smells were so soothing.But i tried it on and OH MY GOD....my lips were moisturized for like 25 seconds(seriously) and then they became SUPER dry.Drier then before...They started PEELING!!!I thought it was wierd but i kept using it like an idiot.After those 25 seconds i'd say to my friend "Do my lips look dry?" and she'd say "no".But they felt dry so i checked my mirror and sure enough they looked glossy.What the heck is this stuff???it looks good but feels horrible....NEVER NEVER NEVER again!!!Now im stuck with super dried lips that peel so much...i've tried everything even vaseline and my lips STILL peel...what a nightmare!

Smells really good, but gave a weird feel to my lips. They were glossy but felt dry at the same time..will not buy again.

I bought these a while ago, but never used them. After reading the reviews I didn't see how it was possible that they were really that bad. I was wrong. I decided I had to test all three out today to check. Each one wore off faster than the last, and they smelled sickening. There was no moisturizing. Another product I pitched.

I tried the Blistex Herbal Answer which I liked a lot. So I thought that this would be good as well. I was wrong, they smell good but the moisturizing effect lasts for 1 second before my lips feel dry again.

i hate this stuff! its soo greasy and it just sits on ur lips and does not absorb whatsoever. i lost my blistex complete moisture so i thought i'd try something new... bad idea! do not buy this! i also love how they packaged it in 3 so you have to spend extra money on crappy chapstick. by the way, if you actually loook at the individual chapsticks, they're actually shorter than the standard size.. will never ever buy again!

thankfully, I got this for free when I bought my beloved medicated lip ointment. this stuff smells great and feels great on, but that feeling only lasts about 20 seconds, no exaggerations! the product wears off before it even has time to moisturize any part of my lips, and it's not like I'm constantly rubbing my lips together or eating/drinking(and even if I was, I have tons of lip products that can last through that too). at one point it wouldnt come out of the tube when I turned the dial; the packaging sucked! :( my dog ended up chewing it up, and this is probably one of few chapsticks I haven't mourned throwing away.

Crap! Crap! Crap! Crap! Crap! This stuff made my lips feel WORSE! I left my trusty Aveeno Essential Moisture at work over the weekend and decided to buy something different. I got a free sample of this along with their Medicated LIp Balm. Both were awful on my lips and actually made them worse. By this morning, I had a slight red line all around my lips. Thank God I'm back at work with my Aveeno - my lips feel better already.

I've always been a big fan of MUA and rely on these helpful reviews before buying a new product, and finally decided it's time to become a poster. What motivated me is how terrible these lip balms are, as per the majority view. Fortunately they were free (press gift), because each one of them was worse than the next. They offered no moisturizing benefits at all to my lips and seemed to aggravate them even more. Note to Blistex: Who cares about "uplifting" or "invigorating" fragrances in your lip balm when you have chapped, peeling lips?! Stick to the basics.

These actually dry out the lips instead of moisturizing them!

CRAP!!!! It was almost as if they dried out my lips even more!!The greasy stuff just sits on top of your lips doing nothing and I found myself having to re-apply every 5 minutes. It's so ODD because they suck up all the moisture from your lips so your constantly re-applying it ....total PIECE OF S**T!!!

Don't buy this. It seriously dries your lips! Actually, it never ever sinks into your lips to moisturize them, but leaves a layer on your lips that will disappear into thin air in no time at all (and I MEAN something like 1 minute, seriously!)- leaving your lips dry and cracked. I would even go as far as saying this balm seems to soak up the moisture in your lips. No kidding, this is how they feel!!!!

Crap, crap, and more crap. i picked these up this weekend looking for something new. they were a complete waste of money. The smells were nice at first, and so far ive only used the blue one, but the more i use it, the more it reminds me of vapour rub. it leaves my lips dryer than they were before i applied it. it feels slimy going on, then evaporates in under a minute. do not buy, do not bother.

These balms looked so cool in the store, with the clear-gel formula and the unique flavours (for a lip balm) I thought I might as well give them a try. They suck! They provide no moisture whatsoever and sit on your lips for like 2 mins. I only gave them a 2 because of their super-yummy flavours, vanilla plum (my fave), cucumber melon and grapefruit euclyptis or something. I don't recommend these :(
