This is one HG lip balm for me. I love the pink shine and non-sticky texture. It makes my lips feel very comfortable so I often use it at night. The fruity flavor is light. My first pot lasted well over a year and I have a backup. Only wish it was in a tube for easier application. Get this on sale and it's a real bargain.

I use this mostly as a night time balm. I just put it on my lips before bed and my lips are soft in the morning. I don't like to use it during the day because it's a little sticky, makes my lips look too red at times, and doesn't have SPF. I probably wouldn't buy this again, only because I have plenty of balms to use at night.

This is an amazing product. It does everything it should do (except no SPF). It has a sweet pink tint and stays on for over two hours. Tastes good too.. and leaves lips soft and replenished. One lippie less for no SPF.

This balm gives my lips a nice sheer red tint and it does a good job moisturizing, but the smell is SO strong. It's not a bad scent, per se, but it's just too much too have it that close to my nose all day. I don't know if I'd repurchase, and that's really the only negative thing about this balm but it just really bugs me.

I tried the mint one a while back but it felt really waxy and didn't shine so i was a little hesitant to try this. This one's texture is so creamy and moisturizing, and it is nice and glossy and leaves a really sweet, fresh pink tint. Not bright pink, a reddish muted pink. Even after I've licked it off or it's worn away my lips still feel soft and look really healthy. Yes, a bit pricey for a drugstore lip balm, but considering this is also lip color and gloss and it really a lot better than anything else in Walgreens, I will keep buying. :)

I really like this balm. It leaves a nice sheer red tint and also moisturizes. The scent is subtle and not too overwhelming like some glosses.

I got this as a free gift with a Neutrogena foundation and was very pleasantly surprised. The texture is great, very soothing to dry lips. I love this product in winter, because it's so moisturizing. It smells yummy, and I love the color too. It looks punchy in the tub, but it goes on incredibly sheer. It would be very pretty with a tan in summertime. I will agree that the price is a little steep for the amount and I wish this came in a different container. Gloss under the nails isn't fun. I will definitely repurchase this again.

This stuff is fab!!!!!!!!!!
I thought $8 was a little steep for a d/s lipbalm...until I smoothed this stuff on. It's amazing! Awesome texture, like a gel and almost "cushy" on the lips...great staying power and the tint is really flattering. I imagine this product would suit almost everyone. And it really is a great moisturizing lip treatment! It has the beauty of a gloss with the funtions of a balm. Pure genius, Neutrogena!

This is absolutely my favorite lip product. I wear it alone for a nice sheer pinky-red tint, or apply it over (and under) lip color for a color and shine boost. I love the scent and the texture is just thick enough to stay on my lips without feeling like I have a paste on. I used to be a Chapstick/lip balm addict, but this has taken their place. Superior moisturization.

I'm always on the lookout for lightly tinted lip balms, so I snapped this up after discovering that Neutrogena's other lip balm, the honey-flavored one, was great. This balm is similar to the honey one in terms of texture (a bit on the thick side) and stickiness (not so much sticky as fairly tacky). Nevertheless, the mild thickness of the balm helps it stay on the lips more than a thinner balm. The reason why I took off a lippie, though, is because of the scent -- so artifically fruity and super strong too. But the coloring (a bright cherry red in the pot, but a natural pinkish-red on my lips) is very nice. Overall, since it helps keep my lips tinted and noticeably more moisturized, it's among the best tinted balms I've tried out.

This lip barm works great! It soothes my lips instantly and leaves a pretty natural tint. I wear it overnight to counter the dry weather here in LA. Every morning I wake up my lips feel soft. I think it's gonna be the first lip balm that I will use up.

awesome. color and texture-wise, what i'd been looking for. looks pretty as hell on but still really natural, especially as i don't dig color on my lips. had the honey, liked it- love this.
its evil lies in the scent though. why they chose to make it identical to that of the l'oreal color pulse is beyond me. not nice.

This is a cute lipbalm/gloss. It's a bright, fruity red in the pot but is actually fairly sheer and gives my medium-pigmented lips a pretty, pinky-red shine--a nice, very subtle red for the workday that still manages to brighten up my (PPP-MMM/AAB) face. Texture is pleasantly unsticky, smooth and 'clingy' without being greasy or waxy. Scent is fairly strong but not unpleasant--a generic sweet, fruity scent--and there's an accompanying Kool-Aid-like taste. Comes in a little screw-top pot (not the most convenient thing but it doesn't bug me too much) and there's a good amount of product. The price (around 7 USD) is questionable but I do like this little balm and see it as a good compromise for days when I don't want to choose between having soft lips (I get really chapped in the cooler weather) or pretty lips :)

I really love this stuff. It conditions your lips well, leaves a little shine and a tiny bit of pink color. It's great on days when I'm not wearing much makeup but I still want my lips to look nice. Actually, it's great everyday. I like the smell, it's not overwhelming. The container is really cute, and so far it seems pretty sturdy. Sometimes it can get hard, so the thing I do is use a blowdryer to warm it up and then it has a really nice consistancy. The only bad thing is the price, it's a little expensive considering how tiny the pot is. And also if you have long nails then the balm will get under them. But I still really love this, and it's something I use above all of my other lipbalms/glosses.

I originally got this in a swap from someone and waited a long time to use it. I purchased another one yesterday. It's a nice balm that I usually put on my lips at night to keep them soft. However, I just got permanent makeup (full lip color) and I'm thinking about using it everyday for a nice sheen. It's not too sticky, has a nice, subtle, fruity scent and gives your lips a nice pink sheen.

I took off one lippie because I'm not a big fan of pot style glosses but I can make do for this product. In fact, I think this product is less sticky and gives more moisturization than my HG Kiehl's Black Raspberry gloss. Plus, I can pick it up at the drugstore which is a definite plus.

Absolutely positively cannot live without this stuff. It was a random impulse purchase at target for either $5 or $6. It's lasted me so far 6 mo and is only about half gone - and i use it many times per day applied with either my finger or my little l'oreal lipbrush.

it's a clear barely red tinted gloss that's just the right combo between silky, slippery and sticky. i apply it very minimally. no one would ever guess that it's red tinted once it's on me.....totally mlbb. also looks fab over any lipstick that i want to gloss up.

My friend got me this product one day when she was at Wal*Mart. I tried it and i absolutely love it. It has a light fruity smell that doesnt over power your nose when you put it on and it has an excellent colour to it. The only thing I can find wrong with it is when you first put it on it looks a bit blotchy but after it sinks in a bit it looks fabulous. I would definately recommend it.

Pleasant surprise! A friend gave this to me as part of a birthday gift - I don't think I would have purchased it on my own (high priced for a drugstore product and I'm not a big fan of lip products in pots). Sheer red color, mild fruity scent, subtle sweet flavor and the staying power..better than any other balm I've tried. I agree with other reviewers, the cap does seem a little flimsy - I'm careful about putting it back on. Overall a great product that I will probably repurchase.

Awesome awesome lipbalm. This is exactly the product I have been looking for, and I dont know why I hesitated buying it for so long. The sheer red color is just beautiful, and like others have said, comparable to Benefits Benetint balm--only better! The texture is smooth like a balm but pretty and glossy like a gloss. I lurve this stuff and I can see myself getting very into it! Awesome!
