Clinique Superblams are BY FAR the best lip glosses I have ever tried. Great applicator, easy to carry, not sticky, moisturizing, and subtle and shiny shades. I bought this in a set and this is my favorite shade in it. LOVE this!

I love this product. The Superbalms are the perfect amount of shine and moisture without too much goopiness, stickiness, or scent. Mango is the perfect very very sheer touch of peach color with tons of wet shine. Love this for everyday, natural color. Retails for $10.50.

The packaging is nice, clean and neat. The actual tube is great because the applicator is lip shaped which makes for easy application.

Instantly my lips felt softer, fuller. The hue was basically sheer and shiny with just a hint of a juicier, pink-orange color, basically it enhanced the color of my natural lips. Not goopy or sticky--perfect consistancy.

I love this gloss and it's a new staple. Although the tube is very small and $11.50 isn't cheap--it's just great gloss. I'm not a big fan of clinique at all, but this stuff is great. Be sure to try it!

I received this as part of the four-balm set -- based on reviews, I had a feeling these tinted balms would be just my kind of thing, and they absolutely are! Even though my lips are somewhat pigmented, I feel washed out without any colour on my lips, and I often feel *dry* without a gloss or balm. I don't wear lipstick, and opaque glosses often feel like "too much" on my usually faux-natural face, so sheer tinted glosses/balms are my obsession!

Enter Superbalms! I LOVE these! I was a bit afraid of the Mango, as it looks pale orangey in the tube -- though I have warm colouring with my pale, pale skin, overly warm lip colours can look peculiar on me. I've not been colour-tested, but I'd say I'm in the NC20 range.

Well, I needn't have feared. The balm is *very* sheer, and just provides a hint of *slightly* peachy sheen to my lips that is very flattering. It feels *wonderful* on, and lasts for a good long time if I'm not eating or drinking. It doesn't feel like it is drying my lips out, but does as it says -- acts as a balm while providing the lovely look of a sheer gloss. My new HGs!

Grrreat colour and good gloss/balm. I hate the tubes though. Always have to squeeze the life out of the tube after a while to get the product out.

Superbalm lip treatments are great. They are smooth and shiny. This is my favorite tint because I love the color. It's YLBB. I believe the orangish tint would look different on other shades of lips, but on mine it was my natural reddish shade but enhanced with a hint of coral. Very nice.

Love this! I'm addicted to lip balms. I've tried like 100 of them and let me tell you this is the best one I have ever had. It really softens the lips, lasts a very long time and isn't sticky! Mango tint is very sheer, at least on my pigmented lips, and just adds a bit of coral color. But it looks really healthy. And it's not sticky! I bought this a week ago and haven't worn any l/s or l/g since then, just this! Will repurchase again and again and again :)

This tinted balm is just okay to me, nothing special. First of all, the color is barely noticable, and my natural lip color is fairly light. It does give a decent amount of shine, has the look of a gloss. These are not as moisturizing as other tinted balms I have tried, such as Neutrogena. They are also really sticky for a balm. I prefer a balm that is smooth and really sinks in to the lips, as opposed to sits on top. I keep this on my nightstand to use at night if my lips are feeling really dry.

Oh boy. Superbalms. I love them! They are sticky, but less than Lancome JT's (definitely less than MAC lipglasses); however, for that reason they have quite the staying power. The feeling on the lips is awesome, cushiony, very moisturizing - if you can picture something sticky and soothing at the same time, that's a Superbalm.
 
I bought this with the set of 4. They're all very shiny on. Mango Tint looks very orange in the tube but applies almost invisibly. It just lends a little bit of a nudeish warmth to the lips. I can see it looking gorgeous on someone who's very cool complected, but on my warm NC20 skin it's just clear lipgloss that doesn't do anything for me. I still wear it on top of other lipcolors because it does moisturize well.
 
The tubes have slanted tips, and they're tiny in the set of 4, but I'm not one to reapply stuff much, so I'm sure they will last. They were fairly expensive, even through eBay, but for the amazing quality of this product I will repurchase - just not this particular shade.

Clinique Superbalms are the most moisturising lip glosses I've ever tried!! Mango is what you'd expect of the name... an unscented, sheer orange-y tint that amazingly compliments my cool skintone. These only have a very slight tint so don't expect them to show on your lips if they're quite pigmented.

This is by no means my HG lip balm, but it sure is fantastic. I have this in grape and the mango and love them both equally. I like this because it is super shinny and nourishing, with just a hint of subtle color...I like to mix this with a bit of Melon pigment for a nice peachy gloss. Love it and will purchase again and again.

I got this in a GWP and love it just like my other Superbalm! It moisturizes my lips like crazy and gives them a nice glossy finish. This particular shade gives a nice peachy tint to my lips as well which I really like. I would buy again! :)

This stuff is so great! I love the color. I thought that this would be sticky like their Glosswear for Lips, but it's not at all! Just smooth and shiney! The color is so sheer, but its really pretty. :-)

I purchased this yesterday and I absolutely love it! It goes on very sheer and the texture is wonderful! It made my lips very smooth, glossy, shiney and moisturized without all that gooey, sticky mess most lipglosses tend to have. This will be a definate repurchase and I will have to try the other colors!

I love the balm/gloss. Just a tiny hint of color, it gets to work immediately - softens my lips really well. It's great for winter, when my lips tend to get dry frequently. would buy again, probably in another color to test other possibilities

Raspberry Superbalm was my first and I was so impressed that I quickly swapped for Superbalm Plum and Mango also. This is a very soothing, thick balm that softens dry lips, particularly during the punishing months of winter. It does have just the slightest bit of glossy shine and a peachy tint that subtly enhances my lips. Just because of my coloring, I slightly prefer the shade on the Plum Superbalm, but all of them are so subtle that I could pick up any of them and be happy with the results. Especially the softening results!

I'm not too keen on the smell but I love the way it moisturizes as well as looks good. Easy to apply and really does moisturize your lips. In your lips it looks like you've got one of 'em famous Juicy Tubes as it's so glossy.

I bought this a while ago and I have to say, Iam impressed. I love the slightly rosy/peachy shine it imparts on my lips. I have three complaints for this Superbalm though, one being the smell--it smells absolutely rotten. Two being the packaging, sometimes it's hard to squeeze out and you either get too much or too little. And the final is that it slightly expensive, even though it's not really terribly expensive. I think I paid $13.50 USD at the Clinique counter? That is a little too much because you don't really get alot but this still is a nice lip color.

Great wearing gloss. Similar to Juicy Tubes (but Mango Tint really has no color that shows up), though it's a much thicker formula, which I enjoy a lot more. It makes it easier to apply and also lasts longer. Great if you're looking for a high-gloss shine and best of all, lip conditioning.
