I was on the hunt for a mildly-scented (or non scented) lip blam that was NOT in a pot form (i love the convenience of tubes!), and bought this on a whim. I am so happy i did!! It was just what i was looking for! I needed something that would keep my lips moisturized and wouldn't feel or smell heavy on. Great price too, at around $5 cdn. Will continue repurchasing :D

I liked it enough... moisturising, very slightly shimmery. It tasted a little sweet (that was nice, too). The texture is a little drier than I usually like. But like all Body Shop products, more expensive than they're worth.

Not too mad about the smell. Wish it could be slightly better. Good in moisturising and a bonus that it has SPF too. I love that it's in a tube, unlike the lip butter (melon) that I used to have, I now always remember to put this on my lips and so it's not chapped all the time. I think the packaging's quite cute.

I love this stuff! It has a nice light sweet smell and taste and goes on smooth. I'm on my 4th tube of this stuff. It's definitely in my top 3 lip balms. It's a good value for your money and much more effective than chapstick. Leaves no residue just a smooth feeling. Doesn't irritate already chapped lips like I have found other balms such as burt's bees do. Also it's great that it has SPF. Only complaint is that I wish it came in a pot!

It's cheap, but doesn't really moisturise and seems to make chapped lips worse. It doesn't absorb well and tastes weird. I bought it on an impulse but definitely won't go back again.

hands down, way better than the honey lip balm by body shop. this compared to that is...u can't even compare. it's not the best around, but it kind of moisturizes, no yucky feeling after u use it. doesn't leave ugly residue. don't leave it out in the hot sun though...it will melt .

This is an okay lipbalm. It moisturizes okay and it has a SPF, but furthermore itīs nothing special. There are other lipbalms out there like Blistex and Labello that do the same job and have a SPF too...

I bought this because it's difficult to get lip balms with spf, and I'llstick to it beacuse of that (especially in the summer).
Beside that, this lip balm is nothing special at all.
Smells strange too.

For the first few days that I was using this, it gave me real smooth lips and a bit of that refresshed and cooled feeling. But as the days wore on, it started to feel awful (waxier) and I started to develop chapping.

This is the best lipbalm i've ever tried, and I've tried loads.. Even when i was on Roaccutan this lipbalm managed to keep my lips smooth :) I like that is hasn't got a strong smell or taste, great for everyday wear.

This left more of a coating across my lips and didn't moisturise like I thought it would

Usually stick balms are like running a candle across my lips. However, this one goes on more smoothly for a soft matte finish. I use it before I apply any lip liner, lipstick or gloss to provide a moisturising base. It doesn't make my lipstick or gloss application too sheer like some balms do. The bonus is that it has SPF15. For a stick that seems similar to Lip Smackers or Chapstick it is almost double the price but I think it's worth it because I can feel the difference in texture and performance. I would buy again.

Not good at all. Waxy, gunky feeling. Does not moisturize and not even worth buying for the SPF. I would recommend Blistex if you want SPF.

eww.. THis stuff barely works. Very waxy, hardly moistens lips and you cannot keep this for a long time or it'll start smelling weird. I've had this for about 4 months and it smells like garbage. Literally garbage, trash, waste. whatever you want to call it. I recommend you just go to a drugstore and buy a different lip balm. this one SUCKS!

Nice but not great.
Feel a bit waxy in the lip, but it lasts long and has SPF on it (it's important for me).
If I can't find something better, maybe I'll buy this again.

Eh, this stuff is alright. The smell is sort of sweet, I can't really describe it. Not very moisturizing and doesn't come off onto the lips very easily. There's better stuff out there. OK for summer.

This product has sort of grown on me. At first, it seemed to just sit on top of my lips, instead of sinking in. Now, maybe I'm just used to it, it seems to do an OK job moisturizing, and it is an OK base for lipstick. I also like to pair this with a lip pencil for a little color.

Good basic balm that's inexpensive and works pretty well. Because it's waxier than other balms it stays on longer and is a little more persistant in moisturizing. Personally I prefer a smoother balm, but I finished the stick I had!

I don't know what it is about this lip balm, but I love the smell. I can't place what it is but that's what attracted me to this product. It's very moisturizing and works well, but it's a bit thick. I would buy this again, as I already have since my first one went through the dryer.
