Best smelling lip balm ever!!!! The only thing that I don't like about it is that it's tinted, but other than that...I LOVE IT!!!

I waited for YEARS for this to get to Canada! My Turkish gave me some about 6 or 7 years ago and I nursed it for a long, long time. I like the smell of this far more than the cherry but the colour isn't perfect. Bit too orangey-red. I do still love it, though. Whoever thought it was sticky is crazy, far more of a waxy feel.
Delightful scent!

Update: they added sparkle to this product, which is unimpressive; it WAS a gorgeous glossy Labrynth red... now it's a bit on the shimmery side. Bummer.

To be honest, I bought this lip care thing out of an error purchase.
Though the color suits me perfectly and the waxy feeling feels like
my lips had been moisture is good, I still think that I do not really like it due to the fact that it do not last long and had to be re-applied frequently which is pretty much a hassel. RATE it 3 mainly because the color goes well with me other than that I will only give it a 1.

I like the sheer colour it gives and waxy look. Does not last long on the lips though so you'd have to reapply a lot and you use it up pretty quickly. I only like lipbalms that have sheer colour so this is prefect..

This is a neutral, subtle red that's slightly more pigmented than the average lips, making it an ideal MLBB shade. Compared to the fuchsia-red Cherry, I'd say Strawberry would flatter pretty much every skintone. More glossy than the average lipbalm, but not as shiny as lipgloss. Color's more subtle than lipstick, but more pigmented than the average tinted balm. Very moisturizing, feels light, not waxy, but may need touchup every 3-4 hours, which is no big deal thanks to the user-friendly packaging, I can take off the cap and twist up the balm all using one hand, unlike other tube balms which tend to require both hands. If you can't tell, I'm lazy and any product that's high maintenance won't take long to become unloved and weeded out.

So if you're up for a cheap, practical, pretty everyday lippie, give this a chance.

Got this on sale for $1.99 and I cannot say how pleased I am with this product! I have over 15 different lip balms and glosses, and I can honestly say this is the best one I've tried. My most recent purchase was "Say Yes to Carrots" in mint and I thought it was great, but this Nivea strawberry balm makes my lips very soft and adds a bit of colour as well. Definitely would recommend! :)

I love this product!
It makes my lips so soft, and I love the color!!
I hate wearing lipsticks and this is a great alternative~
And I love the smell of it too~ :P
The only problem I had with this was the bulky packaging....
I don't really like how big the tube is~
But other than that, I love it <33

so many people compliment me about my natural reddish lips
once my classmate said that im not allowed to wear lipstick at school
but i told her i wasn't wearing any lipstik but i was using this product

but currently im quite anemic so my lips aren't as red as it used to be
so im going to buy this product after i finish my vanila flavoured chapstick and vaseline.

i hate wasting lip balms but oh well
i guess im a compulsive lip balm buyer

Started using it when i saw my sister have really red pretty lips without any lipstick on. However I have constantly peeling and chapped lips and this really didn't help with moisturizing the lips. The redness sort of sticks to my peeling lips as red lumps. HOWEVER, it really helps when i apply it every night before i go to sleep, the lip will be softer the next morning! Really like the scent of it and the taste though (:

I got this for £1 and its brilliant! I found it moisterised my lips well and stopped them getting too dry, it smells lovely and adds a sheer red tint. Also, it doesn't feel too heavy as many lipbalms do. I wear it under lipsticks to stop my lips getting dry but on its own it does wear off quite quickly, as do most lipbalms i suppose. Would definitely buy again.

i think that it's the best lip balm out of all the nivea lip balms i have
my lips are naturally reddish so i didn't like that it gives a red color coz if i wear it to school some teachers think I'm wearing lipstick :(
but it does leave my lips moisturized without a sticky or greasy feeling if u put the right amount on.
i've grown used to this product and i really like it far the best out of all the nivea lip balms.

This looks like a red crayon, haha.... Bought this recently and i thik its pretty good for the price. Smells nice, moisturises well and leaves my lips with a hit of colour and sheen. I like this better than Nivea Repair cuz it dosent feel too waxy.

Cons: Waxy. Not moisturizing enough to repair any damage. Pack is not "attractive." Since it's waxy, if you apply more than one thin coat it feels really uncomfortable.
Pros: pretty color if you want a warm sheer red, nice scent, not too strong.

Wouldn't repurchase, too waxy to moisturize.

I have been using this lip balm for years and must say I really like it. Its not clear, but gives lips a sheer colour that looks pretty natural. I have lips that are fairly dark naturally so I love using this to make them look more red without having to wear lipstick. You can feel the balm sitting on your lips and it doesn't feel like it totally sinks in but I dont mid this. If you do want a product that get totally absorbed you should probably avoid buying this product. Otherwise, it does a pretty good job of protecting my lips while giving it some colour.

Wow! This comes out so pigmented, but it is definitely a balm, and not a gloss. I love this strawberry shade, the soft but pigmented colour that comes out. I put it on as soon as I moisturise in the morning to ensure my lips are soft, and supple for the day ahead. I wish I could find more, but I think there are only 2 others at the chemist nearby, but definitely a bargain at $4AUD and better imo than the Cocoa Butter balm.

This is such a gorgeous lip balm that is perfect for everyday wear. It has a beautiful smell and a light, creamy consistency that just glides along lips, leaving them so soft and smooth. It hydrates and protects my lips with a lovely sheer, red tint that's not overpowering or bright; but rather like you've come in from bitter cold, snowy weather with healthy, plump lips. Even after it wears off, it leaves lips smooth and hydrated and it's so easy to reapply during the day. The tube is small enough to just pop into your pocket or purse, yet has loads of product so that it lasts ages. I love this even more than my Dr. Hauschka lip care stick; which is divine!
