Gosh this lip balm is a dream! I have extremely dry lips due to the humidity and heat of the country I stay in and have been continuously searching for a good lip balm (Neutrogena, Burt's Bees, MAC, Vaseline etc) and I'm very glad to say I've found the one eventually! This lip balm is very soft so I have to use it gently on my lips or it'll break but it moisturizes my lips better than any other lip balm I've ever used! It isn't sticky at all but I've realized it melts under the heat but that hasn't really been a huge issue to me. I just place them in an open area (table) instead of an enclosed one (bag). The colour is also quite pigmented. On those days when I'm just lazy to use a lip balm and a lipstick or I'm rushing, I use this. I bought this during an offer in Sephora where me and my friend bought 6 of the Fresh lip balms for 41 USD. The pack contained Sugar, Passion, Berry, Rose, Coral and Honey. I thought it was a really cheap deal and a great buy. I'm glad I bought it cuz I'm loving it ever since! However I will think again before repurchasing as each single lip balm is being sold for 23 USD. But other than the price, I think this is a fantastic product.

I can't express how much I love this product. HG status! As a Canadian student who takes the bus during these awful winters my lips tend to get dry and chapped as the months drag on. Also the cold wind dries out any type of lipstick I put on my lips, and gloss gets pretty messy. This is the first product I have used which gives significant moisture, beautiful color and wears beautifully. The packaging is top notch, I love the screw on lid and sturdy metal casing. The color is so flattering on my pale skin it reminds me of fruit punch. The formula isn't overly waxy but creates a barrier over my delicate skin which doesn't feel too heavy. The smell is pleasant and it lasts an eternity. As an added perk it goes wonderfully over drier lipsticks. I will repurchase as long as they carry this.

I went to my local Sephora determined to buy the Rose shade, because I wanted a very natural flush. However, I tried them all out on my hand anyways, and finally asked a SA to come over and help me choose. She directed me to the Rose still, but at this point I was liking the way Berry looked on my skin. So the SA cleaned them off, and let me try them on. The Rose was very nice, but I needed just a little more to play up my lip color. The Berry was perfect on, and I fell in love with it. So creamy and moisturizing. Plus I ended up getting a Rose and Clear shade for my birthday sephora gift! So Happy!

A lot of people say it is too waxy and feels like it leaves a coating on their lips. Well, technically that is what a good balm should do. If it just sinks into your lips then what is it doing to protect them from sun rays, harsh winds, and anything else? There needs to be a coating left behind to seal in that moisture and create a barrier to defend.

Far better than anything I've gotten at the Drug Store. Was turned onto them by CollegeFashion.net where they did an article on the Best Splurges and if they lived up to their hype. This one certainly did:)

Love this! Turns into a cool toned red on my lips, so moisturizing too, better than any lip balm I've ever used before.

For my birthday, I bought the Sugar Berry and Sugar Coral lipbalms. I already knew I loved the formula from the birthday gift from Sephora last year, so it was just a matter of picking out the colors. I had originally planned to get the plum version, but once in store, I was really drawn to the Sugar Berry shade. While true it is more pigmented than say Sugar Rose, it still is sheer and doesn't look like lipstick (which I love). It gives my lips this sheer wash of berry color, which can be built into a deeper color with a few more swipes. It really does brighten my face, and I throw it on with next to no makeup and it still makes me look fresh. I'm really glad I chose to go with Sugar Berry over Sugar Plum since we're going into spring soon. I'm so in love with these balms, I'm thinking about going back for more!

LOVE! I don't generally wear lipstick (maybe a old fashioned red 2-3 times a year on special occasions) but this stuff is a great daily pick-me-up for your face. It adds a pop of colour with a quick swipe. I am pretty fair and it doesn't look too dark or bright.
I get tons of compliments when I wear this - no one every comments on the lip colour, they just tend to say I look really nice or "fresh". It is my secret weapon. It is pretty expensive ($22 CAN) for a glorified lip balm, but lasts a very long time and works like a charm.

I used to be a Fresh Rose lip treatment fan (and still am) but I think this stuff looks so great in the fall and winter.

I got this as part of a gift set for Christmas. And I've been loving it ever since!

As a comparison to the freebies I received from Sephora for the 2012 birthday gift, the Berry Lip Treatment is a lot more pigmented and less waxy. The Rose one (which I thought I loved), is more sheer. With more pigment and less waxiness, it means there's a lesser chance of it being smooshed in the container like the Rose one did when it got down to an itty-bitty stump. It melts a lot less easily, I also noticed. But it is still Winter right now, so its performance in the Summer has yet to be seen.

The colour is beautiful. Also really buildable. I have never been one to do bold, dark lips, but this product offers a great way to ease into that trend. One coat gives a really pretty but mature wash of colour and more coats will give you a lipstick look.

Really like the packaging and love how it has SPF. Yes it is expensive, but it has great qualities that justify it. The only setback I noticed was a patchy application at times. But this only happens when I didn't exfoliate my lips and that will make for an uneven application for EVERY lip product. Without a doubt, my favourite part of the gift set. Will definitely repurchase when I run out!

I had a gift card and really wanted this in rose since my birthday one had run out. They were out, so I tried this one. I love it! It is similar to a Clinique lipstick I had when I was in high school. It is like a very moisturizing lipstick. I can put it on without a mirror, don't need a lip liner and I get great colour pay off. I love being able to just throw it on. It is not shiny like a gloss, and the colour lasts for ages. After two months of using Fresh lip treatments my lips are softer. I am a lip product junkie and this one gets a huge thumbs up from me. It did take me a few weeks to love the rose because the colour was more subtle, but I loved this one the minute I put it on. Sephora was smart to have this as a birthday gift as I never would have forked out so much money for something I hadn't tried.

I purchased this from Sephora with a gift card, otherwise I'm not sure I would have shelled out for this incredibly expensive product. It's funny that this product is called a lip treatment: it's so pigmented it's more similar to a lipstick than a balm. You wouldn't want to apply this balm without a mirror. However, it feels extremely moist and hydrating when on. I have thin lips, and have always avoided lipsticks because they make my lips look even smaller. This product tints my lips without doing anything of the sort, if anything it makes them look fuller. That makes it a winner it my books. It's a gorgeous, natural, sexy light berry colour. Despite the price tag, I'll probably re-buy.
