this is probably my HG of lip balm/glosses. this leaves my lips soft and full for hours and has a goregous dewy look when applied. this goes perfect with my lightly pigmented lips because they feel plump and pretty, not thin and washed out. best gloss i've ever tried, definitely worth the $10.50!

I got this product as a GWP. It's a nice lip balm with a hint of color. It kept my lips nicely moisturized. My only complaint is that I think the product is slightly sticky, but not so much so that I wouldn't use it. I liked the squeeze tube.

I got this in a swap and just bought 2 more today! I am in love. It makes my lips super soft and the tint is the perfect shiny pink. I like that the applicator is a slant tip and it is big enough to cover the lip area unlike the tiny one on the Kiehl's balms. The texture is smooth and is not goopy or sticky. I would recommend this to everyone as it is sheer enough for most if not all skin tones. (NW20-LLL)

This is the best lip gloss ever, I can't wait til they get it more colors. It is SUPER SHINY, but what I love most is that is FEEL GREAT on lips- soothing, moisturizing, silky soft...my lips feel great after using it and kissable when I have it on. Raspeberry is my fave color, but I have the ones too. This is my all-time favorite LIP GLOSS!

I have recently come to the conclusion that I should always have on my person, a tinted lipbalm---my lips are naturally, ridiculously pale! A very light pink tint, nice moisturizing fomula, is lasting very well through frequent usage. I just wish it had a stronger fruity flavor/scent to it! I LOVE my L'Oreal Shine Delice lipsticks for several reasons, but a big one is the scent they have---OH MY GOODNESS---I would eat them if I could---they smell that awesome!

It's a good product that gives you a natural reddish tint and it actually moisturizes my lips. It's two in one product, because it provides me with a natural color and the lip balm treatment. The packaging is very good because the slanted tip makes for easy application and it's small so I can carry it in my pocket. However, for the amount you get, it is far too expensive and this is the only thing that would make me not purchase it again. Clinique should either lower the price or increase the amount of product they give you.

I have only used this ONCE.....and I have had it for at least 8 months. I guess that says how I feel about this. It is too thick and waxy feeling. As soon as I put it on I want to wipe it off! The color is so-so....basic raspberry sheer color. No flavor, which might have helped. Needless to say, I am regretting my purchase!!

This is the first tinted lip balm i have ever tried but i have to say that i absolutely LOVE IT!! It does what you expect from a lip balm which moisturises your lips very well. It's long lasting but not sticky. The texture is thick and it takes a bit of effort to squeeze it out from the tube. One drawback for me is the colour doesnt seem to be be what i like. I guess this could be deal with my natural colour of my lips. I am still very happy about this product.

i love this. its just fantastic. lips really shimmer (very inviting for kisses) plus it feels great esp on days when i feel like i have flaky and dry lips. goes fantastic over my sweet honey clinique lipstick. yum. i went back to the shops the wk after i bought my first to stock up on an additional one cos they were on sale. really a great gloss. better than my previous favs - shu uemura. tried red earth too but its lousy. must admit though that i think its grossly overpriced. [update - i went and got in grape as well!][ update again - i am on to my 2nd raspberry tube now and hv 1 more in stock!]

I love this product! It really fixes messed up lips, and leaves a really pretty reddish (but not cherry like) tint. I haven't been able to find a gloss this perfect anywhere else. But i have to say, this product is a bit over priced. It is about the size of an nyc kiss gloss that is only 2.99 or so, and this is $11! It looks like a mini size thing that would come in a gift package. But atlease im not the one paying for it, so it doesn't matter :)

Clinique Superbalm is an excellent product. I have this in Raspberry tint and it imparts the tiniest bit of berry color and shine. Perfect when you want just a little something, but not too much. The consistency is very thick and emollient, but not sticky (IMO). Personally, I think this is very similar to Philosophy's kiss my red in both color and consistency. However, I like this product much better because it comes in a squeeze tube rather than a pot that you have to dip your fingers in.

I have a lot of glosses and balms - too many! The problem is, that I hardly ever use them because it's tedious to carry them around and reapply.
That is the great thing about the Superbalm. It fits in my pocket and I don't need a mirror to reapply. It gives the lips color and shine. I love all my glosses, but this is a lip product that I actully use!!

I'm totally loving this balm/gloss...I've loved the look of gloss but hated how my lips looked over-coated and plasticky or the gloss would dry out my lips. This long-lasting balm looks like a natural gloss with a slight pink tint that just looks like a healthy pink flush. I love that this product moisturizes as well as looks great. Also, instead of carrying a separate balm and gloss (and ending up only using the balm), I can just carry around one product and get the features of both a balm and a gloss in one tube. Also, the price is extremely reasonable at $10.50, and comes in a super-convenient slant-tip tube applicator (no re-dipping of a wand or sticking my finger in a goopy gloss pot!)

With as much as I love the untinted Superbalm, I had to give this a try... I almost love it as much as the original!! It gives your lips a sheer berry tint that does seems very natural.
This is moisturizing and glossy without being sticky!
Great item and would highly recommend!

I already have the original Superbalm so I thought that I'd like the same conditioning treatment but with colour so I bought this. The texture of this is lovely, thick, not too sticky - the consistency feels pleasant. The colour of this on the lips is quite sheer, it lets your own natural lip colour show thru but darkens them slightly to a "I've-made-an-effort-but I-don't-need-to-try-too-hard" way. It's a trendy berry shade that isn't overpowering (altho, I'm a Chinese olive-skinned, so it takes a strong colour to overpower my colouring) It doesn't have any taste whatsoever, which I like. I LOVE the little tube it comes in. It looks expensive and is quite cute. In the tube the balm looks a similar colour to my Juicy Tube Framboise but I find the Superbalm's colour is stronger. I'm definitely giving up my JT for this Superbalm. I really do like this but i wouldn't buy it again, purely because I like my lips to have a beig-y brown-y pink-y colour to them instead of the berry shade that this Superbalm provides. Great formulation though and makes my lips really soft. Will have a look at the other two colour choices next time.

I use this so frequently I've almost run out of it in less than two weeks! The Raspberry Tint leaves behind nary a hint of colour, but I don't mind much since what I love most about the Superbalms is the amazing moisture they give my lips. I love these things!

I am shocked at the price of this lip balm. It's Clinique, sheesh!!!It's kind of a copy of Kiehl's Tinted Lip Balms in the tube (I know Clinique had it first, but still...), except that the Kiehl's is MUCH better quality, gives you twice as much product, has better colors that actually show up, has SPF 15, AND costs $3 less!! WTF? I just don't get it. Kiehl's is much better quality than this stuff. The product is basically clear when it goes on, and overly shiny and gluey. The price would be outrageous for a good balm, but for this, it's beyond belief.

I'm on my 2nd tube of this. I love the original Superbalm, and the Raspberry is awesome as well. The color is very, very sheer, but since I am pale and my lips aren't super-pigmented, it shows up just enough to be worth it. I find that it looks great over lipliner, and the consistency is perfect for me. I honestly think I have found my holy grail lip product with Superbalm (dare I say that?) :)

My resolve not to buy this lasted all the way from the parking lot to the Clinique Counter at my local Filene's (about 5 minutes.) While the packaging and fruit punchy colors are attractive, this leaves a barely discernible tint. On me, it felt really heavy and sticky, but ironically did not last very long. I think I'll stick with my BB tube tints, which are longer lasting and have a lighter texture and nicer scent.
