This lip balm marries both intense hydration with a supersheer pink hue that enhances your pout. In the center, you'll find a nourishing core enriched with cupuaçu butter, derived from the rainforest, which heals and quenches as it protects lips from free radicals. This ingredient can attract 240% more water, leaving lips suppler and softer with every swipe. Apply while on the go for a boost of moisture and natural-looking color—no mirror required.
This sample balm feels good on my lips and I like the idea of a little color with a balmy middle core. But the color is too frosty/semi-sparkly and ends up looking cakey given the consistency of the product. I can’t imagine what it would look like when my lips are more dry in the winter. Also, the smell is off-putting. Not sure I could handle the smell on any regular basis.
3I ADORE Adesse’s NY Sweet Almond Cuticle Oil, so I was delighted to try another Adesse product. This is a lovely little balm - moisturizing with a delicately sheer pink color. It’s by my bedside so my lips stay soft and sweet. It does require frequent reapplications. Would I spend $24 on this balm? No. There are many others of the same quality for less.
(Sidebar: The most gloriously rich, most satiny smooth, longest lasting balm is BY TERRY Baume de Rose from BB’s The Lips on Lock Kit. Sublime! All other balms pale in comparison.)
this is the most hydrating, long lasting, effective lip balm i've used in my life. you don't need to apply a lot, and it works great as a base for lip products. i apply it apply exfoliating, before bed, and before i go out. i barely notice the pinkish color it leaves since there's already quite a bit of color in my lips naturally, and like someone else said, it smells INCREDIBLE. highly recommend!
5Immediately the butter goes on smoothly. The tint is perfect and the shine beautiful. It's a comforting lip balm. I've looked high and low for perfection and this is it! I've read several negative reviews, but those folks are obviously having a bad day--literally, this balm is a MUST HAVE. I will not be without it! If you're smart buy the bigger tube and your hunt is over. I know mine is! Love, love, love!
