Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I first saw this lip balm at Walmart and bought it because of the unique shape of the tube and the fact that it has sun protection and I could not be more pleased! 1. SPF 20: Regular lip gloss ENHANCES sun damage, so having sun protection is essential. (I work outside a lot.) This product helped the dark brown edges on my lips (from wearing regular lip gloss in the sun before I knew it was the cause) fade almost completely. 2. Rich color, but not overpowering: Gorgeous color! (I have only tried "Fresh Plum," but plan on buying others.) The color looks dark in the tube, but wound up matching my natural lip color almost perfectly (I'm on the pale/ivory scale of things.) It makes me look full of color altogether and makes my lips look healthy and soft. I wear it day AND night, because it goes with anything and everything. Makeup on, or not. 3. The shape of the tube: It's as if you took a round lip balm tube and flattened it a bit. This wound up being more than just interesting; It makes application more precise (on the bow of my lips, etc.), and fits in a clothing pocket AND in my purse better. 4. One of my favorite things: it smells (but has no flavor at all) like a fresh, unripened banana. The familiar smell bugged me and I was thinking of some kind of plant or flower until I figured it out. My mom, sister and friend all agreed that it really is like a green banana. Weird, but true. And awesome. Just makes applying it that much more pleasant. 5. Texture/quality: This product is not waxy at all whatsoever. It's like a very soft, creamy lipstick in a way, but applies like a lip gloss, but isn't overly glossy. It glides on softly and smoothly, and lasts for hours. My lips are perpetually chapped, but if I happen to keep up with applying this product several times a day, the result is softer, smoother lips. It isn't miraculous--they will be chapped again if I stop using it--but even as it's wearing off, my lips are soft and much smoother. (My boyfriend will concur.) I highly recommend this product, and can't wait to try the other shades. I hope they all smell the same. Lol
