Do not recommend at all
I was given this as a gift and it kind of feels like watered down lotion going on, does not make my lips feel less chapped, i feel i need to reapply after 3 minutes. Would not buy again

Works better than anticipated
I had low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. I love the dual use. I have really dry skin in the fall and winter and this revives my lips and my cuticles.

Feels nice but doesn't last
I do think this is good for people who don't have super dry lips or bite them constantly like I do but it just wasnt for me. I but this under and over a colourpop lipstain and it works really well. Theres no separating and it keeps my lips full. The problem for me was that it just didn't last very long. For the money I'd rather use Jack Black lip balm or a byoma lip oil.

Weirdly drying
I just read other reviews and I guess I'm not crazy — this product seemed to actually dry my lips out. I used it for about a week and it always felt great going on, but it always left my lips dry later on. After cracks started showing up I stopped using it and eventually my lips went back to normal.

A BIG No from Me
I thought I'd love this product - squalene, amino acids. What's not to love? Well. I noticed that whenever I'd use this product, my lips would *completely,* dry out. Like "Help-I'm-stranded-in-the-Mojave-and-haven't-had-water," dry. I've tried it for lip basting; I've tried it as a regular lip balm throughout the dsy; I've tried it at night; I've tried it post exfoliation. Still got Crypt Keeper lips. Hard pass.

eh
so I can appreciate what they were trying to do. but I feel it fell short. for me I found it was actually drying and had an off smell to it, but I also felt it was sticky on my lips. I do like the packaging as it's convenient and easy to use and the lid doesnt pop off, but the product just felt short for a lip balm thats almost $10.

Best Lip Balm I have tried ever
This has turned out to be one of my favorite lip balms ever! I am a guy who fails to hydrate properly, so a good lip balm when the temperature gets colder is something I look for, and this one has checked every box in my list. From it's not existent scent, its smooth creamy texture and ease of use, this lip balm quenches my dried lips and makes them look so healthy in no time. Paired up with a bit of the ordinary hyaluronic acid serum, it creates a great combination to keep my lips radiant and hydrated for the rest of the day. If you are looking for a great lip balm, definitely give this one a try!

Smells weird but works great!
It smells faintly of Fish Oil tablets but it fades quickly, so I don't think it's a big deal. I only need to use a tiny bead to cover both of my fuller lips and it works great! Very moisturizing and mixes well with both liquid and bullet lipsticks.

I'm torn.
At its price point, the product works quite well. It is hydrating without being too heavy or thick feeling. The obvious downfall is that the packaging is tough to use, especially if you lack decterity in your fingers. Im anticipating not being able to get about half the product out. Would buy it again? Probably not, there are SO many lip products that outcompete this one. Is the right fit for others? Sure!

LOVE
I love this. It is more like a lip lotion or treatment rather than a balm though. I use it once in the morning and once at night, then seal it with some aquaphor. My lips are so smooth and plump after using it!

not for people who need it
if you struggle with chapped lips dont buy. the only effective balm for me has been thick like aquaphor and the topicals salve. this one... it's like nothing. oily and watery feel. absorbs quickly but lips don't feel hydrated. only pro is that it's nonsticky.

Do not buy
It leaves a white film on your lips and doesnt moisturize at all. I started to develop lottle bumps on my lips after using it.
