Winky Lux Citrine Balm pH Lip Balm

Just purchased this from my local Ulta yesterday. I saw the color and it was absolutely gorgeous! I regret the purchase though because after using it I have an EVERLASTING terrible taste in my mouth. Nothing helps get rid of it!!

I recently discovered a lip balm that has completely transformed my skincare routine, and I can't stop raving about it. From its luxurious exterior to the way it works its magic on my lips, this lip balm is an absolute game-changer. At first glance, the packaging immediately caught my attention. The gold decal on the outside of the container gives it a sophisticated and elegant feel. It's sleek and stylish, making it not only a functional beauty product but also a little piece of luxury to carry around in my bag. I can already tell that the attention to detail in the design speaks volumes about the quality of what's inside. When I first opened the lip balm, I was even more impressed by what I saw. The balm itself is beautifully crafted and resembles a cotirine crystal—a delicate and almost otherworldly shape. The crystal-like appearance of the balm gives it an aura of elegance and refinement, making it feel like something special. It's rare to come across a lip product that combines both aesthetics and function so seamlessly, and this one has done just that. What I love most about this lip balm, however, is the way it feels on my lips. It's incredibly smooth and hydrating, leaving my lips soft and supple. I often find myself reaching for it throughout the day just to keep my lips moisturized and nourished. The balm glides on effortlessly without being sticky or greasy, which is a huge plus for me. Some lip balms can feel heavy or leave a weird residue behind, but this one just sinks right in, leaving my lips feeling refreshed and pampered. One of the most impressive features of this lip balm is its ability to add a subtle tint of color to my lips. When I first applied it, I wasn't expecting it to make such a noticeable difference, but within a minute of putting it on, my lips began to transform. The color shifts gradually, giving my lips a soft, natural-looking hue that enhances my overall complexion. It's as if the balm adapts to the natural chemistry of your lips, giving you a personalized tint that looks incredibly natural and flattering. The process of seeing the color change is almost magical. There's something so satisfying about watching my lips go from their natural shade to a more vibrant, yet still subtle, color. It's like the balm is enhancing my lips' natural beauty rather than covering it up. I'm particularly fond of how the tint doesn't overpower my look, but instead adds a soft flush that's perfect for everyday wear. It's a perfect balance between a hydrating lip balm and a lip color that doesn't feel too bold or high-maintenance. I find that this lip balm is the ideal product for when I want to add just a touch of color to my lips without going for a full-on lipstick or gloss. It's so effortless to apply; you don't need a mirror or any precise technique. It's the perfect product to throw on while I'm on the go—whether I'm running errands, heading to work, or meeting friends for coffee. The ease of use combined with the beautiful finish makes it a staple in my beauty bag. In addition to its moisturizing properties and tinting ability, I also appreciate that this lip balm doesn't dry out my lips over time. Some lip balms can leave your lips feeling drier after a few hours, but not this one. Instead, it keeps my lips nourished and hydrated throughout the day. This is a major plus, as I've had experiences with other lip balms that promised hydration but ended up making my lips even more parched after the product wore off. With this lip balm, I don't have to worry about that at all. My lips stay soft and smooth, even after I've reapplied it a few times. Another thing I've noticed is that the color lasts for a reasonable amount of time. While it's not as long-lasting as a traditional lipstick, it's certainly more durable than many other tinted lip balms I've tried. The color slowly fades throughout the day, but it leaves behind a gentle, even tint that doesn't require constant touch-ups. This makes it a low-maintenance option for those of us who don't want to constantly worry about our lip color fading or smudging. I also love how versatile this lip balm is. Depending on how much you apply, you can get a range of different looks. If you want a more natural, understated finish, you can apply a single layer. For a slightly bolder look, you can build up the color by applying a second or third layer. Either way, the result is always a beautiful, natural flush of color that enhances your lips without looking too heavy-handed. Overall, I'm completely in love with this lip balm. It has quickly become one of my favorite beauty products, and I can't imagine going a day without it. The combination of gorgeous packaging, luxurious crystal-like balm, and the subtle yet noticeable color transformation makes it stand out from other lip products on the market. I can't recommend it enough for anyone who's looking for a lip balm that not only hydrates but also adds a touch of color and elegance to their beauty routine. It's become a must-have in my daily routine, and I'm sure it will continue to be for a long time. I was sent this lip balm for review purposes, but all opinions and experiences shared are my own.

NEW OBSESSION UNLOCKED! I typically don't wear a lot of lipstick, so I lean more towards balms with redish/pink tint. I absolutely love the packaging, and the balm in general —it's beyond aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and it goes on smoothly, leaving a faint pink-tint behind that compliments me greatly. This brand's lip products are my new favorite go-to's, I don't think I'll find anything that comes close!

I love this so much the color is a beautiful pink shade and it looks so boujie. It's worth it. My only problem is it does not taste very good but you can mask it with a better tasting gloss.

As someone who loves multi-functional beauty products, I was really excited to try the Winky Lux PH Lip Balm—and it did not disappoint. I picked the Citrine shade, hoping for a warm-toned pink with a soft, semi-glossy finish, and that's exactly what I got. It's the perfect everyday lip product that strikes a balance between a nourishing balm and a sheer, wearable lipstick. One thing I truly appreciate is that it's unflavored, which is a major win for me since many lip products can be overly sweet or artificial-tasting. The texture is incredibly smooth and silky—it glides on effortlessly and leaves my lips feeling hydrated, not sticky or heavy. There's no uncomfortable stretching or cakey look; just soft, moisturized lips with a natural flush of color. The packaging is another standout—it's compact, adorable, and ultra-convenient. It fits easily into my smallest purse or even a jeans pocket, making it the perfect on-the-go essential. I was also pleasantly surprised by how long the color and moisture lasted throughout the day. If you're looking for a lightweight, hydrating lip balm with a hint of color and zero fuss, this one is a must-try.
