I bought the coconut lip balm and I really like it. It applies in a nice, thick, smooth way. It has smoothed and softened my lips even when they were very dry and scaly which is something that the Chapsticks I have used in the past have been unable to do. The coconut lip balm doesn't really have a smell or taste (the smell and taste is most like the organic filtered coconut oil you buy in jars, rather than like the artificial tropical coconut fragrance in most cosmetics) and applies in a sheer and gently shiny way. I really prefer this since strong smells trigger headaches for me. The only con of this lip balm is that I feel like I need to reapply this lip balm every 40 minutes or so if it is the only product I am wearing since once the oils in the lip balm sink into my skin, my lips feel dry again. I think that this lip balm might not be occlusive enough by itself. I don't mind reapplying it often for how comfortable and affordable it is, but usually I end up layering this lip balm under Vaseline or a lip gloss and this keeps my lips smooth and hydrated for hours.
Yo when I received this lip balm, I was surprised by how small the product was. *(Packaging)* The container is very plastic-y, quite bulky, and looks of poor quality (you know how when our moms would buy us a shimmery lip balm, as children, just to get us to shut up about buying us an actual lipstick? Well, this is probably something she would've gotten us); but hey, if the product itself works great than the packaging wouldn't be a problem.. right? *(Product)* Well, the product itself is very dense and has a VERY thicc consistency, so putting this on dry lips is like trying to spread a cold stick of butter on toast. It does however apply better after the first coat. It has a very strong sent, very fruity, and adds quite a bit of color to my lips as well as some shimmer. And I don't like that but whatever. It doesn't moisturize my lips, it's more like a coating to protect the lips. Think of it as a thicker vaseline, almost like a DIY crayon lip balm, type of feeling we all made like six years ago. *(Overall)* I wouldn't buy this again, at least not for myself. I might end up buying this for a younger cousin so she feels cute or whatever

I got the cherry and really like it. Nice and moisturizing. I have sensitive lips and it did not bother me. Love the color it added too.

These lip balms are not very moisturizing. I also noticed they don't stay on too long.
nicolina from michigan
such a cute lip tint, great price too!!
Angie from los angeles
It's just an OK lip balm. The pros are that it gives a lovely color and smells good (i got cherry). The cons are that it doesn't last long and i find myself going over it multiple times in order to feel any kind of moisture.

This is a great lip balm to keep in your purse at all times. The coconut smell was mild and not over bearing. It leaved your lips soft and does not feel like plastic.

I got the pineapple scented one. it goes on smooth but doesn't last that long. smells nice. the packaging is really cheaply make and breaks easily. my sits on my bedside table, and it's fallen over on its side a few times, not hard but somehow the clear top part is cracking all up at the base. it's just really cheap plastic.

I got the strawberry and it smells and tastes great. It's fairly moisturizing. The surprise was the color, it's bright and pretty pigmented for a balm. The first time I tried it I quuckly put it on with no mirror, and had a bit of clown mouth, haha.
PW from Phoenix, AZ
It's a simple lip balm, but I really like it. I got the cherry one and it smells and tastes great. Love the flush of color it gives too.

COCONUT LUST: The lip balm smells just like coconut and it's so good. It does moisturize my lips but I have to reapply it every few minutes. I recommend wearing this under a matte liquid lipstick since it's not too glossy of a balm. The packaging is also very cute. Worth the price.
Christina from NY
The color and smell is fab!
Anon from USA
I absolutely love this product. I have it in the raspberry scent and it smells amazing. The formula leaves my lips feeling soft. The only "con" is the packaging is pretty cheap. I would definitely purchase again and try the other scents.

I needed a new lip balm as I go through them like CRAZY! Ordered online to pick up curbside and I was shocked to see this balm is shimmery! I love the formula, the great taste, AND it's vegan! The shimmer isn't overwhelming like a child's lip balm, but it may be too much for some. I'm 26, and I think it's perfect! It gives me a gorgeous little sheen that adds to my no makeup routine. I will definitely be returning for more as gifts, and for myself! Perfect, inexpensive product!

I bought two they are very moisturizing coconut is definitely my favorite smell I also got pineapple not my favorite smell but it's also nice
bun from usa
feels like a stick of wax on you lips and have to drag it hard across to get it to come off
Morgan from LA
Ok first off, I saw a few people commenting about how the package was bulky?? Would you rather have cheap, thin packaging that doesn't protect the lip balm?? Anyway. I like it! It smells so so good. The first application is a bit rough being it's fresh so it won't be smoothed over like a balm would be after a few uses (you know what I mean?). I suggest taking your finger and just lightly rubbing the top to soften it and you're good to go. I have the strawberry one and it's super pigmented, but it enhances my natural lip color so I love it. I put a little bit on my lips and then take a chapstick I have and lightly go over it and it works for me.

Hydrated, smells great
Boo the butcher from Centre Hall, PA
I love everything about this product! Every flavour smells and tastes amazing, and the subtle tint in raspberry, strawberry, and cherry and really nice. Love a vegan formula too, that's why I tried them. I tried them all once and then when it was time to replace them I bought $40 worth of them so I don't run out anytime soon. That's commitment.

It does nothing for my lips it doesn't even moisturize my lips it was a waste of money
Han from Southern pines NC
I put this on anytime i want a little more color on my lips... I picked a more red color tint because i prefer it but they had so many other options. This lip balm smells amazing and doesn't feel waxy which is a big thing for me when I purchase any type or lip products. 10/10 would recommend
