Buildable Color, Buttery Feel
I was kindly gifted by Fresh, their Sugar Tinted Lip Balm in Icon in exchange for my honest review. I love how it feels on my lips. It is just the right consistency without being too thick. It feels moisturizing and nourishing right away as soon as I apply It has a light buttery texture and yet ...

Awful new formulation - buyer beware!
This is a new formulation and it is awful. I have used the tinted balms for years and have recommended them to friends and bought them as gifts for many people - no longer. The SPF is now missing but the real deal-breaker is the texture of the new formulation - it is very heavy and drying. Plus the...

So Upset
My husband got me the color Bloom for Chrismas and I was so beyond excited because I hadn't had this product in a long time. I'm not sure if it's just the tinted ones, but it feels like a cheap childrens play lipstick. He got me a mini set of them and those are amazing, so I'm just not sure what went wrong. (The mini set contains Mint Rush, Advanced Therapy and Rosé, which are all wonderful.) I'm extremely disappointed to say the least.
Does NOT live up to Hydrating Treatment
Not sure how this got such great reviews?! I see several comments that the formula has been changed. Since the entire description is selling the hydrating treatment, I would not buy this again, and have not decided yet if I will keep or return. "Smooth, buttery texture" is definitely not how I would describe it. I bought 2 colors but it's SO NOT hydrating that I havent tried the 2nd one yet. I opened the "Icon, a classic red." I agree with the color description. It's a nice, classic, true red (on me). Even though it's very matte, and dry, it doesn't last at all. Hydrating is not a word I would use for this lip product. NO idea where the "sugar" is, either! Can't recommend this one!
Dry Lips
Cute packaging and nice tint, but it made ny lips SO dry. The first day I tried it my lips were cracked by the end of the day, since winter had just started I thought it might have been the weather. Stopped using it for a few days and gave it a second chance, same issue. I will not use it again. I'm sticking to burt's bees tinted lip balm, way more affordable and it actually works.

New formula is horrible and drying. It feels like chapstick and I also hate chapstick. Why would anyone pay this price for crap? I'm not purchasing these ever again! I mainly bought them for the spf and had many colors for years and years. Every company is doing this now, changing formulas to use cheaper ingredients, but keep the price the same or increase it. There are many other products out there for this price or cheaper that are 1000x better. Save your money.

Sadly, the negative reviews are true. Anyone who has a history with Fresh Sugar Lip Balm would agree that the new formula is absolutely NOTHING like the old one. This was my favorite lip product for years - sheer tints that were perfect for daytime plus super hydrating without being sticky. The new version just feels gross on the lips - draggy, dry and waxy- the opposite of the elegant, silky texture that earned a well-deserved cult following. Even worse, if your lips are dry, this will make them feel even dryer. I recently bought a tube, used it twice, and thought it might be defective or maybe just a problem with that color in particular. I bought another tube from a different store, in a different shade... same thing. Bottom line, maybe if you aren't familiar with the old formula and don't have expectations, you'll like what is basically expensive ChapStick. (Except that, actually, ChapStick feels better on the lips and actually helps with dryness.) My advice to fans of the former Fresh Sugar Lip Balm formula: find another product. And, if you do, please let us know what it is! And, to FRESH: please listen to the fandom and go back to the drawing board, if not the original formulation! It was PERFECTION!
