I spend a lot of time outdoors in the winter, and I need a lip balm that really moisturizes and protects from the sun. I have always been a fan of Neutrogena products, and after seeing this lip balm mentioned in an article about best balms with sunscreen (it was one of several listed), I decided to try it. It feels so good on my lips - almost like lip gloss, and it maintains the moisture for hours at a time. The tint adds a nice finished touch, but it's not so intense that you need to be looking in a mirror to apply the balm and make sure you're "staying between the lines." I have worn this on a few sunny days at this point, and my lips were fully protected from the sun. It's a nice small tube, so it's easily carried in a pocket. There's a little bit of a fruity smell when applying the balm, but I don't smell it afterwards, so that doesn't bug me. Highly recommend this lip balm. Update March 1: This lip balm passed the ultimate test by keeping my lips from getting sunburned while skiing at a very high altitude on several sunny days. This scenario is where other lip balms have failed me in the past. Read more
Although we frequently use sunscreen to protect our skin, we often forget that our lips can get sunburn too! This lip balm prevents the pain of swollen sunburnt lips. It's highly moisturizing with a multitude of beautiful colors. Lipstick, balm and spf protection all in one. What a bargain! Read more
I like the slight color and SPF. Whoever said a oblong lip balm is a good idea is wrong, in my opinion. Read more
I got the color Blush 20. I have light medium skin color. The color is so pretty, very natural --but better. The fact that this has SPF and peptides to stimulate collagen growth is a game changer for me. Perfect for everyday wear. The only negative for me, is this should ideally be a higher SPF of at least 30. But I'm using Australian Gold mineral sunscreen underneath for extra protection. Read more
This has been my go-to lip balm for several years. My lips are dry year-round and most lip balms I use leave my lips feeling waxy and don't really help heal the dryness. I like the way this one feels while wearing it -- lightly creamy without a greasy, slippery feeling. I wear subdued makeup but my chapped lips generally don't look good wearing lipstick, so the tint on this lip balm makes me feel a little more put together. I have fair skin and the Healthy Blush compliments my coloring nicely. A little pricier than other lip balms out there, but I'm willing to pay it for the effectiveness, slight tint and SPF protection. I never go without and keep one in my purse, one in my work desk drawer and one in my bathroom. Read more
The taste of this lip balm is awful. They changed it and I couldn’t stand to wear it. Love the color but just couldn’t wear it Read more
This was OK. It has a sort of melon smell which is ok but the color never looked right for me. Loved the spf protection Read more
These days, it seems every lip oil or balm claims fantastic hydration. I've been disappointed in every one... except the Neutrogena Revitalizing formula. It DOES hydrate. I may have applied it twice in a day, and by bedtime, my easily- chapped lips are still smooth. There is a definite improvement in moisture and lines when used. I've worn this off and on for 2 years. I'd use it nonstop if it offered more color varieties. I mean, it's light pinkish (Petal & Healthy Blush), light pinkish peach (Sunny Berry), barely there "caramel", a muted cranberry (Plum), and just shine. The shade selection is the only negative for me. But keep in mind, this is a lip TINT. I do think this out-performs the very expensive designer balms, at a fraction of the cost. The Revitalizer delivers its promises. Read more
