Lucy B. Tinted Lip Balm - Ruby Red Gloss Balm

The gloss balm promises to hydrate, smooth and protect lips. The lip balm is enriched with natural shea butter, Australian flower essence and vitamin E. The lip balm has a delicate scent and goes on smoothly. It had a slight tacky feeling but it left my lips feeling soft and smooth. The creamy lip balm also left a soft tint on my lips.

The cult classic lip balm in now in a stick format, which means less sticky fingers! I have tried a couple of TBS lip products and they are usually hit or miss. The lip balm supposedly has a transparent shimmer but I didn’t see anything. The lip balm does impart a slight subtle shine but like the shimmer it’s hardly apparent. The lip balm does moisturize and condition my lip and has a sweet scent --- I could see how it can be considered a pomegranate scent but I wouldn’t consider it pomegranate, if I was smelling it for the first time. A very average lip balm, I might get it again if it was heavily discounted, otherwise I would stick with the basics -  Chapstick/Nivea/Blistex.

Skinfix Lip Repair Balm

The lip balm promises to hydrate and restore dry lips. The flavor and fragrance free lip balm is packed with coconut and jojoba oil to keep lips hydrated and supple. It is free of gluten, parabens and phthalates.  The balm went on smoothly but left my skin a bit greasy. However, I found myself constantly reapplying as my skin felt dry throughout the day.

The moisturizing gel lip balm is enriched with shea butter and jojoba seed oil. The sheer lip balm nourish and condition lips. The soft raspberry color is imparted on my lips upon application along with a soft glistening shine. It's a nice mix of a lip tint and a lip balm. I wish the containers though felt a bit more luxurious and not so plastic-y feeling.

TBS Born Lippy Pomegranate Lip Balm

The cult favorite lip moisturizer is now in the stick format. I love TBS lip balms but hate the tubs since my fingers are not always clean. The new stick format was easier and more portable as well. The lip balm promises to give a pop of color, a bit of shimmer and shine, condition and moisturize lips.  I didn't notice any shimmer or color but my lips were soft and moisturized but it didn't last very long. The lip balm had a sweet pomegranate scent but no flavor.
