I loved the delightful tingle, very reminiscent of the Carmex lip balm I currently use. I am Asian with a fairly dark complexion, so my lips are also darker red/purple and thus hard to cover with sheer lip-glosses. I ordered the raisin thinking I would need the darker shade for extra coverage, boy was I wrong, this stuff is closer to lipstick than lip balm! I usually use Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Black Honey and that is way, way lighter in pigment than this Burt's Bee's stuff. It just was too much color for me, but if lipstick that soothes is what you're lookin' for, this may be the stuff for you. I personally needed a little more wax/balm and a little less pigment/color!

The color did not come out smoothly, sort of in little chunks across my lips. When I tried to smooth it with my finger, it just looked horrible. And its consistency was just so...not pleasing. It was not sheer enough, and it did not glide well. There were only 2 good things about it: the classic peppermint smell, and the fact that the tube's plastic was mostly recycled.

Comments about Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer, Raisin, .09 oz: Nice way to add a bit of color without have to resort to lipstick or your regular lip gloss. Makes lips soft too.

Comments about Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer, Raisin, .09 oz: I received this color as part of a gift set, and it looked way too dark for me at first, but it is wonderful when mixed with a lighter color (I use champagne). If you're willing to mix colors, then you are certain to find a combination of Burt's lip shimmers which will look good on you. I guess they keep tweaking the packaging so it's hard to tell which color is which, but this color is RED, and I don't see any pink or brown tones in there anywhere. The mintiness is less intense in the shimmers than in the normal lip balm. If you want to wear lip color but have a significant other who doesn't want to taste lipstick, this is the way to go.

Comments about Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer, Raisin, .09 oz: I wanted to like this product, but it's awful. I have pale skin, but I often wear fairly dark lipstick without looking gothy. This stuff, though, makes me look like Marilyn Manson. It's not possible to put it on light enough, even with blotting and chapstick underneath, on top, or both. Worse, it stains, so you can't even wipe it off. And if the point is for it to be moisturizing, I shouldn't have to wear it with another balm. Just horrible.

Comments about Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer, Raisin, .09 oz: I love this stuff. The color alone isn't good on me, but I wear Burt's Bees Cocoa Lip Shimmer under it, which makes the color perfect. You can also wear any brown lip pencil underneath to darken the color and make it last longer. Was this review helpful?

Comments about Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer, Raisin, .09 oz: I like the tingly feeling, scent, packaging, the shimmer. The color is trickier, it doesn't match the packaging. Not as brown as I was hoping. Makes my lips look a little too flourescent pink. Maybe I'll try the plain shimmer. (1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) Was this review helpful?

I have naturally dark lips (most people think I'm wearing lipstick when I'm not!) that are a pinkish-reddish berry color. Like I said before, it is a rather dark color, so it's best if you have a tan, but a simple way to keep using it even if you're pale is to apply it either more sparingly or to blot with a tissue. This color is dramatically more flattering than Merlot, which is a harsh, bright red. If you're looking for a dark berry color, this is great. The one complaint I have is that peppermint is a little harsh on your lips, so don't use it if your lips feel really chapped. Other than that, it's a great product. Was this review helpful?

I am fair, blue eyes, mousy brownish-dirty blondish-somewhat greyish hair with a slightly ruddy tone to my skin. The color is a rich deep red that complements my coloring. This is all I need when I don't feel like putting on any eye makeup. (1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) Was this review helpful?

I picked up Watermelon and am happier with that, but none of the shades are exactly what I'm looking for. The mint sensation is wonderfully cooling! Was this review helpful?
