I had to write to address the "smell" issue mentioned by the other commenter. Yes, it smells sweet (and I would prefer to have no scent at all), but I don't find the smell sickeningly sweet at all. It is rather mild and is more that counteracted by the smooth and creamy application and the subtle color imparted.
That is the one thing I would note for other potential buyers, I bought the red dahlia color (and I'm asian) and the color was very slight on my lips (kind of a bitten lip effect). Perfect for me, but maybe not to everyone's liking.
Burt's Bees got this product right in all respects except for one, and it's major. There's a natural "flavor"/fragrance that smells just like Twizzler's red licorice. It's truly disgusting. I was pretty disappointed because everything else is perfect. The formula goes on very smooth and is highly moisturizing. It looks a little glossy with the right amount of pigment (not too much). And the packaging is plush enough that I would buy these as a cute small addition to a gift for a girlfriend.
I bought this in two colors, but after one use, immediately threw them in the trash. Such a waste. Am hoping the company will remove the sickeningly sweet candy-like scent (and not replace it with another heavy scent like vanilla or misc "tropical"). Then this lip balm will be perfect.
