I need to learn to stay away from Walgreens. I always come out of there with some kind of makeup product . Anyway as you know L'Oreal Paris had came out with their own line of lip balm to compete with the Revlon Lip butter. However they are not the same thing. There is some distinct difference between the two.
PIGMENTATION
These lip balm are on the sheer side, even thou they are build-able you will get more of the moisturizer then the pigmentation. So they do have a slight tint. Unlike it competitor (Revlon) which is more like a lipstick then a lip balm so more of the pigmentation shows more. I guess that why there is more of a color selection.
FORMULA
It is SPF15 which is great, nice to wear all year round . It is extremely moisturizing not sticky at all. The texture of the balm is more of an oil based then anything. Not to many people would like that. That is just my personal preference. I don't like sticky base gloss or like balm Even thou you really can not compare the two.
FLAVOR/SCENT
The aroma reminds of a MAC lipstick.A Cotton candy scent it is very light. As for flavor it has none what so ever. So you don't have to worry about licking your lips. LOL
PACKAGING
The overall design is modern with a gold interlocking angled tube. The lid is semi transparent. Which is nice because it feels like a high end lipstick even thou it a lip balm.
COLOR SELECTION
The line only came out with 8 colors.Which simply lags when it comes to color selection. I feel like four out of the eight colors are very nude there nice don't get me wrong. But they are on the sheer side so they are not that noticeable on the lips. You only see the color in the tube.
OVERALL SUMMARY
After testing these lip balms for about two weeks now. They hold up pretty nicely. Just like any lip balm you will have to reapply every now and then. The moisture is long lasting compared to it competitors (Revlon Lip butter). The packing is elegant and it smell nice too. The only down fall is the range of shades most of them appear identical from one to another. Would I repurchase these again. Yes I would, only because I would treat these like a lip balm and not a lipstick. The overall factor of these is how moisturizing these are that sold me.
