meh

This stuff is okay, but the smell is a bit overwhelming and it doesn't seem to make my lips feels better. I prefer carmex or chap-stick much more.

Nice packaging, moisturizing, better than other chapsticks

I love this chapstick...applies smoothly, gives a subtle shine and has SPF. I've been using it for the past month, still good. I also apply it under lipstick, and provides a good canvas for my lips. The only downside is that it tends to wear off after a couple hours, and after you eat or drink. I have no problem reapplying anyway...since I haven't seen one dry chapped skin off my lips since i've b...read moreeen using this! I'll keep using this until I hear of a better, more long-lasting one out there.

Horrible

I just saw that this was an editor's pick and find that shocking, makes me think twice about following those tips. This stuff is horrible. It's very sticky, like putting vaseline on your lips and it smells sickeningly sweet. It also didn't keep my lips hydrated. I would use it and feel just as dry shortly after. Since I couldn' stand the feel or smell, I did not want to keep reapplying, so I ...read moreswitched back to my old standby... chapstick medicated. I've been using it ten years and will never deviate again.

I love it!

I've always had dry and chapped lips, more so when I started working in an office with 24/7 AC. Blistex silk and shine moisturizes my lips and keeps dryness away. I love that it has a subtle shine and the fact that it has spf!

OK

I really like the smell of the balm and I like that it has SPF but after a good year of using a cheap dollar lip balm that i cant find anywhere anymore, I found that this didn't moisturize my lips well, and I put a lot on. I found that after about 10 to 20 minutes i needed to put more on because my lips got really dry. I won't be buying this again.

I'm not sure if I like it

I love the smell, I love the container, and I love the way it feels on my lips right after I puut it on but after half an hour or so, my lips become flakey and rough. Chapstick and Carmex don't do that. The more I use, the worse my lips become. It smells so good though I just can't resist.

Soft and Shiny!

I love this stuff! It heals chapped lips and helps them stay smooth, plus it is shinier than most glosses!

It's alright...

This didn't feel very good. I couldn't keep it on my lips. It just felt like I rubbed some vaseline on my lips. Bleh.
